Gooseberry & Blog Candy!

I think I've mentioned in the past that Gooseberry Patch makes stamps now? They are food inspired, and super cute! (And really......let's be honest, holidays without food, just wouldn't be the same! ) I stamped these little goodies with Momento ink and colored them with Copics. I added some liquid applique for the "icing" and sprinkled glitter while it was still warm. : ) I added rhinestones, a sheer ribbon, and my scalloped SU! punch.

My 5th graders are putting on their Christmas music show tonight......and of course we are supposed to get snow. Fortunately, I don't live too far from where I work! : )

Hope all is well with you!

More Gooseberry.....

Happy Wednesday to ya'll! Here is the other card I created using those cute Gooseberry stamps. I stamped them on Papertrey white paper and colored these yummy cupcakes with my Copics. I cut them out, used Crystal Effects on the icing and some glitter. The sentiment is a Melissa Frances rub on.

I finished it off with a lil' bow, button, and stick pins......

My girl started cheerleading yesterday. She was so excited to see all of her friends and was cheering her little heart out! She also "made" the choir at school. She has practice on Thursdays and she has been singing Christmas songs all week. I can't wait to see her perform at Christmas! : ) Kyle joined chess club and drama. He seems to be making a few friends and even went down to the park yesterday on his roller blades. He called me to tell me he was staying for awhile to watch some boys play football. He is trying......and I couldn't be more pleased.

Walking for diabetes today at school.......wearing red....and some good walking shoes! : )

Have a great day!!!

Do You Like.......

Gooseberry Patch? Their cookbooks? Craft Books? Or ordered any of their cute lil' knickknacks and such? I have......many times.
So I couldn't have been more thrilled to see that Gooseberry has come out with their own line of stamps! I saw them at the store I was at for the 12 hour crop this past Saturday, and HAD to have them! Let me just say....not only are they adorable images, but they stamp beautifully!

I've made several cards with this set.....and this is the first one. I stamped the cake topper and platter on vellum with Staz On. I cut both pieces out. The cake was stamped on Papertrey Ink white cardstock and colored with Copics. It was also cut out. I used vellum adhesive to adhere the platter to the cardstock and the cake topper to the cake. I used a square pop dot to the back of the cake to give it some dimension. The paper, tag, and rub on are by Melissa Frances. The border was done with a Martha Stewart border punch. I added some stitching and a pretty glass button.

I have another card to share with you using this set, tomorrow! If you are interested in their stamp sets, go HERE! Am I an enabler or what??? : )

Have a great one!!!
