Rudolph, Come Home With Me and Help Me With My New DT!

Isn't he just the cutest? I want to take him home with me! Not sure my two labs would appreciate that....

I made this for today's SCS Featured Stamper Challenge 198 - LOVE LOVE Sarah's gallery. I could case all day long! But this is the one I chose. I kept her layout and theme, but changed colors, images and ribbon placement. I glittered up his nose for some sparkle! Click on the picture for a close-up. My image is from a set called Holiday Squares, available at I Brake For Stamps.

I am proud to say that this is my first upload for my new DT gig with I Brake For Stamps! LOVE their stuff! I am honored to be working with such an awesome team! Thank you Della and Chris for your faith in me!

 

I'm Melting . . .

Yes, you may have thought from the title that this would be the Wicked Witch of the West....(my daughter just played that role in her HS musical!).....but it's my poor little snowman who needs a bit more cold.

It's plenty cold for me, and I wear a lot of scarves from fall-spring. I loved both of these:
Blue and White Crocheted Scarf and Purple Vertical Stripe Crochet Scarf.
I love to crochet and used them for my inspiration colors for the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge.

My snowman and snowflake image are from Sparkle N Sprinkle's Gothic Snow Stamp Set. Such a whimsical set! The snowflake is stamped with Encore Metallic Silver ink and then embossed with Ice Rink Embossing Powder. The melting snow is colored with a Blue Frost Copic and then I added Crystal Ice Glitter to the "puddle."

And here is a picture of my beautiful Wicked Witch! She graduates in May and will be leaving the nest for bigger and better stages!

Believe in......Gingerbread Men!

I love the smell of warm gingerbread baking in my oven.  This little stamp set from Rubber Stamp Tapestry makes me want to get in my kitchen and have it smelling like yumminess!
I made this yesterday for the Splitcoast Ways To Use It Challenge: Basically Beautiful Brown . . .

I used Rubber Stamp Tapestry's Old Fashioned Gingerbread Fabric Stamp Set for my wreath and Believe/Dream/Peace Designer Block Prints for my sentiment.

First I sponged in a wreath shape with my ink, and then added each little stamp one by one. I added a row of little pearls underneath the bronze metallic embossed panel. The buttons and candy canes have Diamond Stickles on them. I love this little Gingerbread set! It was made for stamping on fabric.  If you haven't been to Susan's (RST owner) blog to see what she does with quilt blocks, you are missing out.  Her cards are simply stunning! Take a peek today and you might win a RST set!
