Walk in Sunshine

Good afternoon friends.  I just finished a card using a CC Designs' stamp and wanted to share it with you.

This adorable image is Swiss Pixie Birgitta with Popsicle ... isn't she a cutie?  Reminds me of my daughter when she was little with long, blonde pigtails lol!  She's colored with copics and colored pencils and I used Glossy Accents on her popsicle.  I added tiny pearl drops to the flowers on her flip-flops with Liquid Pearls.  The sentiment is from the AmyR Lucky Sentiments stamp set.  My papers are by Doodlebug Design and I thought they went perfectly with this stamp.

Thank you for stopping by.

Hugs, Anita

Live Laugh Love

Hello ... and happy Friday!  I have a Sugar Nellie card to share with you today.

Karen recently added some more beautiful fairies to the Fairy Glen collection and so I chose to use this beautiful Live Laugh Love fairy on my card today.  I colored my fairy with copics and colored pencils and used Glamour Dust on her wings (of course!).  My paper is Fairy Rhymes by Prima and I love the soft, muted colors in this paper.  I added a couple of pretty flourishes and some punched flowers with pearls.  The sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps.  You can find this lovely image over at Funky Kits. 

Thank you so much for stopping by.  I hope you have a warm and wonderful weekend!

Hello again friends!  We have a new Inspiration Post over on the By LORi Designs Blog today. 

I used the adorable Maxie and colored her with copics and colored pencils.  I used a bit of Star Dust Stickles on the flower on her dress.  As I was blog surfing Saturday, I found a sketch I really liked over on the Sketch Saturday Challenge Blog so I used that for my layout.  The sentiment is from the AmyR Sunny Sentiments stamp set.  I thought I'd go with a CAS card that would be perfect for a friend that may need a little cheering up :)

Good morning to all of you.  I hope you had a wonderful weekend!  I used an image from DigiStamp Boutique on my card today.  If you haven't stopped by their shop then you really need to check it out.  Lots of adorable images there!

This little cutie is from Rosie Collection 1.  I've had her colored for a few weeks now and finally found some time this weekend to make a card with her.  I used my copics and colored pencils to color her and then added some Glamour Dust to her flower.  I followed the sketch from the current challenge from the Your Next Stamp Blog.  I added a little crocheted heart with a button and a sentiment from My Favorite Things.

Fairy Glen Sneak Peeks

Hello sweet friends.  Today I have a Sugar Nellie sneak peek for you.  All this week on the Sugar Nellie Blog we've been sharing peeks of our new fairies and today I am showing you ...

Dreams & Wishes

Isn't she a cutie?  I colored her with copics and colored pencils and used Glamour Dust on her wings.  The papers are by Maja and they were part of a blog candy I won from sweet Elaine.  I love this pad and hated to cut into it but thought these papers would be a perfect fit for this fairy.  The dress actually matches the dp much better irl but looks very pinkish in this photo.  I have added some greenery with a Memory Box Die and flowers with pearls using a My Favorite Things Die.   Be sure to stop by the Sugar Nellie Blog tomorrow at 10 am for the Launch Day Blog Hop!

Little Guy

Happy Thursday to all of you!  Today I'm sharing a card I made using one of The Greeting Farm's new June releases ... Baby Anya & Ian.

Now isn't this little guy absolutely adorable?  I've colored him with copics and colored pencils and then paper-pieced his hat and bib.  I used a banner from CC Designs to spell out the word "baby" and then just added some twine and a button.  A very simple card that keeps the focus on the stamped image.  This stamp set includes Baby Anya, Baby Ian, a giraffe and two sentiments so it's perfect for those baby cards you need to make :)

A Retro-Fresh Challenge at TGF

Happy Wednesday friends!  We're starting a new Retro-Fresh Challenge today over on the Greeting Farm Blog.  For TGF's Retro-Fresh Challenge you must use a stamp that is 6 months or older, and follow the theme.  Our sweet Joni picked the June theme and she wants to see "lots of layers"!   

 

I used a stamp from the "Rain Snow Shine" collection for my card.  I don't see this stamp in the shop so I'm assuming it's been retired.  I colored this cutie with copics and colored pencils.  I used the Mini Clouds Die and then inked the edges of the cloud.  Be sure to stop by the Greeting Farm Blog to see what the rest of the team is sharing today!  There's a fabulous prize for the random winner of the challenge so I hope you find some time this month to play along.

Best Friends

Happy Friday to all of you!  I have a Sugar Nellie card to share today.

This gorgeous little fairy is Delia and she is one of the Fairy Glen images over at Funky Kits.  This is one of my favorite Sugar Nellie images.  I usually don't like to color the same image multiple times (probably why I have way too many stamps in my collection).  But that's not the case with Delia ... I adore her and find myself reaching for this stamp fairly often.  She's just perfect for so many occasions.  This time I have colored her with Distress Inks and added some Glamour Dust to her wings, antennae, and star wand.  My papers are by Graphic 45 and I love the purple/green combo.  I added some lace and a few punched flowers with pearls.  OK, that's all for today!  I hope you all have a fabulous weekend ;-)

Thanks for stopping by.

All That Scraps June Preview ... Day Three

Hello sweet friends.  I've got another new All That Scraps June stamp to share with you today.

This sweetie is one of the Sweet November Princesses by Amy Young.  There are four princesses and you're going to love them all!  I colored her with copics and colored pencils.  I used Glamour Dust on her crown and a metallic pen on her necklace.  The sentiment is from the Simply Enchanting Sentiments stamp set.  I used the CC Designs Cutter Butterfly Border Die and then added a pearl to each butterfly.

Be sure to stop by the All That Scraps Blog to see more previews by the rest of the DT.  All the new June stamps will be available in the shop Thursday, June 6, at 9 pm EST.

All That Scraps June Preview ... Day One

Happy Monday!  I hope you had a fabulous weekend ;-)  Today starts our previews of the new All That Scraps June release!

This adorable little summer image is Flipper Peep.  I love the little Flipper images that Christine has been releasing.  They're really cute and they're so quick and easy to color!  I think this image is just perfect for any summer event.  I colored Flipper Peep with copics and colored pencils and cut him out with my Nestabilities.  I used the CC Designs Cutters Bubble Die to cut the bubbles that are floating around Flipper Peep.  The sentiment is from the CC Designs Down On The Farm Saying stamp set.
