Playing with New Stamps

Playing with the newest stamp set from flourishes.  I tested out a few color choices before landing on this grouping of colors.  Peaches surprisingly are harder to color then you think.  Well I guess it really is up to what you want them to look like. Need to color the rest and then start designing…

Made more rings.  Played with some items I already had in my bead collection.  I also found some stuff at Michaels in the vintage looking area of the bead section.  Went outside and played with hanging the rings on a bush and then put some on the red brick. The taking the pictures outside was…

Crafting Music

What do you listen to when you are doing projects? Any songs that help you zone out into creating happiness?  I am a mood listener.  I also listen to almost anything.  I do have a favorite though.  Above is a song from Everly.  I love these ladies.  I personally love Bethany Joy Galeotti’s earlier music before…

The Sabrina Ring!  So I had been searching for months for ring blanks to try out this projects I saw on a mod podge site http://networkedblogs.com/eK3GW I found these ring blanks handmade on etsy . I love them because they look vintage Around 11:30pm the night they arrived I had a bright idea to put a picture…

For this project I used the waterlily set so this would be in the Tami Lyn collection.  I wanted to make a card that looked like a pond.  I happened to find a cut on the cricut that gave me a good card shape.  I stamped about 25 lily pads and colored each one.  I…

This project makes me want to have apple pie!  Lots of stamping, coloring, and playing with ribbon!  Still no name for the collection. 

Recently I was asked what I was doing up until 3am.  My answer…coloring. One of my favorite things to do is color.  I find it so relaxing.  There are many creative things that I love to do, but when I sit down and color I can block out the world.  My new favorite coloring tool is…

New addition to the Ashlee Collection!  Welded two frames to make into a shadow card for the main frame with the image.  Dimensional magic is used on some parts of the image.  Cute little bow up top adds to the sweetness of the card.  I had to use some glue to keep the bow strands…

So i welded the frame image and the card turn out was super.  I decided on a deep green since it seemed to machine with darker red apple.  The last picture is pretty much everything I used to make this card happen.  I typically use the twine to wrap my cards.  I was going to…

My best friends!  Copic sketch markers!  These markers are amazing and I learned for them from one one of my student staff members.  She is an amazing artist so I trusted her opinion.  I then did tons of research on them.  I haven’t seen a bad thing about them. The cricut is my fantastic die…

Apples!  Another fruit I love!  Apples remind me of being a kid of course.  Pretty such I love anything with Apples.  I wonder if this has to do with the season I was born in?  Maybe it was those apple trees in the backyard/around the neighborhood.   Apples are so yummy and they are so…
