Hunsett Mill Norfolk Lantern




Hello Everyone

You have seen a sneak peek at the wonderful stamps from
Art-Cure.
These beautiful stamp sets are available  now at

I wanted to do something a little different today.
I stamped the image on frosted vellum
 and made a lantern to set on my table.
When you place the flickering candles inside,
it's very pretty and can be left out all year long.
A little tip, if you want the candle to be a different color.  Dab  the ink color of your choice to the top part of the candle. I used yellow on one and left one bright white.

The Hunsett Mill Norfolk stamp was one of my favorites because I love windmills.

Crafter's Companion has all kinds of beautiful stamps to
pick from. Pop over and take a look.

This is the lantern I made.

 And have a scrappy day.

Marci with a Rose




Hi everyone

This week I found some wonderful stamps.
They are by La La Land Crafts.
And I just love them.
This one is called Marci with a Rose.
I used a combination of copic  and Spectrum-Noir
markers.
I have been  watching a few videos on
how to color and blend.
I had so much fun. Markers everywhere!
Tell me what you think, isn't she to cute?
If anyone has a site that I can go to with
a video to learn more about coloring
and blending, please let me know.
The little heart pin in the corner
of the card is a staple.
If you would like to know more
about these cute little embellishments
go to:
Purple Cows Pin It Stapler and Decorative Pins Kit
They have all kinds of staples.
Hearts, butterflies, leaves etc.
Pop over and take a look.
Have fun!!
