Stamping on Buttons



I am so excited about this Monday morning...I think there is something fresh and new about the beginning of a new week. Hope you are anticipating a great week too.

Today's card started from a scrap of vintage wall-paper. I sometimes think I am an "old" lady stuck in a young woman's body -- just because of the things that I love!

There really wasn't much needed for this card after I glued the scrap of paper to my card...just wanted to pull out some of that red and green in the embellishments...and chose a couple of buttons to do that. They looked too "modern" on the page...so I decided to stamp a bit on them.

To stamp on plastic you need to use solvent ink (Like Stazon or Archiver Ink by Ranger). Because of the rounded surface on buttons, I have found that small stamps work best. You can stamp and turn the button several times until it has been covered with the image the way you like.

Just tie a bit of twine through the buttons and add to your page...and you have a lovely embellishment!

Have a superb week...filled with lots of creativity!

    Did you emboss the buttons after you stamped them? Or put something over them so the ink wouldn't smear? Also did you use white ink?

    Simply Gorgeous!!!

    I am also feeling awesome this Monday! The more springlike weather and sunshine is doing it along with help from my Savior! I am determined to be His beacon this week and see the positive in everything & everyone! (I struggle with the latter at times!)

    I came across a little stash of vintage wallpaper this weekend and need to do something with it. You've inspired me! (as always!)

"What? You Are Drawing and Painting In Your Bible?!?!?!"

This question was followed by the whispered question, "Don't you think that makes God mad? It's HIS WORD!"  Yes...let me introduce myself. Hi, I'm Jann and I am a Bible Journal-er! Since you have seen me draw on just about anything...you are probably not as surprised as my friend with whom I had this conversation. And just to be clear, I'm not poking fun at her - I think that I have had that exact same conversation with myself over the years of my personal study...because even though I have recently started painting in my Bible - I have written my heart out in the margins of many Bibles as I have dug into God's Word to learn everything that He has wanted to teach me. And I have often drawn small images to remind myself of a principle -- like the one I drew here at the end of the book of Genesis! Rabbit Trail : I felt that it ends rather abruptly - after we have studied all the things that happened to Joseph over the course of his life the final sente

 As many of you know -- I have started a small business to continue sharing beautiful content with you. I am thrilled that the Lord continues to let me be creative and is showing me ways to do so in spite of being diagnosed with Parkinson's. I am not alone in facing challenges -- and I want to be a source of encouragement for those of you that find yourself in a different season of life -- maybe with some physical challenges -- or just the process of not being as young as we once were....that is the natural progression of things...and I am convinced that God intends for us to continue to be His image bearers via our creativity -- regardless of our season of life. So many of you have encouraged me with your support...and I am loving creating printable digitals that you can use in your crafting -- whether that is card making, Bible Journaling, Junk Journaling or scrapbooking. I will have some new collections coming out soon...but I couldn't resist giving you a sneak peek...and a
