Animals Sweeties Class At Main St!

I love this chicken stamp. I had received a birthday card from a friend a couple of birthdays and wanted it every since.
So I got my own stamp and decided to do a class with it. It is from Penny Black and called Coop Party. It is really fun to color and make up the card. Especially when you have some really fun colorful papers to go with it.
The second card is from a new company called Waffle Flower. I had never heard of them until I was watching a tutorial with a watercoloring technique. Then a few days later I went into Main St and saw these cute little monkeys from them. They were really fun to color also. I wish I had some banana papers I could have used with them but the papers I have are discontinued so I went with these fun papers. The stamps came with matching dies which makes them even more fun and the set comes with three monkeys and lots of fun stuff to go with them. Like the banana, bow and little hat I have used here. The sentiment also comes with the set. Lots of fun stamps and dies in each set.

Sketch Saturday!

Here is my card for the challenge at sketch saturday. I have used the Uncommon line of papers from Authentique. I made the flowers with three graduating marvy punches and then added a pearl in the center. The image is from a penny black set and so is the greeting. I used Spellbinders dies for the image and sahara sand some misc coral papers.

TeamWork!

I made a card like this about 1 1/2 yrs ago at a class. I wanted to remake it with different papers and I really like how it turned out. These papers are from Graphic 45 Once in A Springtime Collection. I used some peach cardstock and some lace ribbon with it. The original card was done with distressed inks on watercolor paper, but I did this with copic markers on Neenah white cardstock.

I used some marvy flower punches and some baby pearls.

I think I like this one much better than the one we did in class. It was with dark brown and green and distressed with brown ink.

The stamp is called TeamWork and is by Penny Black.

Penny Black Kitty!

This is a Penny Black stamp set I picked up in Coos Bay last fall. I think it is soo cute. It would be purrfect for Valentines, thinking of you or birthday. Maybe even Sympathy.

I used some fun Authentique Uncommon Papers that I also picked up at the coast only at a cute little shop in Brookings I think.  I paired it with Blushing Bride cardstock and colored it with copic markers and used square nesties to cut it out. The sentiment is from a stampin up set Field Flowers.

I used the Sweet Sketch Wednesday sketch to make the card.

Also I almost forgot, the flowers and little drops at the top are from Recollections. I picked them up at Michaels. They are so glittery and pretty. The flowers came in pick and white, and the drops come in a range of colors and several sizes. The pink ribbon I have had for awhile. I think I might have picked it up at Craft Warehouse awhile back.

Happy Stamping!

Pink (Ink) Sketch Challenge!

Isnt this little guy the cutest every? This is a Penny Black stamp. I have had him forever and finally decided to ink him up. I used some rosey papers from The Girls Paperie. Combined it with Crushed Curry  stampin up cardstock. I made the flowers, used a few circle nestibilities and stampin up circle punches. The flower punches are from marvy. I colored him with copic markers and added a few stickles to the flowers.

I made this card for the very 1st challenge at Pink (Ink) . They are a brand new site, I loved their name. They have a sketch to go by. Thats the only challenge for this little guy today.

Happy Stamping!

Penny Black!

This little gal is so cute! Her cupcake is almost as big as she is!

I colored this little gal with copic markers and a few glitter gel pens. Then added some stitching for the challenge over at Penny Black Saturday Challenge.

The sketch is from Clean & Simple

Since this little gal looks like a cupcake fairy with her wings I am entering her also over at Flutterby Wednesdays.

My image is from Penny Black and the sentiment is from Lockhart Stamps.

Hope all of you will have a great Holiday weekend. The weather sounds fairly good.

Fuzzy Wuzzy Challenge!

This card looks a little washed out in this picture. Not sure why? Maybe too much green. The challenge at Fuzzy Wuzzy Challenge is a Recipe, 3 papers, 2 buttons and Blue. So I used three papers from the April Showers collection from Three bugs in a Rug with this lime green bazzill. I used two blue buttons and blue ribbon for my blue.
Also I used the sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesday.
The stamp is Penny Black. I have been wanting one of her bears every since I took the Coloring With Distressed Inks class last year. I finally picked this stamp up a few weeks ago. Also I used a Peddlers Pack sentiment. I thought the bear looks like he is setting out in a meadow scratching his chin wondering "Wheres the Picnic?". So I used Ranger Distressed Inks and watercolor paper for this card.

Coos Bay Class!

I went to Coos Bay again this weekend and took another class. This one was Watercoloring with Distressed Inks. I have been seeing alot of people using them lately and thought it would be fun to see what its all about. I am hoping that you wont be able to see my mistakes on this card.
It was a fun class. My class on friday night with the OCL girls was really fun too. Unfortunately the weather was really bad so it wasnt a fun weekend for my hubby but he was a real trooper and it was great he went down with me so I could take the classes.
If you ever get to Coos Bay, you have to stop at Memories of Time. It is the best scrapbooking/stamp store EVER!!!
Happy Stamping!
