Full of Thanks and Giving

Hi everyone! Uh oh. It's only day two, and I don't have anything to say. Ha! Let's get to it.


It's day 2 of Neat & Tangled's release week! Today we're sharing projects using the Be Full stamp set. Danielle is sharing pictures of the set on the Neat & Tangled blog.

Here's what I made:

Be Full


Over a month ago, I watercolored a background using spray mists for another project. It ended up not working, but I kept it in my pile of "maybe I'll use it someday" elements. When I saw the Be Full stamp set, I knew it would work! Yeah!

I stamped the sentiment with Brilliance Black ink, which added some extra shimmer to the already-shimmery misted background:

Be Full 

I had to stitch down that panel, so I added some wonky stitching. The layered elements in the corner are from Simple Stories. I know poinsettias don't grow acorns, but it looked good.

Be Full

There's a giveaway! Comment on the Neat & Tangled blog to win the Be Full stamp set.

Thanks for stopping by!
