Mixed Media Tags with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L~

Hi guys!!
It is my turn on the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Blog today.
I have some mixed media tags to share using the Creative Photo
Corners Black to create flowers from.  Very fun and so pretty!!!

I have a full tutorial on the flowers and the tags over on the
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Blog.  The flowers are really easy!!
You will need a pack of the corners and the great thing is
they come in different color so that means different color flowers!!!

That is a win win for sure!!

Darkroom Door September 1st new release~

Hi guys!!
I thought this day was never gonna come :):)
But IT is here.
September 1st Darkroom Door stamp and
stencil release.  Take a look~

Love all of these and they will pair nicely with sets already in the
line.  Really love the Christmas Bush set !!!

The Stars and old TV really speak to me.  I have all kinds of
ideas in my head!!!!

 Aren't these COOL?  I really think they are!!!

These are just so cute and make it so easy and fast to create a
4" x 4" card.  They fit perfectly.  These also pair well with many
stamps in the DD Store.

Love these!! The rainbow is God's Promise, to us, not to 

flood our land. 
Sun, Moon, Clouds/rain and Rainbow ~ well done!!

Land and Sea with Blue Knight Rubber Stamps~

Hi guys!!
I have a few projects to share using Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.
These projects are created with one of my favorite stamps by

BKRS!! It is called Land and Sea. 

I love anything with shells on it :):)

I love everything about this stamp!! I used Distress Oxide inks to
 create the background for the card.  Then stamped the image with
Archival/Jet Black.  Some extra images were cut out and added

for dimension.  I used 3D Foam Squares Black small size by
Scrapbook Adhesive by 3L.

Here is an Art Journal page created with Distress Oxide inks and stencils,

to create a "sea worthy" background for the shells!  The stencils are by
Darkroom Door.
