I've been traveling a lot, taking care of my family, and making arts a lot this year.<br />
<br />
Right now, my stamping group is doing Stamp Advent on our group blog.<br />This group is for introducing the joy of stamping to wanna be stamper.<br />
So most of projects are very easy and can be made with limited materials/tool.<br />
<br />
The blog is written in Japanese, but pictures tell most.<br />
<br />

<br />
<b>NEON AMPLIFY!</b><br />
9 colors available, 7 colors matching to our NEON ink pad plus Black and White.<br />
Water based liquid media. Can be doodled, painted, stamped, on almost any surface but should be heat-resistant.because heat setting (usually with heat gun) is needed to activate puffiness.<br />

Hello stampers! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I was told about this RubberMoon project, looked up their website if any of RubberMoon stamps in my hands are still on their catalog. Amazingly, they are all good! Even the stamp saying "<a href="http://rubbermoon.com/products/mk483-please-send-your-catalog-to" target="_blank">please send me your catalog</a>" which I used a lot before internet era. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(For young reader, in those days, we send snail mail to stamp manufactures to ask their printed catalogs..) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finding stamp catalog in my mailbox was soooooo excited all the time. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In such a long period of time, stamping is still exiting no matter how I find them.</div>

How fun to work on the favorite products! <a href="http://memoryboxco.com/" target="_blank">Memory Box</a> offered us a chance to play with their new stamps and dies. I'm in love with their gear dies. They look so cool, adding steam punk taste instantly.<br />
<br />
In order to make these gears realistic, some tricks with Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko products are used.<br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: small;">Interlocking Mini Book</span></h1>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Recently, I came across <a href="http://powertac.blog.shinobi.jp/Entry/1650/" target="_blank">the Japanese blog </a>which is showing how to make interlocking notebook. It looks fabulous, also looks so easy except measuring and cutting which he did with his own acrylic template.</div>
<div>
Instead of his template, I thought I could do with my tools and any size.</div>
<div>
The result turned great.</div>
<div>

<span style="font-size: small;">Stack all inside pages together, and roll up one side, try not to make folding line.</span><br />

Carefully run the rolled stack through center slit of front page sheet, until top and bottom cut out showing.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
When all the inside page sheets come out through the slit, release roll up, make them flat. This is the basic idea of interlocking book.</div>

So the hardest part is done. Now fun part is starting.</div>

Take apart tags from 12x12" paper, did a little sandling to eliminate burrs, then add some ink (Radiant NEON PINK here) for more depth.</div>

Hings are from Authentic Harmony Sticker Sheet.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Great for decorating and also enhancing spine.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Add borders and tag label</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Keep on going to decorate each page with matching Sticker paper, Life Page paper, 6x6 and Tags.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't forget ribbons!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used a lot of ribbons here and there, many are tied around pieces, or make bow and glued. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also, I made adhesive back ribbons with double sided tape.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First glue the tape down on Imagine Crafts's Craft Sheet. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
then, remove backing strip.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Tape will stick to your ribbon, now you have adhesive ribbon.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So easy to make, so fun to use!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
this is how I apply ribbon edge to edge. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Since there's tape on back, ribbon edges are no fraying.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, I'll add ribbon to the cover so that the book can be tied up nicely</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Make 2 holes each on back and front pages.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They should be about 1/2" inside of the edge and spine, also should be lined up straight.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Run ribbon starting from edge. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In from outside, run inside, then come out from spine side hole, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
then again go in to the next hole, run inside, then come out at the edge.</div>

<strong>Blog Hop Hint</strong> <em>– if you click on a link that takes you to a page saying something like, “Sorry this page cannot be found,” just click on the header at the top of the blog (usually a picture, or the blog’s name), and it will take you to that blog’s most recent post. That post *should* be our hop. If not, you can probably scroll down a short way to find the hop post.</em></div>

This Blog Hop means me a lot. Since I started stamping about 20 years ago, Magenta is the top stamp manufacture to me all the time.<br />
Always elegant, always beautiful. always wanting more stamps from them.<br />
I hope this card is qualified for Magenta style.<br />

<strong>Blog Hop Hint</strong> <em>– if you click on a link that takes you to a page saying something like, “Sorry this page cannot be found,” just click on the header at the top of the blog (usually a picture, or the blog’s name), and it will take you to that blog’s most recent post. That post *should* be our hop. If not, you can probably scroll down a short way to find the hop post.</em><br />

Well, I'm not so happy with the result because these ink was too blurred.. I assume watercolor paper will be better instead of regular card stock. Hope I can revenge this soon.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
As a result of water coloring on regular cardstock, the paper got warped very bad.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To fix this, I used die-cutting machine to press it. </div>

Spellbinder's Grand Calibur with embossing plate/foam worked great!</div>

This time, we had full of fun schedule, like stamp convention, trip to northern Japan (for the first time) and class tour, seeing friends and families, and setting up shop/class room for Tsukineko.<br />

Hi All!<br />
<br />
It was about 15 years ago to see the Dreamweaver stencils at local rubber stamp show.<br />
As a stamper, stencil is kind a close tool, of course I purchased a few at the show for trial. That time, demo was coloring with pastel, rather simple, yet so beautiful.<br />
Since those days, tools and materials have been added to stencil world, and each one of them make the project more fun.<br />
<br />
This time, I use Imagine Crafts' Creative Medium as texture paste, in addition to NEON inks.<br />
<br />

***Blog Hop Hint – if you click on a link that takes you to a page saying something like “Sorry this page cannot be found” just click on the header at the top of the blog (usually a picture or the blog’s name) and it will take you to that blog’s most recent post. That post *should* be our hop.

Hi All! I've received fun package from <a href="http://www.alteredpages.com/" target="_blank">Altered Pages</a> for this event sometime ago. I could imagine so many possibilities with these old book pages in many languages, sizes and themes, in addition to a lot of ribbons, laces and embellishments, even um rubber stamp sheet.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the collage sheet with vintage girls faces and doll poem.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My project turned out something recycle. I found this tag was too cool to toss, it's made of chipboard and interesting shape, even ball chain attached, so kept them for my art project, and this is great opportunity to use.</div>

If you're just joining us on the Mixed Media Blog Hop, here' the links to the previous days posts: <a href="http://wp.me/p2GwRo-V4" title="Link to Saturday's Blog List">Saturday</a>, <a href="http://wp.me/p2GwRo-Ve" title="Link to Sunday's Blog Hop List">Sunday</a>
***Blog Hop Hint – if you click on a link that takes you to a page saying something like, “Sorry this page cannot be found” just click on the header at the top of the blog (usually a picture or the blog’s name) and it will take you to that blog’s most recent post. That post *should* be our hop. If not, you can probably scroll down a short way to find the hop post.

<a href="http://www.vlvstamps.com/">VivaLasVegaStamps! </a> Have you ever been there? As the name telling they are at Las Vegas near Strip. They don't have slot machine, but RED RUBBERS! plenty of them!! As soon as opening the doore you'll know you are in the heaven by rubber smell, LOL.<br />
<br />
I was so excited that my next assignment is VLVS! blog hop since I've been big fun of this manufacture, also they have been making new images in addition to their million of them.<br />
<br />
This time I picked up this unmounted sheet. <span style="background-color: white; color: #0a263c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.35;"><a href="http://www.vlvstamps.com/index.php/latest-releases-winter-2013-2014/plate1436.html">Plate 1436</a> </span><br />
and made this collage.<br />

Welcome to a week of fantastic collaboration between <a href="http://imaginecraftsblog.com/" target="_blank">IMAGINE Crafts</a> and <a href="http://www.stampendous.com/" target="_blank">Stampendous</a>! We have to admit that our two companies were made for each other and we're proud to have shared a long relationship of working together. After all, what are stamps with out ink? The projects created by our artists this week feature IMAGINE Crafts Radiant Neon™ inks paired perfectly with coordinating colors of Fran•táge Color Fragments from Stampendous, along with some of their newest stamp designs and Stack Art kits.
</div>
<h3>
<span style="color: magenta;"><strong>Prizes galore for participating in the Blog Hop this week!</strong></span></h3>
We'll be giving three prize packages of 3 Radiant Neon inks and 3 Fran•táge Color Fragments (we'll choose your colors). There will be a bright crafting future ahead of you! <span style="color: #444444;">Each day we’ll post that day's participating artists. Visit their blog and leave a comment by midnight PST May 25th. We ‘ll randomly select three different blogs from the five days, then randomly draw one commenter from each blog. You must have a U.S. mailing address to win, but we’d love for everyone to hop and comment! You can check out the </span><a href="http://wp.me/PsmPc-cQ" style="color: #2491e5;" target="_blank" title="Official Contest Rules">Official Rules</a><span style="color: #444444;"> for all our contests if you have questions.</span><br />
