Our Business is Gearing up for Launch. Would you like to Join?

Hello everyone & I hope you are enjoying your day.  I have some exciting news!!

Sunshine Stamp Co. is gearing for Launch!!

We would like to send out a call for doodlers, designers, hand-letterers (is that a word), bible journalers, planner fanatics, and everyone else.  Currently, what we are looking for are physical and digital doodles and designs that can be used made into clear stamps for bible journaling and planners.  We are also looking for alphabets.

These designs will be created into clear photo-polymer stamp sets.  We are not asking for any specifics because we want people to have room for creativity and showing their own personal style.

We will be planning the next several months of releases, which will occur once a month.  Each month a few stamp sets will be released.  At the moment we are focusing on stamps, and will be looking into stickers and coordinating kits in in the future.

Please pray about whether you should send a sample of your artwork in.  We will be praying over the responses and how God would lead this small business startup.  I greatly appreciate all the kind people in our community who have helped me a long the way and have answered my many questions!

Please e-mail the following to xolittleone@gmail.com

• Your name.
• Links to blog/social media accounts where you share your work.
• Your favorite way to express creativity (bible journaling, planning, doodling, handwriting, etc.)
• Attach a few pictures that show your personal style.  (Please attach .jpg's that are 1000 pixels or less wide).
• Any current design teams or contracts/licensing.
• A few sentences about yourself.

All submissions should be in at midnight (EST) by November 20th, 2015. Everyone will receive a response by November 30th, 2015.  Thank you all!  Please share this on your social media accounts.  Especially for those you know who have a special talent for creativity and art worship.

Thank you all who apply and we cannot wait to get started going over all your applications!

Blessings!!

Bible Journaling Process Video ~ John 4:24

Hello friends!!  Thanks for checking out my blog and I hope you enjoy this process video of one of my favorite verses about worship! :)

New Journaling Bible ....HCSB!!!

ESV was not my favorite version so I was excited to hear that there are new versions in the Journaling Bibles.  So here's my first decorated page in my new bible.  Although it's not my first marked on page.  I felt lead to go highlight Isaiah 6:5 as this is something I need to be working on.

Here are some pictures of my first decorated page.,  This is also my first time ever doing a process video so you will have to let me know if you like that!

I used several different alpha stamps. Heidi Swapp Plastic letters, Heidi Swapp colorshine spray (pink), micron pen 03, StaZon ink (black, teal, and hot pink), white gel pen, platinum zig writer, craft smart acrylic paint, Simple Stories alphas, Artist's Loft Pan Watercolor tray, and Sakura Waterbrush.

Watercolor Worship

Two new pieces I have been working on.  My main focus has been to doodle black and white images, but I've been dying to use the Artist's Loft cheap-ie tray of pan watercolors I got. You know.... the one everyone is using.  So I had some extra fun and water-colored both doodles.  May be using these for stamps in the future.  Anyways.  Give me a thumbs up, or share if you like :)

Bible Journaling Toolbox

I came along this toolbox after finding in the trash.  My dad had cleaned the garage and tossed it, and I saw great potential.  The only downfall is that it is super heavy.  Maybe one day I'll get a newer one, but I'm liking this one for now.  I painted the outside with wall paint and sprayed the tray and inside with workable fixative, just a a sealant.  Once it was dry I started adding my supplies. :)

  

The tray holds the little items that I use a lot.  Tiny attacher, acrylic block, alpha stamps, inks, dot runner, glue stuck, inks, paint brushes, pitt and micron pens, water brushes, pencil, and eraser.  Also, two small cups of banners, tags, and other little bits of ephemera.  

The bottum holds paints (acrylic and watercolor), sprays, more stamps (in CD cases), stickers, alphas, derwent inktense pencils.  If you are ever considering what "watercolor pencils" to purchase, these are BY FAR the best pencils I have used.  More stickers, more alphas, more stamps (alphas)....and stencils.

 

 Thanks for stopping by my blog and checking out my new toolbox :)

Garden Garden Garden

This is my FAVORITE time of year. I love planting seeds, caring for them, and watching with excitement as they begin to grow and over time get bigger and bigger.  My little kale plants are the biggest of the seeds I have started this year.  They are so cute.

So far this year I have planted: corn, watermelon, green squash, tomatoes, cucumber, kale, romaine lettuce, spinach, broccoli, broccoli raab, onions, bunching onion grass, parsley, sage, cilantro, rosemary, lavender, cantelope, peas, carrots, garden beans, sweet banana peppers, variety peppers, strawberries (actually from last year), and pumpkin.  

That's a lot!  I started only planting so many of each kind so I can keep planting seeds every few weeks.  I also plan on learning how to can and make sauces and such.  Love!!

Be blessed <3 Amber Horn
