I am finally using one of the $1 stamps I got at Michaels around Christmas time .. and Here it is .. The dollar stamp is "Believe in Miracles ". This my card I used the metallic pencils from SU!, I don’t know why I don’t used these pencils more cause they are wonderful. I used Glossy card stock and stamped the in full bloom stamp set images in Black Staz-On and then colored in the images with my Metallic pencils , I then used Chocolate chip classic ink with my brayer and covered the glossy card stock right over top of the image and the metallic pencils .. Once I got the color I wanted with the Chocolate Chip, I took a napkin and buffed the metallic penciled areas .. I really like the way it turned out It seems to glow a bit HUH? I then did the DTP ( Direct to paper ) on the Creamy Caramel Card stock with Creamy caramel classic ink, And then Of course added doodle dots .
Today I am going to be out and about making deliveries .. YAHOO! I got our BIG order in last night from our Club meeting , Jessie has a dentist apt . today to tighten up her retainer( I guess this is a normal thing 6 weeks after getting her retainer… Still haven’t heard anything on the job front for hubby 🙁 But its going to be ok .. Cause Our God is an AWESOME GOD!
BIG news on the church front .. for those who know we have been without a Pastor since April of Last year and what a rough road this has been , BUT Praise God we are having a Business meeting on February 7th at the meeting we will be picking a date to have a call from a pastor that wants to be our new pastor YAHOO! Him and his family will be at our church for the weekend ( that we the church decide on the 7th ) with Saturday night being a pot luck and Q&A time then Sunday morning he will preach for the whole church .. Please be in prayer with us that it is the man GOD wants for our church ..
I have been asked by a few other bloggers that they want to add a link to my blog on their blog . What an Honor!! Its so Great seeing everyone blogging these days .. When you add my link Just please let me know NOT because you have to ask me for permission But because I want to add your link to mine also. Over the weekend I stumbled onto a few blogs and they had a link to my blog ..

Hi Dawn! I’m not sure if I mentioned that I’ve added your blogs to my links or not….
Thanks for being one of the few blogs that I visit every day and love the fact that you are so faithful to update your blog daily as well!
Absolutely beautiful Dawn! I’m so proud of you for praising God in your time of trial! I just can’t wait to see what He has planned for you guys next…It will be amazing!
Just love your card! I don’t have the pencils something to think about for the next club meeting!

I absolutely love this card sweetie! It’s gorgeous!!! I need to purchase some metallic pencils!!!
I am praying for you and your family too 🙂
Big Hugs!!!
well what do you know, I have everything you used, except for the stamp set, but my neighbor has that, so between the two of us, we could make it together!
Yipee!
What a beautiful card! Don’t have the pencils unfortunately. I really enjoy reading your blog. It inspires me not only in stamping but also in life. I am praying that you will get the RIGHT Man of God to be your pastor! Would love to hear when you get the right person.
I did add your link to my blog but my blog isn’t about stamping so you are ok without adding mine.
I read yours every day. Loved the card today. I, too, have wanted the metallic pencils but never seem to remember to order any. Maybe next quarter DawnMercedes will remind me. Thanx
Dawn,
This card is stunning! I have never tried puting ink over an image and than wiping it off. I love the effect that you got doing this. 🙂

I love this card! It’s beautiful what you’ve done with the metallic pencils. I didn’t know how to use them, so I’ve never bought them. I may just have to think twice!!
I love your site… I had to add you to mine! Thanks for sharing!
