SweetStamps #70: MicroBeads



Good morning everyone-
Sorry if I seem a little rushed this morning, but it’s because I am!!  LOL. I had a super long weekend…A really good one too.
So let’s get to today’s post.
Today’s SweetStamps challenge is:
MICROBEADS
I have a love/hate relationship with these little obnoxious beads!!!  They are so fun to play with and look really great on projects, but man they can be a real drag if they get everywhere!!!  Smile 
Here is my card sample for this week:
SS#70
Aren’t those Swans beautiful???  This stamp is called Swan Family  by Jacqueline Hill. I colored the image using my new and fabulous Distress Markers!! I love them so MUCH!!!!!! So you will be seeing a lot more watercolor images once I head to the supply store to stock up on on more watercolor paper!!!  YEAH!!  Here a close up of the image, you can see the microbeads a lot better in this shot.
SS#70b
So I hope that you will add a little microbead or sugarbeads to your project this week and join us.
Can’t wait to see what you create with it.

  3. Beautiful design sweetie, the beads look great...I agree about cleaning up after spilling. I found using a large coffee filter as a way to catch
