Craft:Mason Jar/Feeder Light

I found the cutest mason jar project on a blog a couple weeks ago and became determined to make it. It incorporated my LOVE of mason jars, chick feeders and primitive decorating. Last winter I made a candy dispenser out of the same two items so with a few more supplies, I knew I could make this adorable light. I got the idea from THIS blog.

I have enough supplies to make more. I'm thinking of spray painting the feeder black and trying different decorative twines.

Card:Hello Sunshine

Totally love this cute stamp set I got from Green Grass Stamps. It's called "Oh Happy Day" and it totally makes me smile when I use it...it's soooo cute!

I broke out an older clear stamp set for this one that I had never used before. The coffee beans and "thanks a latte" are from the Coffee Break Set by A Muse Artstamps and "To Go Cup" is from the same company. They're all retired but you can get some of them from my friend Pamela at A Muse Studio.

My New A Muse Goodies

I had an A Muse Studio workshop at my house a couple weeks ago and got some really nice stamping goodies! I spent some time yesterday at my friend Pamela's house and made some cards. I gotta tell you...I'm loving the ink pads and colors! The first two cards are using the 3 colors I got, LIME, OCEAN & WATERMELON!


This card is using stamps from "Happy Everything". I'll be using it ALOT!


This card is using the beer mug from the new "Hey Man" set from A Muse...

Cards:Baby

Posting this to thank yet another awesome friend (Pamela) who lent me an amazing stamp set. This one is called "Wee Tees" by Melanie Muenchinger but sold by Gina K. Designs. What a cute set! I know I haven't used it to it's full potential but I just LOVE the onesie stamp!

The pink one uses A Muse gingham paper, Memorybox card, cuttlebug folder and some ribbon I probably bought at Michael's...

This card uses A Muse gingham paper, neon green paper & ribbon. The card is Memorybox, Martha Stewart border punch and I used a Stampin' Up embossing folder.

Yes, more of the A Muse gingham paper that I LOVE as well as A Muse cloud paper and ribbon. I also used a Basic Grey button and Nesibilities.

Cards:Birthday Girl

Jessy is home sick from school today and sleeping on the couch so I decide to sneak in some crafty time. My friend Karen C. was nice enough to allow me to stamp a bunch images the last time I was at her house. I just LOVE these Pure Innocence stamps!!! I'd buy them all if I could. The images are so soft and sweet and although they seem to show the images colored with Copic Markers (which I love), I like them so much more colored in with Watercolor Pencils. Maybe I'm just better with watercolor pencils? Anywho...here's the card I made today...

Here's a close-up of the colored image...

Ingredients:

Imaged stamped with brown Memento Ink

Staedtler Watercolor Pencils blended with a Stampin' Up blender pen

A Muse, Basic Grey and Bazzil papers

Nestabilities

Fiskars scallop border punch
