Lots of things going on today! I have a winner from my Ellen Hutson Guest post! The winner is commenter #5....
Who just happens to be... Kelly Massman!!
Kelly, I just sent you an e-mail, so be on the lookout for it!
How about a Father's Day project today? I had some time last night to play around with some new Jenni Bowlin stamps I got the other day. It's an adorable set of two award ribbons...I'm sensing a trend around here, aren't you? These sorts of ribbons seem to be popping up everywhere.
Just a few details on how I created the ribbon embellishment. I Stamped the ribbon onto text patterned paper and also onto blue paper. I cut them out and layered them, snipping between the lines on the top ribbon and bending/fluffing to add dimension. I also added some strips of canvas for added texture. Then there's the center..I used a wooden button which I inked with Tea Dye Distress ink, then stamped with Walnut Stain Distresss ink and a woodgrain stamp. I then stamped the "1" onto cream cardstock, punched it with a 1/2" circle punch and adhered it to the inside of the button, then filled it with glossy accents.
Most of the supplies I used here can be found in the Father's Day section over at Ellen Hutson's....WHICH, like I mentioned the other day, just happen to be 20% off when you use the code dadsday. Everything is linked in the supply thumbnails below.
