InStyle Stamps A Day in the Life of Collection

 With TWELVE days to go, InStyle Stamps thought it would be fun to showcase some of their favorite holiday projects using images from oth A Day in the Life Collection (some are digi, some are rubber). So get comfy and keepthem bookmarked - from today until Christmas you'll see some gorgeous inspiration from the designersover on the InStyle Stamps Blog.

We are starting things off today with Love Couple. This is a great image for lots of special occasions - Valentine's Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, anniversaries, and any other day that is meaningful to a couple. Or you could use it as a tag for homemade goodies.  Love Couple is available in the store as a cling rubber stamp, and quantities are limited - so order soon!!

I altered a paper bag to put some chocolate godies in for hubby ...

I used the digi version of the image and made it big enough to fit the bag.  The image was coloured using my promarkers and matted onto red cardstock.  I've lost the name of the dp, but it is gorgeous, with a lovely, strokeable sheen to it!  I added some dark green raffia and grosgrain ribbon, and a ponisettia created using a Marianne Creatible die set.
I was a little nervous before i started colouring this up, so much detail ... but it was a pleasure to colour.

And if you visit the InStyles blog everyday until Christmas and comment you may be in with a chance of winnig a prize.  We will draw a random commenter from all the people that comment every day, on every 12 Days in the Life post, from now through December 24th. The 25th (Christmas Day) will be a recap post, and you will have until December 27th at 3:00 PM EST to comment on all of the posts. We'll draw a random winner and post it on the 28th. One lucky commenter will win a $25 goodie bag from InStyle Stamps! Remember - you have to comment on ALL of the posts to be eligible!
