Stamp-a-ma-jig Video Tutorial

Hey, everyone! Here's video tutorial I made for the stamp-a-ma-jig. Although Stampin UP's clear mount stamps have lessened the need for using the stamp-a-ma-jig, there are still situations where you'll want/need the stamp-a-ma-jig. I've found there are too many stampers out there who are intimidated by it or don't understand how to use it. Hopefully, this video will help you to feel more comfortable using this invaluable tool! Enjoy!

New Video Tutorial--mini notebook

Hi, everyone!

Here is the video tutorial for the mini notebook. I had a couple of flaws in filming and I went over the 10 minute time limit. So, you miss the last step where you adhere the notebook into the base with red sticky strip. I'll probably re do this video sometime in the future. But for now, here you go!

Video Tutorial for Altered Dentyne Gum

Here is the video for yesterday's project. I have to apologize for chewing gum through the video. I'm trying to lose a few pounds and chewing gum is helping me not snack throughout the day. I didn't notice for myself how noisy I was. I hope you can enjoy the video inspite of it. I'll make sure I'm not chewing gum in the future when I tape these.

Altered Dentyne Gum

I altered this Dentyne Gum with Stampin Up Designer paper. I love making these. They are simple and fun. People have really enjoyed them and they hold up well. I hope you give it a try. A video will follow soon.

Peace Within

Any stamp set that allows me to color, I just love. But I REALLY REALLY love this set. Not only does it have a cat in it, it has some great sayings. And it's got another fabulous all purpose image with flowers and a bird for watercoloring. LOVE IT!

Anyway, for this card, I chose a Rich Razzleberry card base. I used the Razzleberry Lemonaid designer paper. I stamped the image on watercolor paper and then used a blender pen and my in color ink pads (along with old olive (leaves) and several of the browns (for the chair)). The mat for the image is Crushed Curry. For the pillow the cat is lying on, I stamped the pillow on some Rich Razzleberry DSP, cut it out, and glued it on the image.

I like how it turned out. If you like it too, check out my etsy store :)
