I'm a Special Guest Designer...

for Not2Shabby on Zibbet!!  Yah me!!

Can you believe it - Jamie asked me to be a "Special" Guest Designer with the Twisted kit from The Greeting Farm.  Oh yah, super exciting.  And part of me being a Guest Designer means that you get a Coupon code for 10% off your purchase at Not2Shabby!  Your welcome =)

The Twisted kit is on sale right now for 5% off - $45.60 and with my coupon you get another 10% off that price.  And there are 16 stamps in the set so you are getting them for less than $3 a stamp - what a deal!  Each single image stamp stamps are $8 to $12 when purchased separately but these ones are not available separately.  I know, I'm an enabler =)

So, for my first project as a Guest Designer I have decorated these mini composition books that a dear friend gave me (thank you Irene!).  The little boy represents Jonathan and his love of camouflage, and the little girl represents Madison and her secret wish for dip-dyed hair.  Super cute!

They are so adorable!  I hope you enjoy them.  The paper used is from the DCWV Rock Star collection and the chipboard frames are from Recollections Vintage Collector.  The greetings are from the Twisted kit and white embossed on black card stock.

Here are the Copic colours used for each image.  I hope you head over to Not2Shabby and pick up this kit before they are all gone.

Happy Papercrafting!

Guest Designer, Little Blue Button Stamps - Yah me!!!

Hi Everyone!

I am so happy to be coming to you today with a project for Little Blue Button Stamps.  I was chosen to be a guest designer for the month of June and will be sharing three projects with you.

So, for my first project I started with Sweet Geisha Charlie and I wanted to alter an item.  I chose a paper mache note pad holder that has been in my stash for quite some time.  I started by colouring it with black gesso and then covering it with patterned paper from the Bo Bunny Enchanted paper line.

She turned out so sweet.  I coloured her up with Copic and Spectrum Noir markers and added some glossy purple with a Sakura gel pen.  I used the Tim Holtz Ornate frame for the background and stood it up with a picture frame backing that I pulled off of one of the Micheals $1.50 ceramic frames.
Added some little white doilies from my stash and decorated with roses from Wild Orchid Crafts and cherry blossoms from I am Roses.

Check out my YouTube channel for a closer look and a list of marker colours used.
Stay tuned for more projects before the end of the month - thank you so much for stopping by.

Happy Papercrafting!
