Flirty Flamingo Part 2: Color Markers

Good afternoon!! This is a part 2 of the Flirty Flamingo technique. Follow along with the tutorial and post comments. Each comment gets you added into the raffle pool. At the end of the week, I'll pull out one name and the winner gets an ink pad for free!! 



This technique goes over how to get different colors on a single stamp! Wouldn't it be great if stampin up had stamps broken up how we'd like to use them. Like the pineapple in this stamp set is one stamp! So, if I used an ink pad, I'd get green or yellow! 

Well, there's an easier way! 

Step 1: Mount the stamp onto the block! Hardest part, I know! Sometimes those buggers don't want to stick. 

Step 2: Take your green markers and color in the top green! 


Step 3: Color in the bottom yellow! 


Step 4: Stamp away! 



This is the part 2 of the tutorial that makes the Flirty Flamingo Card. So, now you have the marbled paper, cut out some ovals, stamp your flamingo and put it all together!

Organized Card Giver Post #2: Prepare to Succeed!

Hey everyone,  If you’re reading this post, it means you’re somewhat serious about the New Year’s resolution to send cards to people you care about. Do me a favor and give yourself a quick pat on the back from me. Starting is half the battle.  Actually, it’s more important to start, than to succeed. People that start something are usually the ones that end up finishing strong. I tend to procrastinate, just like everyone else. But, just like with anything, if I tell myself, just start….just run for 5 mins, just workout for 5 mins, just clean for a minute, I build momentum to keep going forward. Then when the time is up, its not so bad. You can keep going more… That’s exactly what we’re going to do this week. We’re going to start strong. That’s all you need to do for this week. I know the New Year’s doesn’t start until a month from now, but we want to actually hit the ground running as soon as the new year hits. So, preparation is the key here. For this week#1, and...

Organized Card Giver Post #4 Technology Hack For Keeping Addresses And Birthdays Organized

Hey everyone,  Last post I mentioned keeping a google document for birthdays. Were you thinking.....I'm sending handmade cards to avoid technology and how impersonal it feels! So, why is this woman, asking me to use technology for birthdays?!  I ask myself everyday, what the balance is between technology and personal. I like to use personal handmade gifts and cards or spend quality time with family and friends. But, I like to use technology almost like a personal assistant. If you are related to me, you know I would not even know what to buy at the grocery store if it weren't for my amazon Alexa.  I tend to forget things. Do you ?  I will at times have momentary lapse and forget even the names of my colleagues and then I end up with an awkward..." hey you!! " Very similarly...I forget birthdays, not because I don't care, but because I just can only keep so many things in my head. This is where I like to use technology.  One of the reasons ...
