SISC #37: Luscious Lace, the Fabric of our Lives!

It’s Thursday! Which means it’s time for another StampInsanity Challenge!!! This week our challenge to you is to create a project using lace and/or fabric! The possibilities are endless! And, what's really cool is that BOTH Wards are playing along this week! Here is my offering to the challenge…

I had really hoped to find some cream colored lace in my Mom’s HUGE stash…but we couldn’t find any at the time. So I opted to layer 2 types of beautiful trim for this Holiday card.

This is one of the 2 fabulous new Holiday Princess Maddies. I love them both…but here is something so magical about this one. She’s called Renaissance Princess. Totally up my alley!!! I guess it’s the candle and her pretty cape. I am so pleased with the way her hair came out. Doesn’t it look like it’s glowing from the candle? Would you like to see the rest of this pretty new digi set?

I plan on using this candle Maddie throughout the year, for sure!

I used 3 pretty papers, and Walnut Stain Distress Ink on the card. It’s just a sweet, pretty card that I look forward to sending to someone special…if I can part with it! Am I the only one that makes a ton of cards, and then hordes them for myself???

Now it’s time for you to visit the rest of the fantabulous Groovy Gurlz! Have an inspiring day!!!

Christmas in July with Imagine Crafts & Stencil Girl!

Hello! Have you heard? The Imagine AIRs have been hopping with Stencil Girl! If you have been here before, you know I loooove me some stencils, so this collaboration was very exciting for me! The teams are hopping for 3 consecutive Saturdays, and this is week 2. I have the entire list of hop links at the bottom of the post. Be sure you don't miss anyone! I decided to to create an extra large gift tag with my new stencils. Using red cardstock, I taped down the Journal Texture #8 Stencil and inked it up with Golden Glitz Delicata ink . I promise you, this is the BEST gold ink you will ever use! The Journal stamp only has 2 diamonds on it (it's a 4x4" stencil), so after I inked up the first pair, I moved over the stencil, lined it up, and inked again. Next I wanted to do something textural with the Urban Insiders Star . So I took some evergreen cardstock, taped down the star, and slathered on some yummy Iridescent Green Creative Medium . After the medium dried, I ga

Deco Art and Andy Skinner Hop

This is a very exciting week for the Stampendous team! We are hanging out with the ultra cool Deco Art Mixed Media team, each using each other's products to share some incredible creations with you. These companies go hand in hand, so using each other's products is easy. And the results are amazing. We are of course featuring Andy Skinner's stamps, who is the DecoArt International Education Coordinator. And yup, there are prizes! But I want you to go to the Stampendous Blog for all of that info. The link is at the bottom of the post. Now, on to my project. I made a cool wall hanging today. I started off with a piece of MDF and I drilled 2 holes, and covered it with DecoArt's white Gesso. After it dried, I used Andy's Alcohol and Media fluid Acrylics Layering Technique. You can check out his how-to video HERE . Needless to say, it's a great technique, and I loved doing it. Once I finished with the aforementioned technique, I sealed the piece w
