Let the paper talk.
It’s Tutorial Thursday! Today is the day that I let the backgrounds speak for themselves. Sometimes I look at a piece of Designer Series Paper and say that is too busy. Instead look at how you can cut pieces out to make accents. It might be too busy as a whole but in pieces itContinue reading “Let the paper talk.”
Take your pick is a great pick up.
It’s Wacky Wednesday where a product is used in a way it is not intended! While the Take Your Pick Tool is intended for picking up things like embellishments and little bits I am not sure it is intended for pulling things out of nooks and crannies. If you have a punched out piece thatContinue reading “Take your pick is a great pick up.”
Technique Tuesday!

Self care so you can give back.
It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to focus on giving back or paying it forward. I ran across the quote today about filling my cup first so I have some to pour out to others. It is very easy during the holidays to get drained by what I am supposed to do or peopleContinue reading “Self care so you can give back.”

Stamping on tile.
It’s Technique Tuesday! Don’t forget that our ink works on tile, glass, fabric, and more. In this case Early Espresso was used to stamp the deer on a tumbled travertine tile that was not glazed. After it was clear-coated it was allowed to dry for about an hour. Happy Crafting! With inky fingers, Joni 🙂
