More Tealights

As I bought 50 of the tealights I have been going to town! My biggest problem is that I don't have many solid stamps. I tend to buy outline stamps that I can color. I did find this solid flower stamp from Stampin Up in my stash and as I don't have many colored ink pads I used markers to color on the stamp. Very time consuming when you are using different colors!




While mulling over the fact that I don't have solid stamps I came up with another idea. Use printed tissue paper. I usually buy pretty tissue paper at Christmas time. When I went into my Christmas wrapping box I didn't have one single sheet! I know it will work so the next time I am at the Dollar Tree that is what I will be looking for!

Don't throw away the bits!

This is the third card in the series using Spellbinder dies.


First I stamped the image which is an old  $1 stamp from Michaels and then cut it out and embossed it with a Fancy Tags die. For the frame I used 2 sizes of Labels 14 and glued the tag to the frame. I used the bits from the negative spaces in the tag to decorate the frame. The DP was cut with the largest size label I used for the frame and adhered to the center of the embossed panel. The frame/tag combo was then attached with dimensional tape.

Just Because......


 The image I used on this card is a digi, Faith, from Sugar Nellie. I colored her with pencils and them cut her out with Spellbinders Shapeabilities Contemporary Hearts die. The sentiment is a $1 stamp with Spellbinders Fancy Tags.
