This post is a mish mash of stamps and ideas...I'll start with a photo mug I got at Starbucks. Instead of photos, I used stamps:
This stamp features our panda, Ping and is called "Wrapped With Love". I paper pieced the gift box with a snowflake paper...what I like about this stamp is that by changing the paper or ink color, you can use it for different occasions (not just Christmas):
I'll take you on another side trip (I told you this post was a mish mash). See the little "to, from"? That's a stamp that you can also use with my Christmas tree stamp:
ok...now back to the coffee mug!! I made a few different inserts that you can interchange for the different seasons...you just unscrew the bottom and slip your decorated paper in. It's a tight squeeze (especially if you use a couple of layered pieces like me)...but once you get it in there, it's pretty darn cute!!
Here's a better view of the 3 inserts (without the glare of the plastic):
And now for a couple of cards:
Our giveaway for today:
To enter the drawing to win these stamps, leave me a comment by midnight (Hawaii time) on Thursday, September 9...tell me what kind of stamps you'd like to see more of. I'll pick one winner at random and announce their name on Friday, September 10. Oh yeah...I'll throw in the coffee mug too!!! Good luck!!

Hi J,
All your designs are amazing. How about a larger coffee cup stamp or maybe a cute tea pot & cups set.
A cute fluffy bed with a Get well soon.
A Japanese Lantern for Obon, a larger pointy Sakura stamp.
A large cupcake or cake with a cute face.
I don't know, just thinking.
I hope you get some ideas from these.
Thanks for letting us suggest some things.
Thanks,
Fiona

What a fun idea those SB mugs are! Now you know we are all running out to get them! I love all of your stamps! How about more Hawaii related stamps?
Love your drink mug designs. Such a great gift idea! Would love to see what you have in mind for cute food images, like happy food with faces. Would you ever consider making your stamps in the unmounted style, like cling rubber or polymer? Was just thinking of it for better storage, or that you could design them as sets. Thanks for the chance to win your cute designs
Wow what a haul some lucky person will receive!! :-) I guess that I am partial to your cute animal stamps. They are definitely the "bees knees". LOL I enjoy seeing the projects you make using your creative stamps into action! Thank you! CM2
Love these creations! My favorite stamps are your new "fuzzy" animals - the bear and the puppy are the cutest!!
I love all your designs but if I had to choose a favorite, it would be the kitty designs. A kitty and a dog with Santa hats would be cute. And I also love all the wording stamps. Keep on designing!
Cute creations...I love the panda and the asian stamps.

Hi Jean,
hmm...I would like to see more teacher stamps with animals. I use stamps daily. please correct and return, parent signature, late work, etc. I know you have one with a hibiscus on it - but the kids like the ones with animals or a really cute font. :o) thanks for sharing your ideas. I never thought to use your stamps in a coffee mug. I usually use photos!
Jadee
