“JustRite 12 Weeks of Christmas Blog Hop #4”.

Welcome to JustRite Stampers’ newest Wednesday feature, 12 Weeks of Christmas Blog Hops #4! Every Wednesday up until Thanksgiving some of your favorite designers will be joining some of the JustRite design team for a series of Christmas blog hops, showcasing JustRite’s entire Christmas Collection of stamps! This week, it’s the Spellbinders design team! So mark your calendars for Wednesdays at 9am Central for great Christmas gift, card & project ideas, starting at the JustRite Inspiration blog!

For my first project I created this beautiful Christmas Ornament using JustRite Stampers JB-08775 Something Sweet Set. I also used a few of my favorite die templates from Spellbinders, S4-114 Standard Circles Large and S4-286 2010 Snowflake Pendant, My Minds Eye Holly Jolly - Jingle Bells pattern paper. I started out by using a coaster set that I found at Michael's in the $1.00 bin.

I covered the coasters with the pattern paper from MME using Zip Dry from Beacon. Here is a picture of Santa's little helper (her name is Leahandra) helping to sand all of the chip board circles. Didn't she do a great job?

Here is a couple of close ups so you can see all the details in the ornaments.

Don't you just love this stamp set, I know I do. The cardstock is Light Heritage White from Worldwin, ink is Tuxedo Black from Memento and the markers are none other then Copics!!! Here is my second project

For this ornament I also used the JB-08775 Something Sweet set from JustRite Stampers. I used S4-114 Standard Circles Large, S4-124 Classic Scalloped Circles Large, S4-225 Holiday Cheer and  S4-284 2010 Holiday TreeSpellbinders die templates. I airbrushed the trees with Copic markers anded paper sprinkles and diamond dust for the sugar look, don't they look like real cookies?
I hope you have enjoyed my JustRite creations and thank you for stopping by my blog!

New Design Team

Well, the cat is out of the bag so to speak. I was asked about 3 weeks ago to be the design team coordinator for an online store call Creating Memories In Time, this is a well known E-bay store. I was so honored to have someone ask me to not only  head up their design team but pick my own designers too. My head was just swirling but I had three talented ladies already in mind and here they are:

Heidi Blankenship http://embellished-dreams.blogspot.com/

Margarita Ybarra http://mycreationsbymy.blogspot.com/

Mary Pfaff  http://crafty-cabin.blogspot.com/

Thank you team for coming on board and I look forward to seeing all the wonderful projects you create. Thanks for stopping by my blog....hugs Terre
