Roses And Rocks.

Hello!!  I thought it fitting, with all the fabulous January birthdays out there, that I bring you a little stamped jewelry/card combo---perfect for gifting on birthdays or any days!

I absolutely adore this amazing Rose image!  And with all those layers, the Cross Stitch stamp is the perfect way to ground them.  I'm SO in love with that little stamp!!

And finally, here's a little wearable piece of stamped goodness :-)

I've stamped it with the super versatile cloud stamp from Plate 910A.  How fun is that?  Perfect texture, and you'd never know it was a cloud!  Love.

This dreamy color palette came from the Lindy's Stamp Gang January Color Challenge, so hop on over and check it out!!

Together, I think this combo makes for one HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!  Thanks so much for joining me today, and I'll see ya next time!

xx,

SNOW.

Here's what I came up with...

This wintery card features some fun and frosty stamping, using Lindy's as the ink!  I love the soft watercolor look it gives...

 A bit of glitter altered up these alphas to give them the sparkle a proper Christmas card needs, and a bit of glitter splatter adds even MORE shine!

Vellum embellies soften the color and adds to that 'frosted' feel of my stamping, while a bit of doodling helps fill a bit more of the white space.

Here's a list of all the Lindy's goodness I've used:

Tweedle Dee Denim Flat Fabio

Sweet Violet Purple Teal Starburst

Time Travel Teal Starburst

I'm Late, I'm Late Slate Glitter

Aaaannnd, if you wanna see how it all came together, here's a little process video I've whipped up...

And that, my friends, is that.

Thanks so much for stopping by!!  I'll see ya next time :-)

Thankful.

Here's what I came up with...

 

This cute little journal/art journal was inspired by the idea of expressing yourself daily---on a small, 'index-card-sized' palette.  'ICAD' for those who are familiar.  If you're not familiar?  GOOGLE IT.  It's awesome :-)

 

In a nutshell, I plan on documenting a whole month of thanks, one 4x6 inch page at a time!

 

That's '30 Days Of Thanks'.

 

Thirty days to count my blessings.  To focus on the good things in my life.  To celebrate everything that is positive and beautiful. 

 

A gratitude journal in miniature!!

 

 

I started by stacking a bunch of heavy weight cardstock and binding it with some simple jute.

 

 

Next came the color!!  I did some fun stamping with my favorite Lindy's Flat Fabio sprays. 

 

Mango Mania Flat Fabio Spray (Yummy Orange, NO shimmer.)

Queen Of Hearts Red Flat Fabio Spray (Lovely Red, NO shimmer.)

Greased Lightnin' Green Flat Fabio Spray (Fabulous Green, STILL NO shimmer!)

Shabby Turbine Teal Glitter

Time Travel Teal Glitter

Jolly Holly Gang Stamp Set (Technically, a Holiday set.  BUT, the leaves in this set ROCK MY WORLD!!)

 

And you know I had to add some GLITTER!!  And vellum leaves.  How much do I love vellum, lately??!?

 

 

A few more bits and bobs and my cover was finished (UmWowStudio chippies and black thread, anyone??)!  Now, who's ready to get grateful with me??

 

I'm planning to share my pages in my Instagram feed, so if you Instagram, hop on over and join me!!

 

And don't forget to hop on over to the Lindy's Stamp Gang blog and check out the rest of the DT's fabulous creations :-)  And then, GO GETCHA CRAFT ON and link up!

 

You just may win a little somethin'.

 

Good Luck!!

Here's what I came up with...

 

This big 'ol bag of treats and fun tag are heading straight to my daughter's Third Grade class for their Halloween party.  The way I see it, just because you're asked to send prepackaged goodies these days, doesn't mean they can't arrive in style!!  It's ALL about the packaging :-)

 

 

The tag features beautiful Lindy's color and the digital stamp 'Treats' from Saturated Canary... 

 

...and the bag is wrapped up tight with gobs of hand colored seam binding ribbon in some of Lindy's spookiest hues!

 

I just adore coloring in grayscale with pops of color.  Ghoulish, no??

 

And DIG that Lindy's glitter and bits of sparkle!!!

Mango Mania Flat Fabio (Delicious COLOR, No Shimmer!)
