Easy, affordable and effective way to refashion a top

Tutorial at Cute Simple Stuff Blog

"This top right here was one of my faves, it´s just one of those tops that is so comfy you can sleep on it, but so versatile you can dress it up with some necklace, a nice hairstyle and some heels, and you are good to go. BUT it got bleach stained, maybe it was a splash from when I was doing my laundry, sad moment, and I was just about to give up any hope on using is again, but then I thought of “saving it” by adding some stenciled pretty roses, stamping them.

Makes a good gift for your scrapbooking or stamping friends

Tutorial at Craft Cravings Blog

"Today’s project is easy and will save you money if you’re a scrapbooker or stamper.

Tutorial - How to Make Patterned Stamps

Make stamps in two different ways with recycled materials

Tutorial at Curly Made Blog

"Some time ago, I asked Hannah from Hannah Lauren and Co if she wanted to do a shared DIY project with me, and after some thought we decided to create patterned stamps.

I get e-mails all the time from people living in other parts of the world who do not have access to bleach pens and  ask if I could suggest an alternative. There are alternatives, but since I have not tried them out, I am hesitant to recommend anything. However, finally I had some time to play around.
