Tutorial Tuesday

Hey guys, Katie here! Happy Tuesday! It's tutorial Tuesday here at PWP so I wanted to show you how I stitched my stamp design on this card. I used my favorite Play with your Coffee stamp set that I use so often.

1. Stamp your design onto your piece of paper, I used the Play with your Coffee stamp set. I used a tag that I added watercolor to. I also colored in my design with watercolor pencils.

2. Use a small awl or embroidery needle and punch equally spaced holes along the stamped lines. I also used an embroidery mat that helps your holes come out clean (by Amy Tangerine).

3. Use a needle and embroidery thread to stitch through your holes. If you're new to hand stitching, here's a great resource for learning the basic stitches.

When I was creating my card, I chose a fun piece of patterned paper and then stamped the flower from the Sacred Geometry stamp set onto the background. After that, I just added my stitched tag and some bling!

Hey ya'll - art journal page

Hello, hello PWP fans, Norma here with you today!  What's been up for me lately is the Southern Sayings Stamp set.  I just got this set and I've already used four of the six sentiments.   Today I'm using "hey ya'll" from the set.  I'm also using the Triangle Border and the Happy Day stamp sets.  

I started with a blue and green background and added the backing of used joint tape.  (nothing goes to waste around here)  Next I added tiny flowers with molding paste and a Finnabair Prima stencil.  Then I cut down the backing from the stencil packaging and added a triangle border.  

This cutie is from the Vintage Cuties clip art sheet.  I'm using the back of a picture frame to hold the image in place.

I found this beautiful bling frame in my stash.  It adds the perfect touch to my focal image.

To compete my design, I added flowers from my stash and Pink Paislee Cottage Farms Paper Goods from the May Nestings Components kit.  My sentiment "hey ya'll" is from the Southern Sayings stamp set.

I strayed all of the flowers with Lindy's Spray ink for a little shimmer.

Finally, I added "oh happy day" to the top and a die cut pencil just for fun.

Be sure to join us on Friday for our design team blog hop!

Mi Amor - Scrapbook Saturday

Hello PWP Fans!  Norma here to bring you a Day of the Dead spin on Scrapbook Saturday!!

Okay so like I mentioned yesterday, today I'm featuring the NEW Mini Day of the Dead Nesting Components kit.  Here is a quick look at the whole kit:



This is a really fun kit and you get to choose whatever Day of the Dead stamp set you'd like.  Before I show you my layout, I wanna share a little background info with you.  About a year and half ago I stumbled into Paper Wings Productions stamps at a local stamping store and what immediately caught my eye was their DOD stamps.  Up until this point, I had never seen any and actually never even had an interest in the holiday.  As soon as I saw them, my eyes lit up and I was hooked!  It's such a beautiful part of my culture that I was unfamiliar with.  So Carrie, thank you so much for making these wonderful stamps and introducing me to this beautiful custom.

So come on, you saw this coming, right, lol!  Of course I had to dress up in the DOD style for Halloween, lol.  My husband is such a good sport, he always lets me dress him up too.  This is probably one of my all time favorite Halloween pics :D  When I saw the new mini DOD kit, I knew I had to scrapbook this pic with it.

I used a plain sheet of black cardstock for my background and stamped it with one of the script stamps.  I used white Stazon, after that I splattered white paint over my page.

I used one of the Papel Piqado (cut paper) panels for my background layers.  Then I added one of the 7 Gypsies journaling pages.  I stamped and embossed the shrine frame included in the Muertos Mujer stamp set.  I used it to frame the pic of me and my honey.

I stamped the sacred heart onto aluminum foil then fussy cut it and added "para siempre" (forever).  The heart, birds and "Amor" banner I used are all from the Milagros stamp set and "para siempre" is from the Muertos Mujer set.

I worked in gold sheer ribbon, black florals, a marigold, black bling, a K&Company die cut and Mexican bingo pieces from the kit.

I hope I've inspired you to have some Dia De Los Muertos fun!!  To purchase this NEW kit, visit the online store HERE.  Thank you so much for joining me today, I hope you've enjoyed my post ;D

Have a Beautiful Day!!
