SWEET SUNDAY ON TUESDAY!!

**PLEASE PAGE DOWN FOR A STAMPIN' SISTERHOOD HOP!!

Happy Tuesday friends!! How are you? We are having an overcast day here today! Although it is a BIT grey? It is on the warmer side!! SO? I'll take it!! Haha!
I have been working on my craft area here lately. Trying to get it BETTER organized? If there is such a thing! In doing this, I created a drawer for images that I have colored already AND those that I have colored along, with coordinated papers already! Normally it is the latter, for if you kow me? You know that I ALWAYS, ok 95% of the time, pick my papers out FIRST before I even start coloring!! Anyhoo, I decided to pull from that drawer today! I wanted to create a little something? AND?.......play with my NEW camera!! Haha!! What a GREAT combonation, huh?
Well, when you have these things in mind, you should have a sketch to go with your creativity!! Right?? Right!! I mean......a sketch is JUST a guide, isn't it?? I perused the internet and here is what I found!! It was DEF fun to play along!! You can CLICK on the sketch to play along too!!



Of course, here is MY take on this CUTE sketch!! WITH my new camera, OUTSIDE!!


I used the SUPER, groovy HIPPIE CHIC set from MARKET STREET STAMPS!! This set is WAY cool and SO versatile!! I combined my image with the MSS sentiment set called, SIMPLE JOYS! I LOVE this set!! My papers are from DCWV and the cardstock is Cocoa from PTI! I used Spellbinders Ovals to cut out my image and a MS grass punch to do my grass. I finished this off with some of my FAVE twine, in cappuccino, from THE TWINERY!! Hope you like and hope to see you tomorrow!! Thanks SO much for stopping by and have an AWESOME night! Until next time..................ENJOY LIFE!!

HEY CHICKIE!!


Well hello there friends!! How are you this FINE evening?? TOO much?? Haha!! What can I say, I am SO excited to share tonight!! Made me a LITTLE silly!! Imagine that!! SO, I don;t know if any of you saw my FB post, about getting PAPER SMOOCHES happy mail?? Well.........that is WHY I am here!! As soon as I got that SUPER ca-ute NEW set?? I got RIGHT to it!!
I had bought something from a girlie on SCS? In the NICE little package was an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of white cardstock, folded in half, in there with it! This cardstock? Boy was it NICE!! It was.....heavy, like I could use it for a card base?? AND? That is exactly what I did!! I am LIKING it!! A LOT!! I contacted the LOVELY lady I got my package from and she told me it was in fact, Papertrey Ink white!! Really?? WOW!! Now, you must understand, I use Georgia Pacific white for my Copic coloring and have NEVER experienced this cardstock before!! I was DEF pleasantly surprised!!! Let me just tell you!!
Ok,ok.....I am getting carried away! Anyhoo.........I LOVE my new Paper Smooches set!! It is called CHUBBY CHUMS?? And.....it is TOO Darn sweet!! I picked out some DSP to go with my set and ended up with the NERDY BIRD collection from Sassafras? Ahhh.......you know me and the whole' "matchy-matchy" thing!! That is why I ALWAYS choose my DSP first, so my colors are JUST right!! Haha!! SICK......right?? After my image was colored? It was off to the internet and DAILY DARE, to find a sketch! Here is what I ended up doing!! let me know what you think!!


You all should play along too!! It was fun!! Alrighty! ALL the details are below!! LOTS to do yet for tomorrow, as I am a night owl, this is the BEST time!! Hope you will stop back tomorrow for the HOP!! Which one you ask?? Check out my BADGE on the upper right sidebar!! Have an AWESOME night and I am SO happy you joined me tonight for my blabber!!

UDDERLY AMAZING!!

HAPPY MONDAY friends!! How's it goin'? Some of you may have off today!! ENJOY!! I wanted to come by for a QUICK bit and share a MARKET STREET creation!! I did this a few days ago and shared it over at the Market Street Neighborhood? SO, I thought I should share it here, as well!! If you haven't stopped by the NEIGHBORHOOD, you must!! SO much fun and inspiration going on there!! Just CLICK the words above to take you there!! Alrighty, here is MY creation! A simple Kraft creation, using the FOR ALL IT'S WORTH & BIT OF BURLAP set, along with PUNNYLICIOUS from MY PINK STAMPER. Made with Kraft pre-cut cards and scraps from Michaels, along with SU Real Red CS. Stamped with Memento Lady Bug and Rich Cocoa ink. Finished off with Kaiserkraft pearls and altered Twinery twine. I took some Antique Linen Distress Stain and distressed my Maraschino twine! I LOVE how it came out to match!! I was anxious to use the Punnylicious sentiment, so I added it at the end. I then sprayed the whole thing with some Pearl Ex Biscotti! Hope you like!! See you tomorrow for ANOTHER!! Until then? ENJOY LIFE!!

STAMPIN' SISTERHOOD!

Hey all! How are ya?! I was hanging out over at the STAMPIN' SISTERHOOD blog tonight and shared a NEW creation!! SO, I thought I would stop by and share it HERE too!! Haha! About a week or so ago, I found a pack of PRE-made Kraft cards and envies?? It was a pack of 50 and it was SUPER cheap, on sale of course!! I just HAD to get it, OF course!! After placing it in my cart, I saw that next to it was a pack of Kraft DSP scraps! Woohoo!! SCORE!! Card making does NOT get any easier than this!! Now, the Only thing I was a BIT worried about? The weight of the cards. Would they be........NICE?? OR........would they be.............YUCKY??
Well, they are GREAT!! Not TOO thick and not TOO thin!! AWESOME!! All I had to do was add colored CS, as a mat for my Kraft DSP, a colored image and some embellies? AND? Voila!! LOVE it!! Anyway, here is ONE of those projects, using RUBBERNECKER stamps!! Hope you like!! Thanks for visiting with me and have a WONDERFUL night!! Until next time........ENJOY LIFE!!
