Muse Monday and Day 4 of 30 Days of Lists

Greetings! It's the first Monday of the month, so that means I get to share the latest set I chose from Bombshell Stamps to be featured as a Muse Monday set. This month, it's all about Love and Luck. This set is fairly new to me. I haven't had it long, and have not used it too much yet. But, I plan on using it a bit more this month! I decided to combine the Muse Monday project with my Day 4 from the 30 Days of Lists.

I started by panting my background, and then I added my text. I stamped after the paint was nice and dry. I think I will go over everything with Mod Podge...after I check to see if my ink will run or not! Here's a close up.

The prompt for today was: "On an average day I..."
*want the 4 of us to be home together
*worry about what to make for dinner
*want to scrapbook, make jewelry, color, etc.
*check Facebook 100 times
*think about my Dad
*give 1000 hugs and kisses to the kids
*put on my makeup
*miss my sisters
*talk to my mom on the phone or in person
*use my Keurig at least once

Please be sure to visit the Bombshell Blog to see what some of the other gals created. There are some great projects today! Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

February Smeared & Smudged Sketch Challenge

The new Smeared & Smudged challenges are up and ready for you to participate in! I got instantly inspired by Kelli’s card sketch for the month, as I have been working with different ideas for my next “Tarot Card.” Haha! That’s actually pretty funny! If you’ve been checking in over the past couple of weeks, you may have seen my Misty Benson Tarot Set 1 ( Smeared Ink ) cards. I’ve used The World and The Fool so far. Today, I bring you Death. Don’t worry…it’s actually a joyful image…one that I intend to use a lot! First, here’s the sketch. I flipped it and changed the ribbon and embellishment a bit. Can I just start off by saying that it is quite nerve wracking to slice your image??? I have done it a few times in the past, but I always get butterflies when I attempt it again. I colored the image and the card itself using nothing but Distress Inks and my Cut-n-Dry Nibs. My skull button at the top has been colored with Alcohol Inks. The colors look a little off to m

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
