Welcome back my sweet friends! It's been very quiet here lately... so much going on in my life right now! Actually, when isn't there something going on in each of our lives??? Just sometimes, it seems more intense... This is another season of change for me. My 'baby' moved out on Saturday (waaaaaaaaaa). I'm excited for him, but also sad :( As a mom, don't you just want to hold onto your children forever? I wouldn't mind lol! BUT, I have good news! I'm gonna have a new craft room!!! I try and focus on that instead of missing my son. Most times it works, but then something comes up and I get this pain in my heart (waaaaaaaaaaaa). Enough blubbering! Let's move on to something FUN...
If you haven't heard, Susana has announced the New Outbreak of Peeker Fever! Oh my! Did you love the 'old' Peekers? Well, get ready for the BEST Peekers ever! I don't know how Elisabeth Bell does it, but she keeps getting better n better!!! I can't even tell you a favorite in this New Release... you'll definitely want 'em all! There are still two Peekers you haven't seen, so you'll want to check out the Designers showcasing those Wednesday and Thursday (see Store Blog). AND... there are even two more which won't be shown until Release Day on July 29. So many adorable stamps Oh My!
Today's Sneak Peek is Bubble Bath Peeker by Elisabeth Bell for SCACD. I'm tellin ya... I sure could use a spa day - not to mention a good soak in the bathtub!
Except for the flip flops, I've gone Crystal Gel crazy again : ) Need I repeat myself and say, "I LOVE this stuff!!!" The 'bubble' button on the bow and the rubber ducky started out as buttons. I created a mold for each one and filled them with Transparent Crystal Gel. When dry (I usually let it sit overnight) I popped them out of the molds, trimmed the excess (very easy to do) and painted them. Ta Da! Unique embellies that I can make over and over and paint any color I want. How great is that? I'm tellin ya... I am having a BLAST with Crystal Gel and mold making. I also have quite a few colors of Modeling Creme that you'll soon be seeing as more unique and personalized embellies. Oooooh, I can't wait for you to see the embellies I've made for Release Day! I can hardly believe I made 'em... Check back here on the 29th - I may be able to get a mini tutorial together for you by then. If you love molds, you won't want to miss this!!!
Splish splash... so many bubbles lol! Liquid Applique makes fabulous bubbles : ) Everything is wet in this adorable image... even the shiny bathtub! Diamond Glaze does such a great job making things shiny - LOVE it! DP is from the awesome Be Mine Paper Pad by Echo Park. Another LOVE it hee hee... For a little sparkle, I've outlined the inner panel and edges of the doily (which is actually cs cut with a die!) with Viva Decor Glitter Liner. I only used a little, but it sure does have a BIG sparkle! The flower centers on the flip flops and the black 'pearls' in the corners are Granite Paper Pen - yay... I finally got to use black : )
So happy to be back... I've missed you!
Have a fabulous day ♥
