Stamped Clay Feather ATC **Makin's Clay & Beacon & Canvas Corp & Brutus Monroe & Eyelet Outlet**

I have been dying to try the idea of stamping on clay, and what better way to try out an idea that you do a little project, and the best way to to try out an idea, make an ATC.  An ATC is an artist trading card, it measured 3"x4" and you can do what ever you want, try out new techniques, play with new material, try a new design, or just have fun!!   I did a little of them all.



Here is a full video tutorial on how to make these fun ATCs and how fun it is to stamp on clay to make your own 3D embellishments!!


Here are some up close shots of the this fun idea!








The Makin's Clay is an air dry clay so how you stamp on it come out exactly the same after it has dried, no changes!!  Plus the Brutus Monroe Ink can stamp on anything and not smear, a perfect match!!















Now the other point to a ATC is to give them away, who shall I give them to?!!?

Product Review - Squeaky Clean Stamp Cleaner by Brutus Monroe

In my first box of items fro Brutus Monroe came this little bottle of stamps cleaner called Squeaky Clean Stamp Cleaner.  I had to test it out on as many things I possibly could to see if it held up to its name and how good or bad it really was.  I was blown away with how amazing this little bottle of cleaner was.  It is truly an amazing liquid in a bottle that can clean stamps, stamp blocks, stamps pads, and craft mats.


This really magic in a bottle than make make your stamps like new again!!  It is non toxic and even helps your hands feel soft and smooth.  I took a bunch of old dirty stamps and cleaned them with this amazing cleaner and it amazing me how well it cleaned each and every stamp from rubber mounted, acrylic, cling, and even foam.  Stamps of every brand and quality looked amazing after being cleaned.

I even tried other inks on the Brutus Monroe stamps to see how well it cleaned up with the Squeaky Clean Stamp Cleaner and every single brand I tried cleaned right off the stamps.  Check out my product review video to see just how amazing this cleaner really is!!



I even cleaned off my stamp blocks, stamp mats, and my craft mat and got them looking so much better with just a little spray and a paper towel.  So check it out the stamps cleaner, you will not be disappointed!!  It is specially formulated to work with the Brutus Monroe Stamps and Inks by it does play nice with all other brands too!


Time to get Squeaky Clean and get your stamps ready for crafting!!

Review of Paper Pumpkin Kit Card by Stampin Up

I picked up this box from a CKC convention about 2 years ago.  It is from Stampin Up and it is a card kit program called Paper Pumpkin.  I have not touch it since I got it except for taking the ink out of it, and have since lost the kink, boo.  As I was cleaning up my studio I came across the kit again and thought, let do this!!  So here are the 4 cards that were in the kit.

  

There is a special going on right now for buy one and the get next half off.  I do not work for Stampin Up or get any profit from this post, just a fun things I found in my stash from a conference from years past.
