Dark and Stormy Stamping!

To clean or stamp? The struggle is real!

On a dark and stormy day...

...whatever can you do besides clean or.....stamp? So... Maybe if I use stamping as a reward system for myself that it would motivate me to clean....maybe...nah. 

So...I created a dark card on a dark and rainy day. (Creates bad lighting too.uggh)


Out of black paper sprung a vine of green and a bloom of red. My youngest son asked...."where is the dirt? How will this thing grow?" I told him, "This is a magical flower." He just giggled and went on his way.



I found that the bold colors, like red, showed up the best on the black background. In order to make a yellow flower center you must lay down white first. I also colored right on top of the white craft ink. I added a little black ribbon stapled down and some red twine tied in a bow.


So what do you do
 on a dark and stormy day...you grow magical flowers!

Lets see....what else can we do? Maybe announce the winner of the roll of Washi tape!!!!   Thunder roll please..... Jen R....you win! Email me at jeaniehays00@yahoo.com with your mailing address.

A Little Magic Winter


A little Magic Winter

What's better than a unicorn in glistening snow? Yeah, I dont know either!

Embossed watercolor washed Pool Party snowflakes fall in the background. 

Blushing Bride defines the horizon that rests on snowy glittered texture paste. 

Gray watercolored shadows elongate the unicorns face. Alcohol and ink markers brought controlled color to it's mystical mane. Wink of Stella covers the mane and parts of the body. Fine silver glitter sparkles on the spiraled unicorn horn!


An extra tag with the magical sentiment hangs from silver glittery and Lost Lagoon ribbon and is underlined with silver washi! A snowflake floats by a thin silver thread ready to fall.


I hope you enjoyed stepping into a little bit of wintery unicorn magic today!

Leave a comment and you'll be entered into a drawing for a surprise new roll of washi tape from my stash!

Gallop and blog hop along with us today!
