Stamping on Onesies

I have been interested in stamping on onesies for a long time, but put off trying because I thought it would be difficult to get good results. Finally, I tried it and I am very happy with the results. This is a great idea for a cute, quick gift for a new baby. So easy to personalize with the baby's name. It will be one of the projects that we will do on Friday, March 14 at my Baby on Board! Class @ 7pm.

Supplies used:

white onesie
Wild for You stamp set T-2727
Toodle-Bet stamp set T-2740
TAC Palette inks: Chartreuse and Prussian Blue

Directions:

I would suggest stamping a sample design on paper (trace outline of onesie) before you do it on the fabric. Slip a piece of cardstock inside the onesie so that the ink does not soak through to the back. Ink up your stamp well and be careful not to rock it as you are applying pressure. After I was finished with all of the stamping, I used a hair dryer for a minute to heat set the ink. I think a heat tool might get a little too hot for the fabric.

Time to Celebrate...

TAC is offering double benefits to their customers and hostesses. Customers will receive 2 Gift with Purchase stamps with each $30 purchase. Starting with a $100 party, hostesses will receive 2 level A stamp sets and 2 half-priced items from the catalog. This is a great time to place a $50 order with a friend and both get the hostess benefits!

TAC Spring/Summer '08 Inspiration Book has arrived!

I have lots of the lovely, new TAC catalogs, so just let me know if you would like one. For those of you who don't have a copy, I'll give you a few of the highlights! Of course there are lots of great new stamp sets, but I have to admit that I am the most excited about a couple of the new accessories that TAC now carries. The first is the Scor-Pal. This tool is great for making cards with more complicated folds and makes boxes speedy fast! Another item is the Bind-It-All machine which can put a wire binding into coasters, chipboard, cardstock and more. This is great for making notebooks, mini albums, etc. It sells for $65.95 and you can get it for half-price if you host a FUNshop or place a qualifying order.

Up and running!

Well, here goes. This is my first attempt at blogging. I am an extremely low-tech person, but I am anxious to have a way to share information and ideas about theangelcompany--TAC for short. I signed up to be an Angel (demo) for TAC last year and can say that I haven't regretted it for a minute. The company is low-pressure, friendly, and supportive--all things that I strive to be in my business. I am planning to provide all the latest details on what is going on with TAC and give some useful ideas and tips for your stamping and scrapbooking.
