Extreme Happiness

These great hibiscus are from the new stamp set "Extreme Happiness." I used the second generation rock & roll technique (shown on p. 23 of the Summer 2009 Idea Book) to get the varied color on the petals. The background paper is from the new "Moon Doggie" Level 2 paper packet.

Play Time

This little hula-hooper is from the new stamp set Play Time. The paper and ribbon are from the new Creative Basics / Animal Cookies Collection.

Makin' Waves

This duck, along with the waves and bubbles, is from the new stamp set, "Makin' Waves." I used Liquid Glass on the duck and Stickles on the life preserver. The Stickles made the ink bleed a little, and Jen (Obi Wan of stamping) suggested using Staz-On ink to prevent this.

Popcorn Card

I was away from work for two weeks, so I brought a huge bag of movie theater popcorn in to the office as a thank you to my coworkers for keeping my work done during my absence. I made this card to go with it. I used markers to color the popcorn stamp (different shades of yellow for the popcorn), and a little glitter on the popcorn to make it look oily and salty. I used a little liquid glass in the circle portion of the popcorn box.
