Tuesday's Tip # 4.....

....Sponges.

Stampin' Up sell Sponges in a pack of 3 for $7.95 (NZ).

I cut my sponges into 12, some people like to use the sponges whole, others cut them into 4 or 8.

Isn't that great value 36 sponges for $7.95.

I find it easier to sponge with a 1/12 of a sponge, I get inky fingers but that's fine.

 I keep a sponge for each colour, so I punch out a tab using my Round Tab Punch I fold it over my sponge and staple it and label it. The sponge above will be my Pear Pizzazz sponge. 

No more having to wash my sponges.

Here is how I store my sponges and Daubers.

 I store both my sponge and dauber in the same area, in a container with dividers, I think I got my mine from 'The Warehouse'.

I now need to buy a new one and I will get my labeler out and put them into their Colour Collections.

Now here is project I have made, I have used sponges.

This Magnolia Flower is made using the Ornament Punch, which I have sponged with Blushing Bride Ink (In Colour), the leaves are punched out of Pear Pizzazz folded in half and put through the Crimper.

I found it on Sharri's Blog and click here to view the Video Tutorial.

I just Love it.
