Hey everybody! Happy Monday – the Mondays sure do seem to roll around fast these days! I’ve popped in this morning to share my first inspiration project as a Pajama Crafter Stamps DT member! Pajama Crafter Stamps is the new home of the Prickley Pear Stamps brand and the Pajama Crafter Stamps line! Joy and Shawn became the new owners of Prickley Pear Stamps a few months ago and have started the new Pajama Crafter Stamps line which fully debuts today! I’ve been on the Prickley Pear Stamps DT for almost four years and was invited to stay on as a Pajama Crafter Stamps team member, so here I am! ;)
Please join Pajama Crafter Stamps as we celebrate all things new… NEW YEAR, NEW BRAND, NEW TEAM and NEW RELEASE… in our “Everything’s New” Insta-Hop! Our design team has created some gorgeous projects with the new release products and the hop starts today on the Pajama Crafter Stamps Instagram page where you’ll find the complete hop list. By following and leaving comments or likes at all the stops on the hop, you’ll be in the running for a $25 gift card from Pajama Crafter Stamps! A random winner will be chosen from all comments and likes left by 11:59 PM EST on January 15th and announced on the Pajama Crafter Stamps Instagram and Facebook pages on January 17th.

I created an ornament featuring the adorable Sliding By stamp set from the Pajama Crafter Stamps new release! How stinkin’ cute is this penguin?! And I love using non-traditional colors for Winter-themed projects!

I’ve had the Splitcoast Stampers tutorial for the diamond shaped ornament (HERE) in my arsenal for quite some time and have never made one, so I decided it was time! I stamped the penguin on Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock in Memento Tuxedo Black ink, colored it with alcohol markers, and cut it with a Keep It Simple Stitched Circles Nested Die. Similarly, I stamped the sentiment on a Solar White scrap and trimmed it into a flag. I used Keep It Simple double-sided pink paper for the ornament and Rose ribbon for the bow, along with Really Reasonable Ribbon silver metallic cord for the hanger. I embellished the ornament with individual sequin bits pulled from the Buttons Galore & More Blizzard Sequin Mix.
