Be mine, all mine...

Hello again! 

Now that my February Pen Pal has received her card I can go ahead and share it here. Every month Allison runs a Pen Pal swap in the Sweet November Stamps Facebook group and the theme for this month was red and pink or love. With that in mind, the cute Cupid and love bugs from the Postage Pals: My Valentine set were the perfect choice. I stamped a few of them onto an A2 postage collage die and then colored them with plenty of red and pink. The sentiment is from the SN Guy and Gal Eric and Nadine set and the Year Round Post Marks once again complete the postage theme. I know that the March Pen Pal sign ups have just gone up in the group so go check that out if you would like to join the fun!

Later gators!

Hey, hey!

It's time for the third of four Fae-bruary Fairy digis just released at Sweet November Stamps. Each Wednesday of this month, a new fairy will be added to the store and a weekly fairy themed challenge will be added in the Friends of Sweet November Stamps Facebook group. For this third week we are introducing Honeysweet and Pollen, a magical pair of friends, laughing and giggling amongst the flowers. I used stamps from Purple Onion Designs and The Greetery to turn this into a faux post card full of spring colors and the Fantasy Post Marks pulls it all together. The challenge this week is to include flowers on your fairy card and I hope you will join us in the Sweet November Fae-bruary challenges.  :)

Toodles!

Hi there! 

Here's the latest card that I colored Live over on my Adventures in Coloring with Amy Facebook page. It was a review weekend and I had this scene stamped up using one of the cute elderly couples from the Love You Forever set. This set has proven to be quite popular and is currently sold out but the restock is due to arrive either today or tomorrow. I paired these two with the older Day at the Park Background Builder set to give them the perfect date spot. They are both dressed to the nines, looking just as good to each other as they did on their very first date, thanks to all of the great color suggestions that I got from my fellow crafters. I so enjoyed watching this sweet story come together and the completed card turned out even better than I had hoped.

Thanks for stopping by! 

Supply list:
cardstock- Simon Says Stamp and Catherine Pooler
stamps- Sweet November Stamps (Love You Forever and Day at the Park Background Builder), My Favorite Things (sentiment)
ink- Memento tuxedo black and Versafine onyx black
My Favorite Things A2 stitched rectangle stax set 1
Doodlebug enamel heart
Sharpie extra fine white pen
Sakura stardust glitter pen

My heart is full...

Good morning! 

This is the last card that I made during the release weekend Lives over on my Adventures in Coloring with Amy Facebook page. That Sunday afternoon we colored one of the lovely girls from the Ruffles and Roses set and I stamped her into this quaint scene using the Autumn Cottages Background Builder set and a little bird from the Bountiful Blessings: Thanks a Bunch set. Apparently, we were feeling the cottage core vibes as the color suggestions that came in led us down a rather vintage inspired path. She looks so pretty in her dusky rose dress with a bouquet of spring flowers. The little bluebird seems to be welcoming her home with a cheery song and all is right in this idyllic fairy tale. This is definitely a new favorite of mine and I can't wait to color up the other cutie from the Ruffles and Roses set.  :)

Have a great week!
