DIY Christmas Ornaments With Stamp and Dies

Hello everyone… Christmas is coming! Ornaments can be a great gifts. Also, my family always get new ornaments every year.

Today, I made these Christmas ornaments using Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps:

  • Adorn Him Stamp Set
  • Adorn Him Die Set
  • Peace & Joy Word Dies
  • Starry Night Stencil

On both wood slice backgrounds, I painted them with Black chalk paint. I set them aside to dry.

For the first ornament, I used the stencil, Metallic Gelatos, and white paint to create the starry night background.

I used Altenew Artist Markers to color the baby Jesus image after I stamped it with Memento Ink. And then I cut it with the matching die.

After the background dried, I added the Baby Jesus image on it with permanent craft glue. Make sure your glue is strong for wood or any surfaces.

For the other ornament, I cut the word Joy from the Peace & Joy Word Dies with permanent White Vinyl and then I added it on the wood slice. And then, I simply added the White Coconut Gelatos pigment on it with finger to give the chalkboard look on it.

All dies will be “Buy 2 Get 1 Free” from December 16th until December 23rd at Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps store!!!

I hope you like these two ornaments today and give it a try to make your own.

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today. Have a blessed season!

Bible Journaling | Fear Not

December is here… Another year almost gone by. There many things uncertain and unknown in the future but today I read this Bible passage from Matthew‬ ‭10‬:‭26‬-‭33‬ ‭that give me peace and courage to keep on moving forward.

“So have no fear of them, for nothing is covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known. What I tell you in the dark, say in the light, and what you hear whispered, proclaim on the housetops. And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows. So everyone who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven, but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny before my Father who is in heaven.”

There any nothing for us to fear because He knows what is hidden and what is in the open. The Lord Jesus himself said that we are of more value that many sparrows. He knows us personally, and whatever our situation is.

He will never denies nor forsake those who acknowledge Him! He commands us to not fear of anything.

On my Bible journaling page, I used:

  • Birds and Blooms Stamp Set
  • Birds and Blooms Die Set
  • Creative Worship Get To The Point Alpha Stamp Set

I stamped all the images on watercolor cardsrock with VersaFine ink pad and then colored then with Arteza Real Brushes and waterbrush. After that, I dried them all with a craft heat gun. And then, I cute them all with the matching dies.

For the background, I also used the Arteza Real Brush, waterbrush, and White Gesso. I dried the page with a craft heat gun and them I ironed it to smooth out the wrinkles on the page.

I added all the pieces on the page with permanent adhesive glue.

I stamped the letters with VersaMagic Night Sky DewDrop ink pad. I dried the ink with craft heat gun. And then, I wrote little note on it with Sakura Micron Pen.

For this month of December, Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps has Big Sale for all die sets! You’re gonna love their collection!

I hope this journaling Bible page can encourage your heart. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog. Blessings!

Mixed Media Card | Never Cold When You’re Here

Winter is here…. For me it is time to bundle up and stay inside! It is only because I was not made for cold weather… HAHAHAHA… But, my friends, it is never cold when you are around me!!!

Today, I made this mixed media card with this penguin using:

– Winter Hugs Clear Stamp Set
– Winter Hugs Die Set
– Diamond Tile Stencil

I created the background using Distress watercolor pencils (set 1,2,3) and white acrylic paint. And then I put the stencil on it and using some White Coconut Gelatos to add the texture on it. I added the background panel on the card with permanent adhesive runner.

I stamped the image with VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink pad and I dried the ink with a craft heat gun. I colored the image using Altenew Artist alcohol markers and after coloring them, I cut them with the matching dies. I added them to the card with permanent adhesive glue.

For the sentiment. I stamped it on a white cardstock with black ink and then I cut it with the label die. I added to the card with thin 3D foam tape. And I embellished the card with some of those snowflake sequins.

Stay warm… Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

Creative Worship | Be Bold And Roar Like A Lion

Hello everyone… Today, I would like to share with you all this Creative Worship art journal: Be Bold and Roar Like A Lion. I hope this can encourage your heart.

I made this art journal on my handmade traveler notebook. On my mixed media traveler’s journal, I used:
– Creative Worship: Lion of Judah Clear Stamp Set
– Creative Worship: Get To The Point Alpha Clear Stamp Set
– Texture Tiles 9 Clear Stamp Set
– Diamond Tile Stencil

When I saw the new Creative Worship: Lion of Judah Clear Stamp Set, I love the sentiments that comes in this set. They are uplifting and encouraging. So, I decided to create the art journal page.

On both pages, I used White Gesso, Titanium White Acrylic Paint, Sakura Watercolor Paints, Gelatos, Distress Oxide inks, VersFine Clair Inks, StazOn ink and spray paints.

I used stamping with stencil technique to start the background and I added more layers on top of the stamped background with stencil, gesso and gelato. And then I added some paint splatters and stamping for adding more texture.

Today, I am participating at the Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps Birthday Inspiration Hop at SNSS Instagram celebrating the 15 years of amazing products this month.
