Ok, first up tonight is the new stamp set by Rupa Shevde called Beach Bum. This is what I did with it:
I made a little beach scene and stuck the surfboards in the sand, this was so much fun to make too! Hubby said it looked like a postcard...guess thats a good thing? LOL!
Up next is the new stamp set called Botanicals by Gina herself. This will also be the Card Kit Stamp set...although I did not make a card with mine...here is what I did:
I took one of those cheap $1 wood frames from Michaels, painted it white, then sanded it to age it. The brown paper that I stamped on? know what that is? It's what comes in our boxes that we get from Gina K sometimes! I stamped on it, then wadded it all up, smoothed it out and used some distress ink on it! I love how it turned out too. I was going to make another one to match it, cause I think it will look better hanging on the wall with a matching one, but couldnt find my other frame darn it! Ok, enough babbling from me!
