Red Rubber Designs Blog Hop - Love and Friendship


For this month's Spotlight Stamp, Victorian Hearts, I decided to stamp napkins and place cards for table decorations.  I used Noir Palette Ink to stamp the napkins and then colored them with Aqua Color Crayons.  Then I stamped Premium White cardstock for the place cards and colored the image with Copic markers.  The names on the cards are computer generated.


Here's a close up of one of the napkins and place cards.
 


The whole project had  napkins and place cards for four friends for a meal together.  It fits in with the Love and Friendship theme for this month.

Flower Bet by Red Rubber Designs


Today I am showing a project I made with the Flower Bet alphabet stamp set by Red Rubber Designs.  This is a beautiful alphabet set with lots of possibilities.  My project is a framed piece of home decor.  The background paper is Genevieve.  Each letter was stamped separately on white cardstock with purple pigment ink, embossed with clear embossing powder and a heat tool.  Then I used the Spellbinders Nestabilities Big Scalloped Squares to cut them out.  I intended to leave the letters separate, but they did not fit my frame so I had to slightly overlap them.  This could be stood on an easle, as shown, or hung on the wall.  Hope you like it.  Maybe it gives you an idea of something to do with alpha stamps.

Thanks for looking at my blog today.  Blessings to you!
