This second sample for today is just one of several awesome images illustrated by Trudy from We Go Together, a stamp set of 10 for only $9.99. This set is a definate must have. Let me point out something very important about this image... I added the word "Soy" at the top of the milk carton. I did this for one simple reason, I am allergic to dairy, so the obvious choice for me is Soy Milk. I used a regular pen and wrote it in on top of my stamped image. The actual image does NOT have the word SOY on it. I just thought it would be fun coming from me. ;o)

October Sneak Peeks Day Two !!

Hello and welcome to Clear Dollar Stamps October Sneak Peeks Day Two! Today I am showcasing the adorable Filled with Cheer, a set of 14 for only $12.99. This set is really fun and has so many possibilities. For this first example, I masked the three stockings then paper pieced them with fun Christmas dp.

I watercolored the main image using Clear Dollar Stamps Clearly Coordinating Hybrid Inks, Strawberry Jam and Spruce Needle.

September Sneak Peeks Day One!

Here we are again! Clear Dollar Stamps Sneak Peeks time! The very best time of the month! Today I have two cards to share from this elegant new release stamp set, A Season of Wonder.

The very moment I saw this stamp set, I envisioned paper piecing her head-piece with this exact paper and pairing it with the moroccan screen embossing folder. Sometimes, ideas dont really come to fruition, but, today, I am thrilled with the results.
