Get ready to be inked, pasted, encrusted, stenciled and stamped! All of this week the Dreamweaver Stencils' Dream Team and the Stampendous Design Teams will be providing some "Dream-pendous" inspiration for you, with multiple opportunities to win some fabulous prizes from both companies. Each day this week, you will be directed from both the Stampendous Impressions' blog or the Dream It Up! blog to the players du jour for your oohing and aaahing pleasure. Everyone will be playing on Saturday, the 14th with our final hop for the week. This is your opportunity to see how to mix and mingle your creativity...if you are a stenciler, you will be fascinated at combining stamps with your first love. If you are a stamper, you will be wowed at how stencils can add to your impressions.



Today I used my stencil as the focal point and the stamp to enhance it.

Start with LX7008 Torch Ginger Paste one flower with Black Glossy Paste. Remove stencil and cover the flower with Stampendous Bronze Crushed Glass Glitter. Lightly sprinkle Stampendous Aged Gold Embossing Enamel over leaves. Let dry completely. Once dry heat the embossing enamel till melted. Next take the largest frame from Stampendous SSC1142 Vintage Frames. Ink it with Black Pigment Ink. Stamp on card front. Sprinkle Gold Embossing Enamel here and there over frame. Tap off. Cover the rest of the frame with clear embossing powder. Cut out flower and position inside frame on front of card with 3-D tape.

Be sure to leave comments as you tour the blogs (with your email addy!) for a chance to win* one of three combined sets of these Dreamweaver and Stampendous goodies:




Leave me some love before you "gear up" for the next player:
