Something Fun on Monday

Hello everyone! I spent some time in the ArtLab today tinkering with papers and ribbon. Lately I seem to gravitate towards stencils and a certain sentiment from Gina K's latest Stamp TV kit.

I know I've said it many times, but I just REALLY appreciate how well all of the Gina K Designs sets work with one another. I love that she thinks about the font styles over time with different releases so that your finished products look so pulled together. She makes our work look so easy!

I painted my stamps with SU waterbased markers rather than ink this time. I'm also loving the marker technique. All the cardstock is Gina K's (in a class all their own) and the patterned papers are Basic Grey - Sugar Rush (do I use anything else??). I did a little stitching, accented with nailheads, tied Twinery baker's twine through a button to create the Prima stacked flower, and tucked the image (from Stenciled Spring) and sentiment under a scrap of ribbon.

Thanks so much for stopping by - I hope this brings a little brightness to your world. Your visit brightens mine!

Ta!
