Fa La La


Yesterday's Limited Supplies Challenge on SCS was to make a white-based card. A couple of weeks ago, I picked up a bunch of those $1 Studio G clear stamp sets they had at Joann's. Each set is cuter than the next! I've been playing with the different sets. I LOVE how they're easy to transport. . .you can take a stamp set, a Stampin' Spot and some cardstock all in a small ziplock bag! :) That's nice when you want to get out of the house for the day, but still want to stamp! Sometimes I'll take my little ziplock bag to my parents' when I go visiting. Anyway, I just loved these little ornaments. The sentiment was actually from another Studio G clear set that I got, but I really liked the font and the size of it. I thought it would work well with the ornaments. I think this card took all of 15 minutes to create. It probably wouldn't even take that long to re-create since some of the time was used deciding on stamps, colors and embellishment.
I've gotta get to some wrapping and gift making today. My family (mom/dad/brothers/sisters) are having our Christmas tonight because nobody has to work and we could ALL get together at the same time. I wanted to make a few things before then and I'm hoping that will happen! Hopefully I'll be able to show you those things later! Thanks for stopping by! SUPPLIES USED: Stamps- Studio G clear stamp set; Paper- Whisper White, Wild Wasabi; Ink- Versafine Onyx Black, Purely Pomegranate, Wild Wasabi; Accessories- double stitched ribbon, Stardust Stickles, paper piercer.

What have you found is the best ink to use with these. I get frustrated with the SU dye ink pooling on the Studio G stamps. Have you found anything better?

Thanks!

BTW, really cute card, and a great idea about making a small kit to make it easier to stamp on the go.
