Hello World Blog Hop!


Good morning friends!
I am so excited to be a part of the, "Hello World Blog Hop!" Many of you may know Jennifer Ingle from, Just Jingle Blog! Her husband Sean is a teacher in a school where most kids are on a free and reduced lunch program, they don’t have computers at home or at school and the school doesn’t have the funds for a curriculum.  In the spirit of giving his students the best education he can provide, Sean is working to raise funds to purchase computers for his classroom.  You can read more here:  https://www.donorschoose.org/project/chromebooks-for-urban-education/2208813/
Since I am also a school teacher, this tugged at my heartstrings!  So Catherine Pooler got a bunch of us gals together to create projects using BRAND NEW stamps created just for this cause! It is called,"Hello World!" 

These gorgeous butterflies were stamped several times using my Misti.  They were colored with my Zig Water color markers.  I added a bit more depth with colored pencils, and even cut two of the butterflies out and popped them up using foam adhesive.  I masked all of the butterflies and stamped the background. Each circle was colored in with red and given a bit of glossy accents.  I added a few sequins and some twine to finish it off.  
All profits from the sale of this stamp set and the coordinating dies from Saturday October 1 - Friday, October 7 will purchase computers and other school supplies for Sean’s classroom in Boston.
I can’t wait to see how this week unfolds and how many computers we can provide for these kids!!!

We are beside ourselves excited to raise money to purchase computers for these kids...how can you become a contributing member of society these days if you don’t know how to use a computer?

All designers were sent a goodie pack of stamps on Friday.  On October 1, we will be releasing the following products into the store:

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Blog Hop With Lawn Fawn-Day 2

Hello and Welcome to the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®  Lawn Fawn blog hop!  Make sure you check both blogs for tons of inspiration and prizes this week!  

I created this interactive shaker card using Lawn Fawn's, So Smooth stamp set.  It is soooooo cute!! I stamped each image on water color paper and colored them in using Copic markers.  I masked off the images and sponged ink around it using Tim Holtz inks.  I splattered it with a bit of water. 
I used Scrapbook Adhesives Crafty Foam tape and their double sided tape to create the shaker portion of the card.  First, I adhered the acetate to the tri-cut panel using the double sided tape.  Then placed Crafty Foam Tape over that to give the shaker a bit of depth.  It really allows the sequins to have a bit of room to shake about! 
I placed the shaker card on layers of card stock and this cute plaid paper by Lawn Fawn called, Perfectly Plaid Petite paper.  For my final touch I tied pink Girlie Grunge twine vertically.
