Make your own enamel dots

I've been making copper enamel dots. LOTS of dots. I made them in anticipation of a project which has, inevitably, gone a different direction. But I'd love to share the process with you!

Anyone who places an order in my Stampin Up store with this month's host code PNHJG4VD gets a free tutorial (with pictures) of how to make enamel dots, as well as a sample mailed to them!

Focus on art play: The joy is in the creating

Do you feel like you don't have the time or space to play with your art supplies? I try to spend 30 minutes (at least) a day on art, but I'll be honest. It doesn't always happen. I love how Carolyn Dube over at A Colorful Journey approaches art play. She recommends using supplies that you have readily available and consider it "playing." We forget how to just play, and we need to rediscover it! Check out her free Permission to Play Workshop!

Don't worry that you have the "wrong" supplies--there is no such thing! Don't worry that your project "should" look a certain way--you're just playing!

Get out your art supplies and have fun this week! The joy is in the process, not the end product.

Old & New: Happy Birthday Die

I have a pile of unused Designer Series Papers (DSPs), and I know if I put them away, they will never get used! So I set out to turn the papers into cards. This set features the Festive Birthday papers and the brand new Happy Birthday die. What an easy way to make fun cards, appropriate for male or female of almost any age! I think you'll love using this new die as much as I do! You can order it on Thursday, June 1 after noon Mountain Time.

So get those papers cut into layers and ready to be USED!
