New Spring Releases

We have 20 new rubber cling stamps specially designed for Spring! We listened to your requests and released more animals, like the Moose, Alpaca, and a beautiful American Buffalo. Also more flowers, a perfect lotus design, vintage office typewriter and camera, and a four ice cream cone set are some of the others that we are so excited to be offering as deep etch, red rubber cling stamps.

Another beauty is Alice with Deer Rubber stamp. Sized at about 2 inches x 2 inches, it is perfect for an A2 card. "Cogs & Gears Rubber Cling Stamp" is perfectly detailed and made for repeating on a page. Another cute stamp is "Pizza Day Rubber Stamp" or better put.... "Pizza Day should be everyday." LOL

Another awesomely detailed, original design is "Dragonfly Quatrefoil." The stamp features an intricate dragonfly with his perfect wings sitting on a quatrefoil pattern surrounded by flowers and foliage. The quatrefoil pattern has much meaning in ancient art since represents a four leaf pattern (like a four-leafed clover) and so it conveys good luck and will look beautiful on any card.

Safari is a gorgeous new original design. The stamp measures 4" wide x 3" tall and features an grouping of wildlife, like the One-horned Rhino, Giraffes and Zebras in peaceful co-existance. Ice Cream Border is another larger sized stamp and measures 4 inches wide and is repeatable.

Shipping starts April 6, 2020. Here is the first link to our listing in which you can purchase all 20 stamps as a bundle. (Individual listings will be added this week.) Premium Members enjoy 10% off everyday!

Journaling Techniques to Create a Card

In this project, I combined some favorite journaling techniques to create a handmade card. For those of you that do not create junk journals, that's ok because the processes, like watercolor paint splashes, rolling edges of the paper are used below make a very pretty card with many layers. I also include below a couple of tips on keeping your tools sharp and options for using different focal points. We use a center layout where everything is built around the middle line of the card. Embellish using the top left and bottom right with a background pattern of script in black ink gives the green center a nice contrast which is often seen in journaling. (The red flowers are watercolor designs that were inkjet printed.) You can use stickers of flowers just the same. The Venus de Milo Rubber Stamp is now available. It measures about 1.25" wide x 3.25" tall. The oval frame is from our Create a Cameo Rubber Stamp Collection . You will notice, I used the top part of the Ve

Non-Halloween Stamps to Create Scary

The dramatic effect of white embossing onto black paper doesn't just have to be done at Halloween. Here we used some unconventional stamps to create a scary tag with a base of black. While these stamps normally wouldn't be in the Halloween category, they end up somehow being perfect to create a scary tag. The best way to get a bright white look is by embossing with white powder. Embossing always comes out looking extraordinary and worth the extra effort. Above is our Victorian Man Profile Rubber Stamp embossed onto black chipboard. He'll make a great embellishment for a Halloween. (measures about 2 inch x 2 inch). A tree branch from our Season of Joy Collection is one of my favorite stamps. It expresses the beauty of nature in a simple way. Above, the branch stamp was embossed in Copper Powder onto black card stock. Our Grunge Ticket Rubber Stamp is seen above, embossed in white onto black card stock. The stamp measures about 3 inches tall x 1.5 inches wide. I love

IPhone Cover Decor

Since Xyron has a fabulous way of making anything into a sticker, I decided to create décor for the back of my cell phone case. Taking beautiful, damask patterned glitter paper from DCWV, 6x6 pad, 'The Glitter Basics" I cut out my iPhone 6s cover pattern using a template I created in plain white cardstock of my case. To cut out the circle in the middle, I used an X-Acto knife. The Scooter Rubber Stamp was embossed on red paper and cut out with scissors. I smudged 'Claret' color StazOn ink around the edges. After placing the scooter through the Xyron Creative Station, I placed it onto the iPhone pattern and ran both through together. The Creative Station can take such thick items. You will see below that I ran embellishments made from shrink plastic and it had no problem with them. One of the magical features of the Xyron's sticker makers is that the top of your project comes out unscathed. You just peel the plas
