Here we are, already half way through JustRite's 12 Weeks of Christmas blog hops -- the holidays will be here before you know it!
Today, JustRite is also introducing two more new CLING stamp sets, Sparky and Friends and Sparky the Snowman:
--------------------------------------------------------------
I adore snow people and Sparky and his friends are just the sweetest! Continuing the holiday framed word I'm spelling out (you can see the first two framed letters N-here and O-here), I'm skipping around a bit and here's my letter "L" (for Fa-la-la)! I've used a little bit from both of the stamp sets above in my frame today:
There's Sparky, nestled in his letter "L"! I colored him with the Copic markers listed below, cut him out, and accented him with White Opal Liquid Pearls:
That's Spellbinders Snowflake Border on the left and I'm also sneak peeking some new CUSTOM dies JustRite will be introducing in the next few weeks -- they are the purple dotted corner brackets (in the lower right of the frame, at the top of the letter L and on the lower right of the L!). You'll be hearing more about those soon!
The "Merry Christmas" sentiment is from Sparky and Friends -- it was die cut with another of JustRite's custom dies, airbrushed with Copic BG10 and then stamped with the tiny snowflake from Sparky and Friends. I used Polar White Flower Soft to create a bank of snow along the bottom of the black 5" x 7" frame! I added chunky glitter to a felt snowflake and then stamped the tiny "Fa la la" from Sparky and Friends on the bottom of the letter L.
I have another Sparky and Friends project over at the JustRite blog today -- this wooden birdhouse ornament:
You can find full details over at the JustRite blog today, including how I used Copic R89 marker to custom color/stain the wood edges and eaves of the house to match the patterned papers!
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 most of my fellow Copic design team and Certification instructors! So please visit the blog links below to see what fabulous Christmas projects everyone has for you on the hop today!

Both projects are fabulous and I love the new cling stamps. The snowman bird house is so sweet. It is also great to hear that JustRite will be adding custom dies to their product line.
God bless!
