Kinkade Extravaganza!

It is release day for this Hometown Pride image at Cornish Heritage Farms! I am excited to be a part of this team and this is the first TK release that I have been involved with. I hope to show you some fun ways to use these beautiful stamps! First off, coloring. This card was colored using my copic markers. The full tutorial is now up in the technique forums of CHF. You can find this tutorial HERE. I love to color these images with the markers.

Here is a close shot of the image itself. I love to see flags waving off of people's homes. Looks like a lovely street to live on.

Now, onto some projects! The focal point of this image has to be that flag. There are so many military wives and supporters that I thought a lovely brooch would look great with this image. I also captured in this photo the red rubber side of the vingette stamp. I love how detailed this stamp is and how deeply etched and yummy the rubber is. We do get a little giddy about our rubber, don't we...lol! Here are the deets on this project:

Last, but not least, you knew I had to incorporate a fabric project of some sort! How about a tote for the parade! I know as a mom I am always bringing things like sunscreen, snacks, water bottles etc to a parade. I wanted to see how a finely detailed stamp would work on fabric. This is not an iron-on, it is direct to fabric stamping. Make sure you have a high thread count fabric and ink up your stamp really well and press hard....I was so pleased with the results!
