I made it through to the 7th week! This week’s challenge is “gifts.” 4 crafters and 3 challenges remaining! Please go over and vote on your favorite “gift” craft. Is it getting easier or harder to guess which is mine? Or am I too predictable now?
Wine Cork Stamps
The SYTYC Contest is on hiatus this week. I still have to come up with a project by tomorrow for next week! Here was my submission last week for the “mitten” theme: little matching mitten cork stamps. It didn’t get the most votes but I am still in the game! I used them to create some stationary for a Santa letter….
….and a simple piece of artwork for our guest room night table.
Wine corks are the perfect size for making miniature stamps. (click here to see some others I have made.) I start by slicing off one end of the cork so that I start with a perfectly flat surface:
Then I draw my shape:
And cut straight down around the edges of the shape:
And then carefully cut and chip off the pieces from the sides:
Then just dip them in some paint and stamp away!
So You Think You’re Crafty? Week 6
I made it through to the 6th week! This week’s challenge is “mittens.” 5 crafters and 5 challenges remaining! Please go over and vote on your favorite “mitten” craft….can you guess which submission is mine?
Most of you guessed right last week! Mine was the Princess Snowglobe Shirt. I’ll be putting up a tutorial at the end of this week for it! Thanks everyone who voted! I’m still up against some amazing talent so it is getting harder and harder every week!
