Introducing the Home for the Holidays Collection
It's time to celebrate a NEW Stamp of Approval Box from Catherine Pooler called Home for the Holidays with a video hop! More information about Stamp of Approval is at the end of this post if you are unsure what this collection is all about.
YouTube Video Blog Hop featuring Wood Slice Ornaments
Today some of the Design Team are participating in a video hop and I hope you'll join me over on my YouTube channel. If you leave a comment on my video on my YouTube Channel you'll have a chance to win the entire Stamp of Approval Collection!!
The wood slice ornaments are fun and easy to make! I hope you enjoyed seeing the process!
Here are some close ups of the wood slice ornaments on packages.
Tips:
- Paint 3 coats of acrylic white or black paint on each ornament for best results
- Use a juicy VersaMark pad for best results (or re-ink the pad you have)
- If you want your image to be brighter when you stamp a design you can either paint one coat of Mod Podge on the bare wood and then paint 3 coats of white acrylic paint next OR you can paint 3 layers of acrylic paint & then paint one coat of Mod Podge on top (see in the video the difference it makes on what layer you paint the Mod Podge on)
- If you leave the wood untreated the ink soaks into the wood so quickly that it is very hard to stamp and/or emboss on the bare wood (speaking from experience here). If you want the natural wood look I'd suggest using a matte Mod Podge first on the surface and then stamping and embossing.
- When embossing on top of the black acrylic paint if you use WOW embossing powder you will not need to use an embossing buddy/tool to make your powder not stick where it isn't suppose to be, therefore reducing the white powdery residue left behind.
- If you use an embossing buddy/tool to help keep the embossing powder from sticking where it isn't suppose to, use a soft wet rag to dab the powder off when you are finished.
So, What is Stamp of Approval?
