Stampdala T-shirt

Hi Everyone!

Patti Campbell here with my second blog post as a member of The 100 Moons Team.  I'm going to share with you how I made this Stampdala t-shirt with ArtFoamies, Stamp Buddys and Jacquard textile paints.

For this project I used 

1 plain white v-neck t-shirt (washed & dried)

ArtFoamies Stamps

Jacquard textile paints 

1 small round brush

2 Stamp Buddys

1 large piece of cardboard to go inside the t-shirt

a pencil

and

a compass

1. First I placed the cardboard inside the t-shirt. This will keep the paint from bleeding through to the back of the shirt.

2. Next I drew circles with the pencil and compass very lightly. This is not necessary I just like to have a guide for my circles.  These light pencil lines will wash out easily.

3. Then I loaded up a Stamp Buddy with my paint in a circular rainbow. I placed a good sized circle of 106 true red in the center, I placed a bit of 101 yellow over the edge of the red to

create orange, then the yellow by itself, then 116 apple green, 111 sky blue, and 110 violet as shown in the picture below.

4.  Using the Candy Love ArtFoamie and the rainbow paint filled stamp buddy,

I stamped the center of my design.

5. At this point I wasn't sure where I was going with my design but knew I wanted to use the Lavender stamp around the largest circle. 

I used my small paint brush and painted the leaves green and the flowers purple directly on the stamp.

6. Using this technique, I stamped the outer circle with the lavender stamp.

7. After stamping the lavender there were some gaps between the images. 

I used my paint brush to hand paint some leaves and flowers in the gaps to create the look I desired.

8. Next I chose two stamps from the Microcosms set, a floral-ish one and the small striped one. Then using the same rainbow inked Stamp Buddy I stamped the floral stamp four times, at the north, south, east an west points.  

9. Again using the rainbow inked Stamp Buddy I used the smaller striped stamp between the floral images.

10. I added the small leaf from the Dandelions set between the Microcosms and the lavender. For the leaves I used a second Stamp Buddy loaded with 116 apple green and 114 turquoise side by side. This created a nice two tone leaf.

11. Wanting to add one more image to my stampdala, I chose the dandelion blossom from the Dandelion set and used the rainbow inked Stamp Buddy again.

I stamped this around the outside.

12.  I allowed the paint to dry and then proudly wore my new t-shirt!!

Thanks for joining me!

Love and Laughter,

Have a Very Meowy Christmas!

 

Hello friends, Kim here today, I would like to share some fun Christmas themed cards I have created using Rubbermoon Stamps and some fun products from Imagine Crafts.

First up is my very "meowy" Christmas card. I love the whimsy with this card and the "Impurrfect" kitty cat stamp I used as a focal point.

 

 

 Behind the kitty I used a scroll frame from Gina's Designs, and painted it a soft ivory color, then stamped the "stardust" in the background behind the cat.  I used some Imagine Crafts gold embossing powder to give a lovely shimmery look to the frame.

 

 

Behind the card I spritzed some of the Imagine Crafts Shimmer Spritz in gold and sparkle tones. Then used the Dots and Circles Stamp with some silver Delicata Ink from Imagine Crafts to create a fun background on the card.

 

 

Finally I added some metal snowflakes to each of the corners of the frame to finish it off

.

Here are some of the fun products I used from Imagine Crafts, I just adore their items and they really made my cards sparkle!

 

 

For this next card I used the 3 Snowman Stamp in the center, and colored them in with some copics to give some Christmas tones to the card.

 

 

For the background I used some of the Gina's Designs cardstock doilies. I laid them on my card and then used some of the  Fire works sprays from Imagine Crafts in Bahama Blue and Paris Dusk. I love the tones it gave, I really wanted to give the image of a wintery background.

 

 

I love the effect the sprays and doilies give, they really look like snowflakes!

 



 

 

After the sprays had dried I then used the Box O'Flakes Stamp and some silver embossing powder on top to add to the background. I really wanted a nice shimmer to the card, I also layered more of the Shimmer Spritz Spray on top as well.

 

I used some of the Art Squares precision cut matboard to layer on top of the background and used some of the Irresistible Pico Embellisher to draw snowflakes and dots on it. I then used more of the Fireworks sprays to complete the background look on the matboard.

 

 

I used some lace from my stash and a few more metal snowflakes and pearls, then popped the snowmen up with some foam tape.

I hope you have enjoyed looking at my whimsical cards today, thanks for taking a peek and have yourself a very "meowy" Christmas!
