Coloring Magic with Stampendous


This week the design team at Stampendous gets to show off two fabulous products! Stampendous and Chameleon Pens are knocking socks off with great stamps and vibrant color tone gradient markers. Be prepared for wow!


I'm so glad you have stopped by my blog. Today I'm sharing Quilted Santa, a new image from Stampendous, that is part of the Christmas in July theme week AND our hop with Chameleon Art Products.

Here is today blog hop participants

Chameleon Blog Hop
Janelle Stollfus - you are here!
Chameleon Pens Blog

and if you have some time to see more great new stamps from Stampendous you can see them on these blogs too!


You can see some awesome videos on how to use these new pens to get you up to speed and having a great time coloring in no time. These pens are super to use when you are on the go and for crafters who want the look of blending different pens with only a set of 20 colors! They are great quality color solution and the pens themselves are lush. It took me a short time to adjust to using only one pen to get gradations in of a color tones and then I was coloring as they instruct with some old habits kicking back in from time to time.

If you haven't used them try them out, or you can hop on over to the Chameleon Pen Blog and find out how to win a pen set of your very own! Stampendous has 4 prize packages up for grabs, so check out the details on their blog!

Let's Celebrate Plain Jane Style!

There is an Anni-Verve-Sary party going on today! Verve Stamp Company is 2 years old! The hop started at Verve's blog , so come hop on board and see over 5 dozen projects that are sure to get your Verve on! I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster. LOL The two cards shown in the picture above use the latest Plain Jane release for Psalm 121:1-2 (hanging on box) and Hebrews 11:1 (in front of box). And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
