Tag! 2Sketches4You is IT!

Today, 2Sketches4You is sponsored by Starving Artistamps! To make it more fun to participate (and a bit easier) it is a tag for the sketch!

I used:

• Stamps: DoodleFactory's Santa's Sweet Shoppe from Starving Artistamps;
• Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black; Copic and Prismacolor markers;
• Paper: DP-DCWV; Prism Carstock; Shipping Tag;
• Other Items: Ribbon; Foam Tape; Liquid Pearls (gold); Stickles; Judikins Diamond Glaze; Spellbinders die;

I sure hope you can carve out the time to play along--and perhap

s someone will have a really cool tag under their tree this year!

ALSO:

Simple and Snowy

Sharon Johnson's Stamp Simply Challenge for this week (#118) is to make a CAS card (clean and simple) using snow!

How could I NOT use the stamp set "Snowflakes and Stardust" from Rubbernecker!?! It is so elegant and easy to use!

The swirled snowflakes are stamped with Adirondack Shell Pink and then dusted with Perfect Pearls (pearl). The individual snowflakes were inked with the Shell Pink as well then stamped off one time.

• Stamps: Snowflakes and Stardust stamp set from Rubbernecker Stamp Company
• Paper: Prism Cardstock
• Ink: StazOn Jet Black; Tim Holtz Distress ink-Faded Marigold and Worn Lipstick; Adirondack Shell Pink;
• Accessories: Perfect Pearls (pearl); ribbon, Foam Tape

I hope you are enjoying your weekend! Thanks for taking the time to stop by!

Christmas tags

On the 27th, my family will be up at my in-laws for “Christmas Morning”!  Yes, 2 days late, but we will all be to gether for a few days (all 18 of us).
I often like to do something special in the packaging of the gifts, this year my nieces and nephews will have special tags on their gifts…using the DoodleFactory Santa’s Sweet Shoppe stamp set.

The top two are for my nieces and the bottom two are for my nephews.  Most of them are getting arts and craft supplies—as I have been dubbed “Artsy Auntie”!  LOL!
My eleven year old daughter (who has been bitten BIG TIME by the gift giving bug) will write on the backs and wrap the gifts for me.
Now this Santa has to get back to her workshop!
Thanks for stopping by!!!

MUSH!

I was playing around with my kid’s favorite stamp out of the DoodleFactory Arctic stamp set…the huskie!

Isn’t he a cutie!!

The patterned paper really had orange centers to the star-like shape—but a little Liquid Appliqué took care of that!  I guess I got a little carried away with the LA, but the texture is so fun!!

Materials:

• Stamps: DoodleFactory Arctic from Starving Artistamps;
• Paper: My Mind’s Eye and Prism;
• Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black;
• Other items: Liquid Appliqué; Dies from Spellbinders and Sizzix; Copic markers; CuttleBug Embossing Folder;

I hope your holiday preparations are going well!  I had better get back to my own!

Thanks for stopping by!!!
