Deer hunting season opens on November 18th here in Wisconsin.  While my brother and nephew will be making our house their home base during hunting season, I am not a hunter myself.  You will be able to find me working on projects in my Stamping Studio aka Deb’s Stampin’ Grounds!

Please shop with me for your papercrafting supplies.

I love that Stampin’ Up! offers color coordination so that the ink, cardstock, and embellishment colors match.  It takes the guess work out of trying to match up products.

You can be sure that the Real Red ink will match the Real Red cardstock and Real Red Ribbon perfectly!

Don’t forget to check out the All Inclusive Card & Project Kits    They make wonderful gifts for crafters in your family.  The kits are also a great way to introduce stamping to someone!

Be an Artist with the new Stampin’ Blends Markers!

I’m thrilled that Stampin’ Up! has a new line of alcohol markers.  It’s easy to be an artist with these markers because you can color and blend colors with ease.  Each color of the Stampin’ Blends come in sets of 2, a light and a dark.  The 2 markers, along with a Color Lifter, give you the ability to have varying intensities of each color.

Best of all, the new Stampin’ Blends markers are available to order today, Nov. 1st!

Here is a Matchbook Style card I created where I used Daffodil Delight and a touch of Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends to color the flower.. The finished card size is 4-1/4″ x 5-1/4″.

Color me happy now that you can order Stampin’ Blends and enjoy the same artistic fun that I’ve been having.  I hope you love them as much as I do!

You can order the Stampin’ Blends here.  Check out the new Color Me Happy Card Kit and coordinating Color Me Happy stamp set.  While I highly recommend using Stampin’ Blends markers to color the images and complete the Color Me Happy card kit, you can also use your regular inks along with the Aquapaitner or Blender Pen.

The Color Me Happy kit is amazing!  You won’t be disappointed!  🙂

***The Color Me Happy Card Kits and Color Me Happy Stamp Sets will only be available while supplies last.
