foils, foils and more foils!

Guess what?  Crafter's Companion is having another HSN show coming up in a week!  There are some amazing new products including foils, stamps, dies and so much more.  I wanted to share a few sneak peaks  

Let's start with a little get well tea!  I dressed up this mug and put a tea bag in this recollections clear sleeve.  I added some paper and a little chipboard spoon.  On the front you can see I used the Floral Tea  Foils.  Perfect for someone in need of a pick me up!

This creation is perfect to usher in a new little bundle of joy into this world!  This is a simple little pre-made box, perfect in pink for a little girl.  I put some Jelly Beans inside and then completed it with a sweet little tag.  This tag is from the Birthday Party foil collection. 

Don't forget to join us on November 6th for the HSN show! 

There's a chill in the air

Have you noticed the distinct change in weather?  I sure have, it is like a switch was flipped.  Cold air and sooo much rain... BRRR!   Since I am feeling a bit chilly, I thought this might be a fun card to share today.

OMG she is soooo adorable!  I love this little stamp from Craftin' Desert Divas.  Even more, I love her against this back drop with the snowflakes on top.  The backdrop is cut using and Avery Elle die, the sentiment is AE as well.  That little bank of snow is from MFT and the snowflakes are from Memory Box.

THD Mid Challenge Inspiration #17

Have you joined us for this month's THD Challenge?  If not you should because the inspiration is just perfect!

Here is my card for mid challenge: 

So cute right?  I love those little Lawn Fawn kids in costumes!  I made this card by using some distress inks in the background with Ranger Mini Blending Tool and a stencil.  I also used the distress to add the purple.  The DP is from Doodlebugs.  I stamped the cutie LF kids and colored them with my Copics.  If you look close you can see where I added a little shimmer with some Wink of Stella.  The final touch is the Doodlebug Matte Sprinkles.

Head on over to the THD blog and check out the creations, then hit the shop and busy yourself these fun supplies.

Thanks!

Baby Boy!

Hello Friends!  I have a card to share with you today that is beyond sweet! Here is a snapshot of the work in progress. 

Isn't it the cutest?!  I love that Avery Elle kanga!  I colored that with my Specrtum Noir Markers. TN2, TN7, EB5.  I used my Studio Calico Baby die cut to complete the sentiment, while the hello stamp is also from Avery Elle.  The sweet background die with the oval was inked up with Pistachio distress oxide in.  The sequins add just the right amount of sparkle

I hope you enjoyed this post and thank you so much for visiting!

More Belated Birthday Wishes

I am behind on Birthday wishes again!  Sigh.  Good thing my friends are so kind that they will forgive me. :)

This one is for super sweet Lenae over at SugarGem.

This image is from Craftin' Dessert Divas and colored with the Copics.  I used some fall themed DP.  The main one is cut using my Avery Elle stitched rectangle.  I added the other layer over the top and placed them both on some Coral CS.  I had this fun chalkboard sentiment laying around, it is perfect to tell Lenae how lovely a friend she is. 

Happy Birthday Lenae!  I hope it was wonderful!  Hugs!

THD Challenge #17

Happy October!  Are you getting in the mood for something Spooktacular?!  If not yet, this should help.... 

THD is here with another fabulous challenge.  Here is my take: 

I created this with the vision of the Cat with the eye patch in mind.  So I whipped out my Paper Smooches Chubby Chums stamped and colored them.  I added some accessories, specifically the hand made eye patch for the kitty and the bloodshot eyes and ax from Neat and Tangled Lumber Jack Love for the cow.  I used an MFT Die for the sky and added some color using Distress inks and the Ranger Ink Mini  Blending Tool.  In between I added this spooky house die cut from Sugarpea Designs.  

I hope you like my funny little twist on this silly scene.   I also hope you will come and join us for the challenge.  Head on over to THD to see the inspiration and where to link up!

Color Throwdown 462

Hey there, just stopping by to join in for the Color Throwdown Challenge 462.

Here is my creation for this challenge. 

I love this DP and it has the perfect colors for this challenge.  It makes such a nice backdrop for this card.  I used stamps from Memory Box Love Grows Stamp Set.  I was able to add the perfect complimentary colors using my Copics.   A little tag makes a great backdrop for the gnomie.  

I am also entering this into the Memory Box Challenge #28- Falling for Fall.
