Mr. Brown was REALLY good to me today! We got all the new releases from My Mind's Eye and some new stamps from Holly Berry House . Aren't they just beautiful???
As always, you can click on New Arrivals to see what's new in the store!
I think this just might be my favorite Halloween stamp! Okay...I may say that at least once more before Halloween gets here. LOL!
I SO loved coloring this Wispy Witch from Northwoods Rubber Stamps! All I did was stamp it on watercolor paper using Versafine Onyx Black ink. Then I embossed with Detail Clear embossing powder, and colored with my Tombow Markers . I added a little Orange Peel Stickles to the buckle on her belt and shoes for some sparkle.
The patterned paper is from my stash. I used a Martha Stewart Bats Corner Punch on all four corners of the orange dp. Then I punched some bats out of black cardstock and adhered them to the main panel using my Quickie Glue Pen .
The cardstock is Kiwi Prismatics and Majestic Purple .
I'm hurriedly writing this on my lunch hour, so I hope I didn't miss anything. If I did, be sure to let me know.
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by my blog today!
for Ice Cream! Sorry...I've been singing that song since I started this card! LOL!
I did something a little different this weekend. I STAMPED! Yesterday morning I got up at 6 am and went to the grocery store (without makeup)! In addition to buying groceries, I made my deposits through the ATM since the bank wasn't open, and I was back home and ready to stamp before 8 am! Whew! 
I was so excited to get to color this adorable new stamp from Stampavie . It was designed by a new artist named Tina Wenke, and the stamp is called Mouse Holding Ice Cream .
I stamped it on watercolor paper using Onyx Black Versafine ink, then embossed with JudiKins Detail Clear embossing powder. The image was colored using Tombow Markers and a damp paint brush.
I put a coat of JudiKins Diamond Glaze on the cherry and the dish to make it appear glass-like.
To embellish I added Olive/Ivory Plaid ribbon, and put two Spring Green Candy Dots on the lower right side.
On the inside I used a sentiment from JustRite Stampers Birthday Wishes set, then cut it using my Spellbinders Labels One Nestabilities .
The cardstock used is Kiwi Prismatics , Yellow Prismatics and Classic Red Prismatics .
Thanks for stopping by today. I will be back soon with something new. Until then...
The new i-top tool from Imaginisce is here. Be sure to watch this video to see what's it all about and how it works. You can find it in the store HERE .
As I said yesterday, it was a wild and crazy weekend with the grands here. But I DID manage to make one card before all the craziness began!
The stamp I used for this card is Northwoods Tree Trunk Birdhouses rubber stamp. I chose this one because I haven't colored anything in a while and I felt the need. It's so relaxing to me!
I stamped the image on watercolor paper using Onyx Black Versafine ink, then embossed with JudiKins Detail Clear embossing powder. The stamped image was colored using Tombow Markers and a damp paint brush.
The designer paper is Basic Grey Wassail and the cardstock is Prismatics Blush Red Dark and Prismatics Herbal Green.
The panels on each side and on the bottom of the inside were cut using my Spellbinders Labels Four Nestabilities. I added two Robin's Nest Dew Drops to each side of the front panel for texture and balance.
The sentiment on the inside is Northwoods Script Merry Christmas . I just love that beautiful font!
I hope you're all having a great Tuesday! Thanks for taking the time to stop by my blog today.
Whew! I'm still trying to recover! LOL!
All the grands were here this weekend...and we were soooooooo busy! Lots to do, I tell ya! We played with the foamy sticky things, made shrinky dinks, swam in the pool, cooked on the grill, popped popcorn, put together puzzles, and a multitude of other things. They left late yesterday afternoon to go home, and I'm here to tell you I'm still whipped. Too much action for this old lady! LOL~
Yesterday morning VERY early before anyone else got up, Dylan (my 9 year-old grandson) and I were up and in my studio. Together, we made this little prayer book for him before they went to church. He was soooo excited about it. I thought of the idea the night before after everyone was asleep. I remembered these awesome bible verse stamps I bought from Julee at Verve a month or so ago. And I thought it would be just the perfect project for us this morning!
Each page is cut from a blue cardstock which measures 2.5" x 4". The white cardstock we stamped on was 1/8" smaller for layering. On the front cover we stamped the cross from Notes of Prayer with VersaMark Ink and embossed it with silver embossing powder.
Each of the pages was stamped with a different verse from the Plain Janes by Verve. I just love every one of them!
The book is held together with a blue brad in the corner. He didn't want ribbon. I get it. He's a boy! :-) The good thing is that we can add to it as I acquire more bible verse stamps. Maybe that means I should do some more shopping, huh?
Dylan was SO proud of his book. He took it to church with him to show off in his Sunday school class.
Thanks for stopping by. I will be back soon with something new. Until then...
The postman was good to me today! She brought me all these GORGEOUS new stamps from the new Sarah Kay Collection and Tina Wenke ! And oh...I DO love them all!!!
