Hello, hello!
I'm continuing the MerMay fun with this spunky siren from the CC Designs Merkini set. I absolutely adore her yet somehow I neglected getting her onto a card last summer. I wanted to make sure I got to her nice and early this time around so she wouldn't suffer another year before fulfilling her stampy destiny. I can never get enough of the Roberto's Rascals range of stamps and while I do love the little bikini girl that comes in this set as well, there is a big part of me still wishing for an entire RR mermaid set sometime in the future. Now as I was getting ready to stamp her up it seemed to me like she needed somebody or something to interact with so I looked through the stamp sets on my desk and came across this cute turtle and little fish in the Mermaid at Heart set from Three Room Studio. They had the same cartoonish look as this little mermaid so I went ahead and added them to the scene and just like that the story started to come to life! With all her new friends in place I was able to find just the right sentiment to finish this bright and happy little card. :)
See ya in 24!

Hello crafty friends!
I hope everyone had a lovely day yesterday whether they were celebrating Christmas or not. I had a wonderful time with my family. We had so much fun exchanging gifts, playing games and enjoyed a really great meal. This lucky girl was surprised with a new Gemini Junior and I can't wait to get it all set up. Here I was all prepared to stick with my little Cuttlebug until it went kaput but now I'm feeling quite professional with my die cutting, LOL!
So today I've got my last card as a guest designer for Three Room Studio to share. This set is called Welcome Winter and it is perfect for these cold and snowy months after the big holiday. I chose to use the sledding polar bear and squirrels along with some of the trees from the set to create this scene of them racing down the hillside. I wanted them to look like they were really racing down that slope so I wiped away some of the black ink from the back of the inner tube before stamping, leaving me with white space that I could turn into flying snow. I reinforced that by dabbing on some white ink as well. That little trick along with stamping them at an angle totally gave this scene the speed and energy that I was after. :)
Thanks for stopping by and have a lovely day!

TGIF my friends!
I've got another Three Room Studio card to share today and this time around I've inked up the Let's Hygge set. To be honest, I had no idea what hygge meant but luckily Sandy included the definition in her store, Hygge (hoo'-gah) is a Danish concept, a feeling, a lifestyle of coziness and contentment. Well I don't know about you but I can certainly get on board with that. Give me a comfy chair and a warm blanket on a cold and snowy night and I'm a very happy girl. This gal definitely seems quite cozy and comfy in her easy chair, sipping on her favorite warm beverage. I grabbed this fireplace stamp from Hero Arts again to help set the scene and it sure does the trick in a quick and easy way.
Alrighty, well we just got our first big snowfall of the season overnight so I should go get myself prepared to shovel myself out before heading to work. Have a good one and stay warm out there!

Hello, hello!
I'm guesting today at Three Room Studio to help showcase the new winter release that is available now in the Three Room Studio store. There are three fantastic sets, Skate Sleep Repeat, Let's Hygge and Welcome Winter, each one perfect in its own way for these cold winter months. For my first card I just had to ink up the joyful skater from the Skate Sleep Repeat set. Once again I have Crissy Armstrong to thank for the background inspiration, this time it was her awesome snow covered mountains that I wanted to have a go at. I love how they set the scene of Christmas in a snowy mountain village for this pretty little skater. The sentiment is also from the Skate Sleep Repeat set though it is curved to fit in a wreath image. So I snipped the stamp itself between the words allowing me to bend the stamp into a straight line. Then I grabbed some festive sequins to add a bit more sparkle to the card and I was done. :)
Have a great weekend everybody!
