Inspired Stamps

Welcome to Inspired Stamps Release week. I am sharing this fun Art Journal set. It has a face that you can make lots of different expressions. My first project is part of my scripture journal. I used words from the new set to frame around the edges of the page. The scripture is Philip 4:13. I used Viva Decor silver pen for the scribble lines. The flower is from Flower Buds that was stamped on watercolor paper that had been painted and spritzed first.

Here is a card using the new set. I love how the words are individual so you can make lots of different sayings. Sorry for the words being off but I have been sick.

Challenge- Mixed Media Art - sparkle

Enjoy

I am trying to use kits and DSP that has been in my stash. The main parts of the card are from a Basic Grey card kit. The bunny is stamped on Lemonade DSP. The egg is a scrap of brown cardstock and smooch added for sparkle. This is for Basic Grey Challenge of girly/mom and There She Goes challenge of Easter theme with Animals. What better than to have a chocolate egg to enjoy for Easter.

Rawr

This card is for Tuesday Morning Sketches. I used My Mind's Eye So Sophie for the DSP. This cute image is called Rawr Tobie from Some Odd Girl. I colored him with pencils and added smooch for sparkle. The ribbon is from Ribbon Carousel's February ribbon kit.

Inspired Stamps

This week for Inspired Stamps we were asked to create something with a character as the focal point. I choose HLO Boy Praying. He was stamped and embossed on water color paper than colored with Prisma pencils. The scripture verse is from the set Strength. There are actual rocks on this. The ribbon is from my stash. Visit the Inspired Stamps blog to see the other amazing projects that the DT made.

Howdy

This cute cowgirl is from My Favorite Things and the charms are dies that go with her. It is for MFT sketch 63. I used Authentique Free Bird DSP paired with River Rock SU. She is stamped on Natural White from Stampin Up. I like how it looks like she has freckles. She is colored with Prisma Pencils.
