More Creations for Repeat Impressions

This is a home decor piece I made using Repeat Impressions stamps. The verse reads "Let Heaven and Nature Sing".





I was kind of stumped by how to make this lamp post the focal point of the card. It lacked dimension. Adding the ribbon for a bow gave it the oomph I was looking for.




Santa praying over the Christ child is one of my favorite images. I was so excited to find that Repeat Impressions has a stamp with this image!!




Gotta love those snow angels!!




I love the purple and turquoise color combos for this card!



This one took the most time (and the most glitter) of all the cards I made for the Repeat Impressions Design Team Challenges. I think the layers of vellum and glitter and the pastel colors make this a sweet take on the Christmas season. The verse reads "It is Christmas in the heart that puts Christmas in the air".

I know it's a little early, but I wish you all "Happy Holidays!" (works for everything from Halloween till New Year's!)

Using Watercolor Crayons on Stamps

I tried a technique I read about in Vamp Stamp News: using watercolor crayons from Stampin' Up! directly on the stamp, then misting the colored stamp with water and stamping the image. It took a few attempts to get the correct amount of mist on the colored stamp to get a good strong image, but I think I know what I am doing now! I think this is going to be one of my favorite techniques.

I used this technique to make this card for the fall Repeat Impressions Design Team Challenge:
