Hello world! I made it back from Jacksonville safe and sound. The air travel was pretty smooth and I got super lost in Denver. This really shouldn’t surprise anyone. I get lost pretty easy. I had a terrific time in Jacksonville with my downline. They are such a great group of stampers! We had lots of time to chat and stamp and that’s what I love. I have so much to share with you I almost feel a little crazy on where to begin! It’s also the final countdown hours with the old catalog. Ahhh!
Okay, lets start with another Stencil idea. I used the Stencils at my Jacksonville meeting so they can see how wonderful these stencils are. While I have a few of the Stencils, the Kind Thoughts Stencil is my favorite. For all the other projects I have done I have used the Small Kind Thoughts Stencil. Today, I want to show you the Medium Size. I bought this plain Metal Frame at Hobby Lobby last week. I thought it would be fun to use the stencil paste on the frame! Check this out.
Once again, I just put the stencil over the frame and applied the Stencil Paste. Once I lifted the Stencil off the frame I let the paste dry about two hours. Then, I used some DecoArt Elegant Finish Metallic Glaze over the paste using a foam brush. It looks great and FEELS great. I am super proud of how this came out. I am always amazed at how beautiful these stencils work. Just a great product!!!
So, while I was in Jacksonville my friends (AKA Demonstrators) made some cute projects I want to share.
We did a total of 5 projects and these were a few of my favorites. Who am I kidding? I like them all. LOL! The first sample uses the Circle Circus stamp set. You will love this VERSITLE stamp set. It’s a DREAM stamp set. So fun! I just made the circles into Trees.
The second project uses a NEW Hostess Set called Wings of Friendship. Beautiful stamp set. Love that bird! The last project uses my favorite stamp set, Friends 24-7. No, not a new stamp set but the colors are In Color and I just couldn’t help myself and NOT use that set. It’s a sickness I tell you!
All week I have so many things to share. Let’s hope the days cooperate and all gets done.
Enjoy your start of the week!

Hi Kimberly. I love all your projects and am an avid follower of your blog! Your work is awesome. I am a downline of Lisa Freeman’s and will travel with her to convention this year. Look forward to meeting you in person.
Such nice cards! Love the ribbon favours! Your circle circus/scallop circle card is very sweet!
Oh My Gosh, Kimberly. That frame is just stunning. I have been using the stencil for cards and want to try it out with glass etching medium. But this is a whole new and amazing level. Must, must try it. Thanks for sharing your wonderful talent with us.
