Simple Sunday returns

Good Sunday morning to ya!

It's been awhile since I've had a Simple Sunday card to share but today I'm bringing it back baby! ;)
I've been eyeing this Cart Full of Friends stamp for a couple months now and ATS just got them in last week and I had to place an order. So when my brand new Pure Innocence stamp arrived in the mail from ATS yesterday I couldn't stop myself from inking her right up! Oh and I did tweak the image just a bit by drawing in some knee high socks on her.
As you can probably tell, the majority of my 'simple' 30 minute time allotment went into coloring the scene. Once I had that done the rest of the card flew together in under four minutes... love that! :)

All in all I think this one came out simply sweet for a simple Sunday. ;)

Smooches!

Simple Sunday Burtonesque style

Hello, hello!
Can you believe we are already wrapping up another weekend? Yea, me either... but it does mean that I've got another installment of Simple Sunday to share with you. :)

I was kinda worried about finding time to even color something up last night, simple or not. Then I remembered how I had seen Lisa create a quick and easy card using an image that she had colored up previously. Now I don't normally stamp and color before hand because I like to match my images to the colors and papers I choose for each card as I put it together. BUT I do tend to color up drawings that I'm playing around with and contemplating for possible future stamp designs to see how they would work if they make it to rubber.
So I looked through my folder of colored drawings and found little Oleander, who may become part of a 'Weird Sisters' range that I've been working on for a release closer to Halloween. Any way she made me think of the new Burtonesque challenge that started up this past week so I decided to go ahead and create a quick card for her. Now the challenge is to use stripes so right away I new where to start with the design and when I came across this old Rebecca Sower button paper I just had to tear some off and add it as well. From there I raided the neglected metals drawer and found another metal rim tag as well as a sentiment... score! And the flowers were conveniently left on my desk from a previous card. All in all I was cutting it close to my 20 minute mark by deciding to trim Oleander out but I just got this one done under the wire! :)
Oh and sorry for the not so great photo quality... it was tricky getting the lighting to not show the metal sentiment as a black shadow that totally got lost in the background. Sigh... they always look better in person don't they?

Simple Sunday part deux

Well hello there friends!
Whew, wasn't that a wild few days of new release goodness over at CA&Friends? I sure hope that you all can play along in the Rockin' Rebel contest... it's gonna be a cool one! :)

Last Sunday I shared a quick and easy card and I got to thinking afterwards that it could be fun to turn each Sunday's post into a 'Simple Sunday' theme. This works well with my schedule and how busy the weekends usually are for me. So from here on out every Sunday I'm going to share a card that takes 20 minutes or less to create... coloring included. Cute cards make me happy and if I can get them done quick I'm even happier! ;)

So here is this week's simple card... I used a 'new for me' Bugg digi from Tiddly Inks that my pal Donna totally enabled me into getting... she's notoriously good at doing that, LOL! :)
A big part of my quick cards is using images that don't require a lot of coloring and these cuties definitely fit the bill. The rest of the card comes completely from my scrap bags and what was around and on my desk. Having to use just what is within arms reach really narrows things down and speeds up the entire process for me.

I'm also entering it into the Tiddly Inks Challenge for Mother's Day cards this week. My mom loves her flowers and her gardens and of course I'm always convinced that they are the perfect homes for the little wee folk to reside in so she should get a kick out of this card. :)

Alrighty, time for me to get ready for work.
