Hello, hello!
Today I've got a lovely little card to share that I made for the current Some Odd Girl 'anything goes' challenge. This digi is called Flower Kaylee and since those flowers that she's wearing looked like mums to me I had to go with a fall color scheme. She's all bright and bold, rich and saturated with colors just like a beautiful autumn day. I used a fancy border die along one edge of the cardstock and let that and the sprinkling of gems be the only embellishing so as not to compete with this beauty. :)
Later gators!

TGIF!
I'm wrapping up this week with an All Dressed Up beauty from LDRS creative. She's from the Girl's Night Out set but I wanted to put her in a sunny fall afternoon scene. So once I colored her up using the no-line technique I masked her off and stamped these birch trees behind. I can't even tell you how many years those trees have been sitting in my stamp stash, I know I got them in a Studio Calico kit long ago so it felt really good to finally ink them up. I have an affinity for paper white birch trees since there are two large ones in my front yard and every fall the lawn is blanketed with their golden leaves. Since it is still early in the season I only added a few stray leaves to the ground. I think it all came together for a pretty little fall card. :)
Have a wonderful weekend everybody!

Hi friends!
I've got another Greeting Farm cutie to share today, this time for the current Farm Fresh sketch challenge. This sweet girl is from the retired O&A Little Dreamer set and I did some altering to give her the fun owl backpack that the boy is originally wearing. It ended up covering most of her body but I think it still works. I colored her to match these pretty Report Card papers from October Afternoon and followed the sketch closely for a quick and easy card design. Apparently I'm still on a back to school kick with this one as well, LOL! What can I say... September hits and no matter how warm the days still get I am ready for all things fall. ;)
Ok then, time for me to scoot my boot. I'll see ya in 24!

Mornin' crafty friends!
I'm here with my first official post as a Whimsy Stamps guest designer... yeah! Because yesterday was the first day of school in my town I was inspired to ink up the darling Book Worm stamp and get her on a card. I myself have always been a huge reader, after stamping and coloring it is my next favorite past time. I love fantasy and historical fiction most of all so when I inked up Book Worm I used a light ink and did some no-line coloring, giving her a very specific book to be reading. Ten points to Gryffindor if you can guess which one it is, LOL! Then I couldn't resist adding a bookcase behind her for the stack of books to rest on and now she is the ultimate Book Worm!
Alrighty, well thanks so much for stopping by and be sure to check out the Whimsy blog for all of the exciting September release sneak peeks that are going on. :)

Hello!
It's Tuesday and you know what that means... time for my weekly 7 Kids Your Crafting Supply Store card creation. This week I felt like making something lighthearted and happy so I grabbed this fun stamp called Birthday Puppy from CC Designs. It doesn't get much better than puppy kisses and snugs I tell ya! I also had this wonderful sentiment from Impression Obsession sitting on my desk and it seemed very apropos to the delightful scene. Who says Birthday Puppy just has to be for birthday cards anyway?

Good morning
I love, love, love this Anya from the Spectacular set and with the addition of these frames she totally reminds me of the actress,Tina Fey. I actually stamped the frames in grey so that I could take a gold glitter Spica pen to them and give them a splash of color. I paired her up with some pretty papers from Simple Stories and colored her up to match. I liked that the color scheme was sweet looking and still a bit funky, which suited the sentiment I wanted to use with her as well. All in all this clean and simple card came together very quickly and I couldn't be any happier with it. :)
Well, if you've got today off enjoy the long weekend!

TGIF crafty friends!
This is an idea that I've been playing with ever since I got this Torn Paper stamp from Katzelkraft. The adorable pirate is called Hands Up and she is from Nellie Snellen's Young Rebels collection. With her pistol held high and that cocksure pose, I could just imagine her shooting a ball through that treasure map at 50 paces. I love how the torn map frames her and it was a lot of fun coloring in just the hint of sand and sea behind this sassy pirate. I get so much satisfaction from my crafting when I can create a little story with my stamps and this card totally hit that mark for me.
Alrighty then, time for work. Have a wonderful weekend everybody!
