Artful Inkables Blog Hop



Hi everyone!!! Today is kind of a down day because this will be my last blog hop with Artful Inkables. I have had the greatest time getting to work and to know these wonderful DT ladies. Their artwork is exceptional and I feel so honored that Kristin gave me a chance to be on her DT. All of these ladies, including Kristin were a blast to work with and each and every one were extremely helpful in every way. I hope that we have been an inspiration to all of you and I look forward to the new DT that will be coming in soon.

I just had to post another "Into the Moonlight" project. I put this one together with coasters that I bought from Michael's at $1.00. Ya gotta love that. I put black text paper on the coasters and used my Petite Circle Nestabilities to add the images, which I did with Versamark and Black Embossing Powder. I started to color them, but decided that I really liked it just the way it is. The checkered ribbon came from WalMart. Just a fun project!!

The second photo is from "Plant Prints" another one of Artful Inkables great images. On this one, I used some older SU DP. I used my Labels 4 Nestabilities and stamped the image with Versamark and then heat embossed the Gold Embossing Powder. I used a MS punch at the bottom, some jewelry spacers I found at Michael's and some gold glitter dots from Hobby Lobby. The flower at the top also came from Michaels and I added a rhinestone to the middle. The ribbon is also from SU.
If you came from Cathy's then you are on the right track...now you need to hop over to Kerri's to see her creations. Please feel free to click on the pictures to get a better look at the details. It was 5:00 a.m. when I took the pictures and therefore, kinda dark.
Once again, thank you all for stopping by and checking out my fun stuff. As for Kristin and Artful Inkables...I will be posting many more of her images...I have almost all of them. I think she is by far one of the best artists in the business and a "gem" to work with !!
