A merry little Christmas...

Hello, hello!

Tonight is Christmas Eve and I will be spending the next couple of days with family. But real quick before I take off, I finally had a play with the super cute Secret Santa set that I got from MFT last year. It has been waiting patiently to get on a card and now it has the honor of going up for the big night. I just love these little kiddos in their Christmas pajamas and Santa peeking out from behind the tree. I immediately saw the story I wanted to tell and got a little help from the Our Story set also by Birdie Brown. At first I just needed the little side table to put the milk and cookies on but how could I resist adding the sleeping pets under the tree as well? Lots of fun playing with the contrast between the dark and light rooms and all the different light sources so this makes me a very happy colorist. ;)

Merry Christmas and may we all enjoy celebrating the season. Hugs!

My happy place...

Good morning!

This post is gonna be short and sweet because I am running behind and have to fly out the door before too long! I made this for the current MFT sketch challenge and sure it's kind of a loose interpretation but I think you can still see the bones of the sketch there. What I'm very excited about is this Every Day is a Picnic set... it's been retired for some time and I was beginning to lose hope of ever getting my hands on it. Then I stumbled upon an MFT buy and sell group on Facebook and I was able to get it with my very first 'in search of' post... talk about a happy girl! Isn't she adorable? And I also used plenty of the little scene builder stamps from the set as well, like those teeny, tiny ants!  :)

Alrighty friends, I'm outta here... take it easy!

You're Super...

Good morning! 

As soon as I saw this week's sketch challenge over on the MFT blog I knew that I wanted to make a superhero card. I think it was the speech bubble in the corner that really got the comic book idea stuck in my brain. So all I had to decide was do I use the Super Boy or Super Girl stamp? In the end I went with the boy simply because I do so many girlie cards that this would be a fun change up. I kept the classic Superman color scheme for his costume and even gave this little guy some super hero blue/black hair too. I also ended up altering his face a little by drawing in eyebrows and a smirk to make him look a bit more confident than the original image. The die cut cityscape in the background and the sentiment are all part of the Zappy Birthday set from Papertrey Ink. I really liked that the font had that classic comic book look.

Ok then, time for me to fly off, LOL! 
Talk at'cha later!

Good for my heart...

Hello again!

I'm squeaking in just under the wire with a card for the current MFT sketch challenge. Usually I check out the newest sketch on Wednesday or Thursday and spend the next few days mulling over ideas but this past weekend was so busy with work that once I got time to sit down and create yesterday I was still a blank slate. So I pulled out my MFT stamp binder and flipped through it for inspiration. When I came across the sweet You Have My Heart set something just clicked. I could see these buddies sitting outside on a lovely spring day without a care in the world. So I rifled through my paper scraps and found just what I needed to make that vision a reality. The sketch was followed pretty much to a 'T' so this card really came together quickly after that. It's simple but I'm lovin' it. :)

Catch ya on the flip side!

Friends like you are rare...

Hello my friends! 

This layout may look familiar to you since I just used this sketch on Friday's card but this time I wanted to get an entry done for the MFT sketch challenge. The circle element of the sketch had me reaching for these fun Scene It dies and when I paired up the mountain and trees with the sun rays I knew just the stamp set to use. The Beast Friends set is intended to be Yetis aka Abominable Snowmen but when I first saw the set I knew they would make for super cute Sasquatch aka Big Foot and I love me some Big Foot. Have I ever told you that there was even a Big Foot 'sighting' just across the lake from me? Yep, someday I want to hike the woods and see what or who I can find. In the meantime I will just have to be happy with finding this cutie smiling on this fun card.  ;)

Ok, take it easy!

Heard you were dragon...

Hi there!

I'm on the run, again... I am SO looking forward to my next couple days off so that I can sit back and relax a bit. Until then I've got a quick card that I threw together last night for this week's MFT sketch challenge. I used my handmade cloud border and some Distress Inks to mimic the stacked horizontal elements of the sketch then found this sweet guy from the Magical Dragons set to live amongst the cloud bank. I also used the mirror image stamp so that I could flip the dragon and have him facing the direction I wanted. It's CAS, it's cute and it was quick, LOL! 

Alrighty friends, gotta jet!

Dog-gone lost...

Hey there!

Well digging out of the snow yesterday was a lot of fun... not. Lucky for me I got the call that I didn't need to come in to work so after shoveling the walk I was able to spend a little time in the crafty room. I ended up making a card for this week's MFT sketch challenge and this go round I pulled out the super cute Lucky Dogs set. Something about the sketch inspired this little scene of a pup trying to get over the wall to find his missing buddy. The brick wall was done with a stencil and the clouds in the distance are MFT dies. He looks so pitiful just hanging there like that, I sure hope this lost dog finally finds whomever he's looking for. :)

Later gators!

Share your heart...

Hey there!

I nearly missed the deadline for this week's MFT sketch challenge. To be honest I wasn't super inspired by it for the longest time because I just wasn't feeling the three wonky rectangles that made up the design. But as I was flipping through my stamps and came across the Mon Cheri set I realized that I could substitute the Eiffel Tower and this sweet girl for two of the off set rectangles and then add a sentiment strip for the block up top. Setting the scene this way makes me all kinds of happy and I'm really happy that I gave this sketch a second look. :)

Later gators!

cardstock- Papertrey Ink and Copic X-Press It

Your own fairytale...

Hi there!

So sorry for my lack of post on Friday, computer issues have been plaguing me since the middle of last week and I couldn't get connected to the internet. Blerg, it's such an inconvenience when your tech decides to act up. Anywho... things seem to be in working order for the moment so I can finally share this card that I made for the current MFT sketch challenge. This time around I grabbed the totes adorbs Magical Unicorn stamp set to be the star of the show and I was inspired by the Artistic Expression post by Jane Allen to play around with some no-line coloring. I've only tried my hand at no-line coloring a couple of times but Jane is so inspiring that she has me wanting to get more confident with the technique. The lightest Momento ink I have on hand is Desert Sand so that's what I used for stamping the images. I've still got a long ways to go but I'm pretty happy with how this little unicorn and her castle in the clouds turned out.

Ok, back to work I go. Have a great week everybody!  :)

Merry Little Christmas...

Hello!

Yesterday was a crazy day at work and I knew there wasn't going to be much time for crafting once I got home. Luckily for me, I recently stumbled across this little elf, from the fun Santa's Elves set, whom I had colored up last winter but never got on a card. Perfect, now all I had to do was check out this week's MFT sketch challenge and I would have a cute Christmas card done in a flash. So this is my 10 minute Christmas card and I couldn't be happier.  :)

Toodles!

Merry Christmas...

Good morning!

After watching the classic Rudolph Christmas special on TV the other night, I really wanted to create a 'bumble' inspired Christmas card using the Beast Friends set from MFT. I chose this cute guy because I knew I could add a star to his upraised arm and mimic the end of the show when Yukon Cornelius shows up with a newly tamed Bumble to help add toppers to the Christmas trees. Since I had the stamps all picked out I decided to check out the latest MFT sketch challenge to see if I wanted to play along. I was really inspired by the layout so it became the perfect jumping off point. I did shift the sentiment block up compared to the original sketch but it was just getting too crowded down at the bottom of the card. There is a lot of die action going on to create the background and it ended up being pretty monochromatic blue for a Christmas card but I think it does a good job of transporting us to the North Pole. 

Alrighty, rumor has it that Bumbles bounce but right now it's time for me to bounce. Laters!  :)    

Supply list:
cardstock- Bazzill, Papertrey Ink and Copic X-Press It

Candlelight...

Hey there!

I found an old jump drive that I thought I had lost a few years ago and was pleasantly surprised to find a few digis floating around on it. This old, but still super sweet, Birdie Brown digi called Midnight Pumpkin Wishes was one of them so I figured she had waited long enough to get on a card. The sentiment came from the Pebbles Trick or Treat paper pad that I chose to pair up with her and it inspired me to draw jack o'lantern faces on the pumpkins so they could glow too. For the glowing background I sponged yellow ink onto the card base then sponged some black around it. I'm really happy with how the whole scene came together to create a not-so-spooky Halloween card. :)

Laters!

Nine lives...

TGIF my friends!

It is a VERY good day in the Young household because I was one of the ten lucky ladies announced as a MFT 2016 Card Design Superstar... woot, woot! I am just over the moon excited and I literally can't stop smiling. :)
It was my Happy Girls card that got me the win and I thought today would be a fun opportunity to share a card that I made as a possible entry into the contest and instead inspired my second attempt that actually won. You can see the narrow strip idea is in place with all the kitties from the Cool Cat set peeking in. I used the cool Party Patterns set to add color to the kraft background and frame the image panel in a funky way. While I think it turned out to be a very fun and happy card it also felt a bit busy. So I took the idea and edited it down, shifting the elements and streamlined the overall design. It doesn't mean I don't like this card, because I do, but I'm also grateful for what I learned from it.

  

I also added a little something to the inside of the card, which I don't often do. But once I settled on the 'nine lives' sentiment I just couldn't leave the card with only seven kitties on it. Call it card making OCD I guess, LOL! ;)

Alrighty, have a wonderful weekend everybody!

Supply list:
cardstock- Bazzill and Copic X-Press It

Happy girls...

Good morning!

Well here I am with my third and final entry for the My Favorite Things Card Design Superstar contest. This time around I wanted to use a cute human character stamp but I couldn't decide on which one to color up. Then I got the idea to use a bunch of them all together, so I cut a narrow strip of cardstock and stamped and masked the girls from four different Birdie Brown sets with just their head and shoulders showing. The sentiment is from an old retired MFT set called Clearly Sentimental About Audrey Hepburn and I have always loved this one in particular because it is so true. The funky stitched strip die added just enough interest to my white card base and I used a few splatters from the Distressed Patterns set to act as abstract leaves for the paper flower embellishments. Who wouldn't want to be a part of this happy group of friends?  ;)

Alrighty, it's all out of my hands now... fingers crossed!

Flippin' awesome...

Hello there!

I've decided to do a special weekend posting since I didn't want to miss getting the rest of my cards entered into the MFT Card Design Superstar contest before the deadline this coming week. So very quickly, in keeping within the theme of past and current pets, I couldn't resist this adorable pooch trying to mooch himself some breakfast. I have a spoiled ten year old Yorkie and even though he has slowed down a bit over the years he is still quick to nab any morsel that happens to fall to the floor while we cook. One of my favorite ecards that I've come across on Pinterest is, "There is no such thing as a five second rule when you have a two second dog." and he is definitely my two second dog so Pup Pup became my inspiration to mix the pots and pans from the Recipe for Happiness set with this canine connoisseur from the Lucky Dog set. I even borrowed the shelf from the I Knead You set so the salt and pepper shakers had a home. All in all it's another simple card that makes me smile but I figure if it makes me smile hopefully it will make a few others smile as well. :)

Laters! 

Supply list:
cardstock
paper- Bella Blvd

Even when I'm prickly...

TGIF my crafty friends! 

I've decided to throw my hat into the ring for the My Favorite Things 2016 Card Design Superstar contest and I am super nervous! There are already so many great cards entered and the competition is definitely stiff. But the prize is pretty darn amazing and there is zero chance at winning if I chicken out and not try at all. So for this first card I've mixed the Sweet Succulents set with the new Happy Hedgehogs set. I couldn't resist pairing up the prickly cacti with this prickly little cutie. Years ago I had three African Pygmy hedgehogs as pets and they were just the sweetest and funniest little critters. Their coloring is very different from the traditional hedgehogs that most of us think of, what with their white bodies and salt and pepper quills, so that is the look that I was trying to mimic with my Copics. The background is simple watercolor 'smooshing' and I framed them all in with the cool new Single Stitch Line die-namics. Sure it's another CAS card but it makes me smile none the less. :)

Alrighty then, wish me luck!
Smooches!  

Supply list:
cardstock- Bazzill 
watercolor paper
stamps- My Favorite Things (Sweet Succulents set and Happy Hedgehogs set)

Today's the day to announce the winner of my 2,000th post goodie giveaway, how exciting! Many thanks to everyone who chimed in and said hello, newbie or long time follower it was a lot of fun to read each and every one of your comments. I keep up this blog primarily as a place to record the cards that I've made and to simply share my love for coloring and paper crafting so it has been a pleasant bonus getting to know so many special and wonderful fellow crafters during this time. ♥

Alrighty then, without further ado... the winner chosen by random.org is... 

#7   Julie D. Richards

Congratulations Julie! Please contact me at: pete_dangerathotmaildotcom with your mailing address and I will send out your package next week. :)

Really quickly, I would also like to enter this card into the current sketch challenge over at MFT. Granted, it's a very loose interpretation of the sketch layout but I swear I started off with it as my inspiration. That and I really wanted to play with some of my new stamps, LOL! Not only did I use two of the cuties from the Magical Dragons set but I also tried out the mirror image stamp to 'flip' the baby dragon so he was facing the direction that I wanted for my design. I've gotta say folks, that mirror image stamp is ingenious! I am SO happy with how well it works and it will be staying in a permanent spot right on my desk so it is always at hand when I need it. 

Have a great weekend everybody!

Here for you...

Olo!

I was checking out the MFT challenge blog yesterday and was inspired by this week's sketch challenge to whip together a quick card. It's the perfect excuse to grab another cute critter stamp set and finally get them inked up so this time around I went with the Adorable Elephants. Once I settled on this sweet pachyderm with his trunk up in the air I had to flip the sketch to make it work with the way he's facing. For the window element of the sketch I chose the peek-a-boo wonky window die because I really love the playful element that it adds to a card design. All in all, I'm super happy with how this all came together.  :)

Later gators!

Ham it up...

Hello, hello!

My collection of darling Birdie Brown stamps from MFT has grown over the last few months and yet I haven't managed to get any of these little characters onto a card in that time. Mores the pity because they really hit the trifecta of cute, quick and fun to create with. So now I'm making a point to ink them up and get some cards made with this stash of stamps. First to get inked up was the Hog Heaven set and this dancing pig totally makes me giggle. Because he is such a party animal I really wanted it to look like he is shaking his groove thang so I borrowed the little hash tag stamps from the Sugar Pea Designs Hot Diggity Dog set to make it look like his back side is in motion. Other than the sequins this is a one layer card but what it lacks in design I think it makes up for with it's cheery cheekiness. ;)

Ok folks, time for me to scoot. Talk at'cha later! 

Supply list:
cardstock- Papertrey Ink vintage cream
stamps- My Favorite Things (Hog Heaven set), Papertrey Ink (Hooray set), Sugar Pea Designs (Hot Diggity Dog set)

Santa has some favorites...

Good morning! 

Wow! Can you believe we are only five days away from Christmas? That means I only have five more Christmas cards to share this year. But as busy as I've been between work and holiday prep there hasn't been a lot of time to spend in my crafty room. So this is a quick CAS card that I made last week for another cousin of mine. The funny Santas from the MFT Jingle All the Way set totally make me smile and I really wanted to make it look like this one was jumping off the ground in Christmas excitement. The only embellishment I added to the card was this cool washi tape that looks like Santa's belt, I've been wanting to use it for months!

Ok, I've got to run. Have a great day everyone!  :)
