Hallo,A little quiet time for me this am before I rouse the kiddos to go to church....
I won't get much stamping/blogging time today as I am determined to finish off the sanding today!!! I put in about 5 and 1/2 hours sanding yesterday (and about 4 on friday) - my arms were so sore last night - still a bit of an ache this am but not too bad. I only have about 6 cabinet doors and the bottom cabinets in the house to finish rough sanding and then do some finer sanding but it will still take me most of the day.....
I am hopeing the staining and finishing will only take a couple days......then I have to paint.....
All I can say it #1 This had better be worth it!!!!
#2 This will definatly cure me from thinking of any big decorating projects for awhile.!!!! LOL
Anyway - todays pics are some ornaments that I bought plain at Hobby Lobby. They had a nice matte finish so were easy to stamp on.I used the 'Drummer boy' set from Flourishes and colored them with my copics. The markers didn't blend as nice and tended to streak just a bit on these ornaments but I still liked the way they turned out!!!
I sealed them with some gold toned modge podge.
I did try coloring one with my prismacolor pencils and it didn't turn out as well and then the modge podge made the colors smear just a bit.
I want to give my twinks a try on these next (Tinkling H2O's). maybe I can get my major decorating project done in time to have some time to stamp next weekend.....
All for today - time to get a moving for me ....
Take Care
Tera
