The merge is nearly done

Previously I had a blog titled "Wonder Stamping". When I decided to give my business a name and register a domain, I decided to create a new blog-- Inkabella Designs.

I've just finished importing my posts from my previous blog, but now I need to go through them to insure the photos also imported. Please bear with me as I finish my conversion.

I did teach a very small class last night on how to make the quilted "rag bag" purses. We had a lot of fun and will be getting together again next weekend to work on another bag. I also taught how to make those cute fleece flower pins that have been showing up around the internet world a lot recently. I will post pictures tonight.

If you're in the Sacramento area and would like to get together for some stamping, I'm holding a workshop on Saturday, September 18th from 12:30 to 2:30 at the Round Table Pizza at 1307 Florin Road. The cost is $10 and we will be making 3 projects. I will share photos soon! They have an all you can eat buffet from 11:30 to 1:30 if you wish to show up a little early for lunch.

Hope to see you there! Happy Stamping! ♥

Holiday Mini Share - Tags til Christmas

I was able to participate in a Christmas card swap and wanted to share with you all the card that I made.

I used the Tags til Christmas set from the new Holiday Mini (page 24). I used our Shimmer Paint in Platinum (Item #116807) and mixed it with some rubbing alcohol to make a shimmer paint spray. I then sprayed a sheet of whisper white cardstock. After it dried and the alcohol evaporated, I stamped the ornament image in Cherry Cobber. You can see some of the shimmer. I then used our Rhinestones (#119246) to add a little more sparkle.


Here is the list of items I used to make this card:

Stamp Set: Tags til Christmas
Ink: Cherry Cobbler (stamp pad), Old Olive (marker)
Card Stock: Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, Confetti white, Whisper white
DSP: Brights--Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack
Assessories: Basic Rhinestones, Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder, Big Shot

I'm planning a Tags class coming up in the next couple weeks. If you would like to host a workshop and earn this set (or others) for free, contact me to set up a time thats best for you! I even offer one-on-one workshops if you want to just get together and stamp!


I hope you enjoyed this share! Please leave a comment and let me know what you think. I love hearing from you.

Happy Stamping! ♥ Raberta
