The Gang's All Meer

Hi friends,

Happy New Year! I hope you had a wonderful holiday season. Now that the tree is down and the last cookie has moved from the freezer to my hips, it's time to get back in the craft room!

It's that other most wonderful time of the year - Sale-A-Bration! With every $50 purchase, you get to choose a free item from a sweet selection of exclusive new products. My favorite freebie is a cute little stamp set called "The Gang's All Meer".

This is a simple line-art stamp set but these little guys have so much character-they remind me of Timon from the Lion King!

I actually find myself humming Hakuna Matata whenever I use this stamp set, lol!

I used Stampin' Blends in Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green & Flirty Flamingo for the coloring.

This card uses the masking technique. First I stamped the lizard, single meerkat & cactus. Then I stamped them again on a sticky note & cut the images with paper snips. I used the sticky note images to cover my stamped images on the card, then stamped the group of meerkats on top of the sticky notes.

I love this stamp set for cards from a group. One of the sentiments with it is "from all of us" - perfect! And best of all, it's free with your qualifying purchase!

2020 Desk Calendar using Good Morning Magnolia

Hi friends, welcome to my blog! As we get ready to say goodbye to December and welcome a new year, I thought this would be a timely project to share.

The calendar base is 4-1/4" x 11", scored at 5-1/2". The inside part that keeps the calendar upright is 4" x 5", scored on the long side at 1/2", 2-1/2" & 4-1/2". The 2-1/2" scoreline is a mountain fold; the other 2 are valley folds. A piece of Tear & Tape adhesive on the 1/2" portions holds everything in place. The designer paper is 4" x 5-1/4".

The large magnolia is stamped on Thick Whisper White cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Stampin' Blends in Light & Dark Petal Pink & Mossy Meadow. The center was colored with Dark Daffodil Delight. I brushed the entire flower with Clear Wink of Stella and added 3 Champagne Rhinestones (available January 3!) The flower is adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals, except for the leaf under the calendar, where I added a drop of liquid glue.

The calendar is from Taylored Expressions (www.tayloredexpressions.com).

This one was created by Karisa Stojkovich with the Beautiful Baubles Bundle. She accented one of the ornaments with Mercury Glass Designer Acetate. Lovely!
