Technique Tuesday #30 - Patterned Paper Panache!

Pink and black are some of my favorite colors!

Something new from Fiskars

Was in my local Joann fabric and craft store (shh...don't tell my husband)
and of course the manager just had to tell me about a new crafting tool from Fiskars it a Auto Inking Continuous Stamp Wheel.  I found the stamps are reasonable but the ink is about 6 dollars however, if you get it when Joann is running a sale or have a coupon then the price is not bad at all ! I have also add a link to Fiskars for more information and a video on how to use it that is really good. Happy Crafting Everyone!
Not perfect but  I  had a lot of  fun playing with this Continuous stamp wheel and it can be a little messy but what ink stamp isn't ....smile.....I  just wanted to see how it works........I do like how it look on cardstock and the fact that I can stamp a whole page  if I wanted to!

Chinese Chandelier

I was so excited that I was able to download cut files on my Gypsy I decide to create one myself...here is what I came up with: This is an idea that I found in a book Paper Cut It by Marion Elliot...She has some really great paper crafts that can be adapted so that you can use your Gypsy and Cricut ...I used Gypsy Wanderings and Home Accent for the design and welded all of them together. Then I cut three  out of different colors a darker pink, light pink and bright orange and then pasted them together ..I might add I did this after reading about make lace cardstock using the welding feature on Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog! I plan on making more of these to use at the next party I have!

Here is the link that is for the Gypsy Cut File.   I hope that you enjoy it!
