Flowers make me happy!  I love looking out back and seeing the roses in bloom.  God's Beauty at it's finest. 

Happy Stamping & Knitting!

Stamped bags and Bottle Caps!

 Went out to celebrate a friend's birthday yesterday.  I decided we needed party favors!  So I stamped on little canvas bags.  I used a stamp from the Mixed Bouquet set and black Stazon ink.  The bottle caps are non Stampin' Up!.  I was into bottle caps before we started selling them and bought a gazillion at a local brewery supply place.  I made the initials in My Digital Studio, and then embossed them with clear embossing powder.  I tried one with Crystal Effects as the top layer but knew it would take too long to dry.  Thankfully I had some of those clear plastic things used in scrapbooking in my stash and used them.  I used a split key chain ring to attach the bottle cap and added it to the draw string.  I think they were a hit!
