TCP Sneaky Peek Week...Stuck on YOU!

Hello there inky friends!  Today I'm joining some of my fellow Cat Packers as we begin SNEAK PEEK WEEK!  This first day of Sneak Peek week is so fun and I decided to put a little twist on this new set.  A FESTIVE TWIST! 

Today we're sneakin' a peek of the new "Stuck On You" set!  You can purchase the stamp AND die bundle HERE! It's such an adorable prickly set and I decided to put a little Christmas treat twist on it!  Each little giftie envelope is ready to be tucked into the tree...All that's needed is some CASH-OLA!  

To create my giftie envies, I stamped the Kawaii-ish cactus with Copic markers and then doodled some Christmas lights on the tall cacti.  I also added some lights across the top to add to the festive flair. 

After coloring the cactus plants, I fussy cut them and then watercolored some white paper with aqua ink and mounted that onto a piece of pink cardstock.  I wrapped some tinsel ribbon around it to give some sparkle. 

Hop over to the TCP Blog to check out the other sneaks that are being shared today! 

Color By Faith...Easter best!

Hey there inky friends!  Happy Birthday to ME!  No joke!   Hee hee...

I'm joining my fellow Joy Clair design teamies as we celebrate one of our favorite stamp lines:  Color By Faith!  The Color By Faith line is a collection of stamps perfectly suited for stampers who desire to share their faith with others.  It's also a line that features scripture, faith based sentiments and coordinating images to help you spread love, hope and comfort.  If you've arrived here from Monica's blog, you're on the right track.  If not, scroll down to the bottom of my post and you can start hopping right away! 

Not only is the Color By Faith line perfect for Faith journaling, the stamps work beautifully for cardmakers and scrapbookers.  They even work well for your everyday creations or specialty projects.

Today I created a special project for Easter gift giving.  I was inspired to create a cute little dress featuring one of the newest sets in the Bible Journaling Color By Faith set called "Blossom".  I wanted to create a cute little Dress treat Box from The Cutting Cafe.  To create this project, I printed the dress template onto white cardstock using the PDF version of the files (they are available in SVG format as well) and then cut out the template.  I then stamped the little agave cactus plant onto the bottom of the dress (both sides) using two different green inks.

After stamping the cactus plants, I used a Copic marker and an Opaque White Gelly Roll Pen to create polka dots on the top portion of the card.  Next, I added some yellow ribbon.  

Once the dress was stamped, I assembled the box by following the score lines.  I filled it up with chocolate and now it's ready for gift giving!!!

Thanks for hopping over!  I hope you were inspired by my creation and I hope you enjoy the rest of the hop!  Remember, to celebrate the Color by Faith Blog Hop, Joy Clair Stamps is giving away a $25 Gift Card to One lucky winner!

TCP Sneaky Peek: Spit Happens!

Hello there inky friends!  Today I'm joining my fellow DT as we share some "adorableness" in our Day 4 Sneak Peek of the new stamp set/die set called Spit Happens!  This most adorable set includes several cutie-patootie squatty llamas a toque a few cactus', a present, coffee cup and several perfectly punny sentiments. 

 To create this first card, I started out by using some Tombow Markers to create a pretty watercolor background.  I stamped the cactus stamps several times on a separate piece of white cardstock and colored them with the watercolor method using Tombow Markers.  Next, I mounted the  watercolored paper onto a piece of kraft cardstock to make it more sturdy and then diecut  the panel using the small frame from the Framed Up Die Set. 

 I think tore a little piece of kraft cardstock and then stitched the edge before adding to the base of the inked panel.  I wanted it to appear sand-like, so I added a few dots of ink here and there.  Next, I started to assemble the card pieces onto the card and added some red twine before mounting it to the card base. 

Next, I moved on to creating card # 2.  This card features the same stamp set and includes a playful layout and a Peek-a-boo llama.  I colored the toque with Copic markers and stamped the cactus images and hearts with Memento Sand ink.  The sentiments were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black.  I colored the little llama with Copics too. 

To create the funky angled kraft panel, I used the Toppers Cut-Ups die.  I just angled them a bit wonky to add to the playful flair! 

 Stamping that sentiment repeatedly at the bottom gave a bit of grounding to this whimsical panel. 

 So fun to have this playful and angular layout! 

 Peekaboo llama!  HEE HEE!
