Hey Everyone!

​I am here being creative with Fun Stampers Journey!

For today's project I am using the Bloom Burst Stamp Set along with their Color Burst Pencil Set!  I chose to use my Arteza Water Color Paper.  Now know, this paper has a very rough feel...  that is something that I do look for when coloring with colored pencils...  

I used my stamp positioning tool to stamp my image and sentiment...  I knew there was going to be multiple stamps, LOL...

Let the coloring begin...  I really liked these pencils and must create with them more...  Very pigmented and smooth...  I feel another video coming out about these...  LOL

Hello Everyone!

I am here today Celebrating with Scrapping for Less! 

​I cannot believe it has been 2 years since Scrapping for Less unveiled the first Flavor of the Month Card Kit. From selling 10 kits that first month; 5 of those being subscriptions to hundreds each month only 2 years later; I feel truly blessed to be able to bring this program to you each month. But not only that, I feel truly blessed to call each and every one of my customers part of the SFL family. 

​So, this month we bring you a whole kit of Celebrations, Ice Cream Celebrations, Baby Celebrations, Birthday Celebrations, and Friendship Celebrations. Thanks so very much for all of your support. 

​Let's get to some inspiration!  Here are three cards I made from the kit!  Stop by my YouTube Channel to see more!

​Hello Everyone!

I am back today with another Design Team Project for Birch Press Designs! We are going to work with the Calen Layering Die Set and add a sentiment using the Believe Sugar Script die.

The best place to start always is let’s get out pieces die cut all at once.  So, we will have a die cut from each layer of Calen and I decided to cut 6 from ivory card stock for my sentiment.

​Once we have every die cut, we can now start gluing it all together!  

​I started with my sentiment, by cutting 6 this will create a heavy chip board piece across our focal point.  Now we can glue together the three layers of Calen.  I chose a brown, Ivory and Pool color for each of my layers.

I grabbed a piece of Navy-blue card stock for my back drop and set my focal point slightly above center.  I cut a strip ¾ inches wide to stretch across the card front, but it will also separate the center of the Calen die cut from the outer ring!

I then set the sentiment over the center circle and adhered my design panel onto my standard A2 size card base using my liquid adhesive and added a few ivory gems to add a bit of sparkle to our card!

Hello Everyone!

I am here today with Rubber Stamp Tapestry featuring their Poppy Wreath Peg Stamp Set!

For today's project let's make a Birthday Card! ...and yes, let's try to bring Spring in faster...  LOL...  This set has 4 pegs, 2 poppy flowers, 1 leaf and 1 branch design...

As always when I use my peg stamps I always grab for my memento dew drops!  I think it has just become habit at this point!  But I do enjoy the colors that Memento offers in their ink pads...

I also used their Wrought Iron Planter Rubber stamp set.  I love these images, and they are a perfect match with peg stamp set!  After I was done stamping my images, I used the Happy Birthday sentiment from their 'Happy' Clear Stamp set!

If you are interested in any of the products I used just look below and they are listed - for a full list of products check out my video description!
