Blog Candy!


How would you like to win two of justjohanna's SUPERCUTE little stamps? I happen to have a brand-new Allison little stamp and Mini Cupcake stamp for the taking! All you have to do is leave a comment on this post telling me your favorite non-SU! ink to use and your favorite non-SU! embellishment! It's as easy as that! Good luck to you! ;)
I'll choose a (random) winner this Friday morning and announce it here!

Pink justjohanna!



I made these projects for the new justjohanna boutique in California! I had found these key holders at the dollar spot at Target probably a year or two ago. I just recently got around to altering one, believe it or not! I love the result. I may have to make one to go in our kitchen! (Drew, whaddya think?) ;) The original pieces started out with two tiles with wild animals on them (I covered them with cupcake paper tiles, obviously!). The candle is just a simple candle, probably from the dollar store, which I altered by stamping and coloring an image on plain tissue paper and sealed onto the candle using wax paper and a heat gun.


Stamps: Cherry Cupcake (justjohanna). Paper:Groovy Guava, Stamper's Select White, Basic Black, Crate DP. Ink: Palette Noir. Accessories: Copic Markers, Stickles, Hero Arts Rhinestones, Key Rack (Target $ Spot a while ago).









Stamps: Al with Stars (justjohanna). Paper: Tissue paper! Ink: Palette Noir. Accessories: Wax Paper, Copic Markers, Sakura Pen.

Happy Birthday, Colton! :)


I used an oldie-but-a-goodie to make this simple card for Cameron's buddy Colton. Happy second birthday, friend! :)

Easter Egg




I made this egg card as a result of a JustJohanna DT project for another team than the one I was on. The challenge was to create a Faberge egg-inspired, egg-shaped card. As I've said, I LOVE Easter, and the challenge really got me thinking about this idea. I made this card using the Coluzzle oval template and hand-drew the crack in the egg. It opens up to a cute little chicklet and an Easter greeting! :) I love it!

Stamps: Chicklet Right, Happy Easter (Whimsy), Floral Flourish Right. Paper: Very Vanilla. Ink: VersaMark, Palette Noir. Accessories: Shimmer Chalks, Coluzzle with Oval Template.

New stamps taking the stage...


Look! Look! Johanna has released some FABULOUS new images! Like this new stage stamp. Can't you just see all the cute little birdies taking center stage for a solo debut? Also among my favorites are the cute little chubby cow and the sentiments. By the way, the "ciao!" stamp was inspired by.................ME!! (I am patting myself on the back right now.) I just really think ciao! goes along with the scooter (especially, but not exclusively) so well! Don't ya think?
Run, don't walk over to this page to see the new releases: http://shop.justjohanna.com/category.sc?categoryId=5
