Found these cool pens at Ben Franklin (they're only 49 cents!!). It's a plain brown cardboard pen that you can use plain OR decorate...and we stampers like to decorate whatever we can get our hands on, right?
Here's what they looked like when I bought them:
I stamped them first with a snowflake background (Stamp #A113) using white Staz-On ink...I inked the stamp and placed it rubber-side-up (as shown below)...then just rolled the pen over the stamp:
Next I stamped, colored and cut out my designs (stamp #934 - Mini Max and stamp #925 - Holly)...glued them to the pen...added glitter glue to the center of each snowflake and finished it off with a coat of Mod Podge and a ribbon:
Perfect little gifts for Christmas!!

You are so creative, I'm amazed. I love those pens, I have to try it out. It's so great for gifts. I love it!
This may sound like a "dumb" question but how did you cut out your stamp design without leaving any extra outlines? And how did you cut it so it looks so immaculate?
