Happy Wednesday! All of you wonderful visitors certainly make my life sweeter.
This beautiful girl is called Domestic Goddess. She's one of the latest Simply Sassy releases over at Funky Kits. She's out of stock right now but I'm sure she'll be back in the shop shortly. I used my Distress Inks to color this sweetie. Wish I looked this cute when I was cooking ... bet my hubby also wishes I looked this cute when I was cooking lol! I added some flowers with tiny pearls and some twill ribbon. That twill ribbon is some I've had forever and bought it on clearance for super cheap. The sentiment I picked up for 50 cents at a garage sale held by my LSS and I knew I'd be able to use it someday. I love a bargain and I especially love when I actually use them instead of shoving them on a shelf and forgetting about them :)
Thank you so much for stopping by today.
Hugs, Anita

Celebrate
Hello friends. I'm sorry I haven't been around for a couple of days. A nasty bug came to visit me and I didn't think it was ever going to leave. I finally shoved it out the door last night and now I'm feeling much better. So I'll be around to catch up on all your blogs soon.
Please meet Cinderella, one of the latest Simply Sassy images released by Sugar Nellie. I just love this stamp as I think she's so pretty. OK, I know I say that about all of them, don't I lol? She's colored with distress inks. I've used Glamour Dust on her tiara and the bows on her shoes. I added some flowers and some glittered hearts to finish my card.
My sweet teamie Mary J is featured in our Simply Sassy Tuesday Spotlight today so be sure to stop by and check out all her gorgeous work.

A StampFairy Winter
Happy Friday friends. If you're in the States, I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday. All I can say is I ate way too many desserts :) OK, since it's Friday that means we have a new release over at StampFairy.
This adorable little girl is Molly and she's a new image from the Molly Winter 2 collection. I colored this cutie with distress inks and added some Glamour Dust on the snowman and the snow. My snowflakes have plenty of Glamour Dust and I added some pearls to their centers. I used Glamour Dust around the edge of my sentiment tag and added a little button tied with floss.
Here's the entire Molly Winter 2 collection. Please stop by the StampFairy Blog to see the amazing work by the rest of the DT. And remember there's still time to enter the StampFairy Challenge and you can find all the details here.

Whimsy Inspiration
Good morning to all of you. My blogging buddy and teammate Maria Therese has me hooked on making Christmas tags to attach to my packages this year. I have made a few with colored images but then decided to make some using Whimsy's sentiments. These were so easy to make and took very little time. I think they'll really dress up the packages this year.
I used Christmas Sentiments, Season's Greetings Sentiments, and Warm Winter Wishes Sentiments by Raindrop Echo Designs over at Whimsy Stamps.
After I printed off my digi sentiments I cut them out with Nestabilities. Using Bazzill cardstock, I cut out the matting to place behind my sentiment and then adhered both of these to a pretty doily.
I cut an even larger Nestabilities circle from Bazzill and adhered it behind the doily. This made the tag sturdier and this is where I will write the recipient's name.
I punched a whole at the top and added some ribbon so I can tie on the tag. On the front of the tag, I used a glue pen all around the edges of the sentiments and added Glamour Dust. Then I decorated them with various punches, flowers, and pearls.
Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!
