Perfume Bottles (Paper Project) to Decorate

Perfume bottle design is an art form. If you think of some of the big names out there, the creativity involved in designing the bottles is unreal. We have created a free printable download of four bottle shapes and labels for you to decorate with rubber stamps and cutout. It's just a fun paper project that will have you thinking, 'what would my perfume line be called?'

Above is one of the bottles cut out and our Blooming Sakura Rubber Stamp is stamped in pink ink, trimmed out and placed in the corner. This project is great to use your pink hued markers. Gold embossing would also look excellent on these bottles.

The free download, printable 8.5 x 11 inch page also includes some circle, octagon and rectangle shaped labels.

So many of our stamps will work well with this project. Here is a link to see all of our floral stamps: Deep Red Stamps Flowers search

Seen above are two frame stamps, one if from Potion Labels Rubber Stamp Set and the circle one is from Sewing Handmade By Rubber Stamp Set.

Tip: Perfumes usually are either pinkish, peach or blue (that I can think of). Maybe you know of a different color for your bottle or just be creative and make it any color you heart desires. Hmmm....Heart Desires...sounds like a good name for.....:-)

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

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

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
