Inkin' It Up!

Baby It's Cold Outside!

Brrrr!  It's freezing here in San Antonio!  It was 84 yesterday and now it's 42 (will get into the 30's this evening!)  I wish I could just stay inside, but alas I have to go to work tomorrow - but then I'm off the weekend, which gives me plenty of time to stamp!

I have been working on Christmas Cards feverishly trying to get them finished, I still have 10 more to go....but hey, I have time, right? LOL   On this particular card I used the Snow Friends from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps, love this set!  This is one of my favorite color combos ever - I think it makes such a great Christmas Card!  

Thanks for looking and I'll be back soon with more cards!  :)

Supplies:  MFT Cardstock - Jellybean Green, Wild Cherry and Pink Lemonade     

Spectrum Noir Markers, Grosgrain Ribbon and Stickles

 

First Christmas Card

I finally made my first Christmas card of the season (well I have made a few others, but this is my favorite!) I made six of these tonight - I like to do several different styles and colors.....so there will be more to follow!

I pulled out my new My Favorite Things stamps I bought during their most recent release.....I used Pure Innocence Warm Winter and the sentiment from Happy Heart Snowman. Love, Love, Love them! This card turned out exactly how I had envisioned it - can't wait to see what my family and friends think when they receive them in the mail!

I have several new stamp sets and I can't wait to get them inky!!

I didn't get a chance to add my watermark (still working on making one - it's just not coming back to me as easily! LOL)

Well I am posting this kind of late and it's almost time for me to turn in for the night - I hope everyone is having a great week - it's almost Thanksgiving - so excited! :) See you soon!

I'm Back!!!

Hello all my stamping friends.....I'm finally back after a good 5 year hiatus!!!  In that five years, I got divorced, attempted to find myself....lost the majority of my stamping supplies (except for about 15 stamp sets, everything else was taken) basically someone I know took almost everything I owned stamping wise and left me with little of nothing - sickening, but that's a whole 'nother story!  (I'm still trying to get past that!) I moved to another city, got a great job and then found the love of my life....we got married 2 years ago.   I am finally at a place in my life that I can get back into what I love doing....my passion, Stamping!  Oh how I have missed it!!  My hubby has been so supportive and has encouraged me to get back to it!  I have been in the process of buying a lot of supplies, I am not even near where I was supply wise before, but I will get there.  I have been keeping My Favorite Things, Sweet and Sassy Stamps, Hobby Lobby and Ebay busy (there are a few other stamp companies that I will be visiting very shortly to make some purchases - Kraftin' Kimmie's stamps and Reverse Confetti to name a few!) 

I made a few christmas cards this past weekend - it was my first time to stamp in 5 years and it felt absolutely amazing!!  I will share them here and on Splitcoaststampers as soon as I upload them and then figure out how to add my watermark....I used to be a whiz at that and now I have to re-learn all over again!  NTM my watermark has to have my new last name too!

I am also in the process of re-vamping my blog - I'm gonna give it a little makeover....workin' on that as we speak.  I had to re-learn Typepad as well! ha!  I figured it out though....kinda like riding a bicycle! heehe  :)

It feels good to be back and I'm excited to share my ramblings and of course my projects....I'm also excited to see what everyone else is up to on their blogs! 

See you soon! 

Roughin' It......a Happy Camper

I have been away from my Design Team duties for way too long........I had a fantastic weekend and I even got to stamp!  It's been almost two weeks since I last got inky, that is just waaaaay too long! I'm still not completely through moving all my stuff and cleaning the house, but I'm not far from it.    The first set I decided to pull out was "Roughin' It", one of the newest releases from Storage Units, Ink and More.......I think my favorite part of this set is that cute little trailer!  Isn't it just the sweetest?!!  I cut out the trailer, the fire and the lamp and popped them up on dimensionals.  The textured cardstock is Core'dinations and it's also available at SU Ink and More. 

I'll be back with more DT samples in the next day or two.....Have a fantastic Monday!

• Stamps - Roughin' It! - Storage Units, Ink & More
• Ink - Memento Tuxedo Black
• Cardstock - French Roast and Poseidon, Core-dinations....PTI White

I'm Back and Feeling Great.............

I've been away the last few weeks trying to get my house in order and ready to sell and moving everything to where I will be staying until the house does sell.  I never knew anybody could have so much crapt......I mean seriously, it's ridiculous!  I am feeling a lot better about the whole situation.   While I have been busy with all this house mess, I haven't gotten to stamp....at all!     All my stamps, paper and ink are now all unpacked and I have a small desk that I am using (can't fit my big desk in until I get my new place).  I am looking forward to getting some stamp time in and I know all my Design Teams are missing my samples and I have been missing designing for them.   

This is a card that I made a couple of weeks ago before I had to pack everything up.  I used two different sets from Clear Dollar Stamps........the tree is from the Aloha set and the monkey and coconuts are from the Monkey Madness set........isn't he just the cutest?  I love this monkey set, it's one of my faves!

I'll be back this weekend with some more eyecandy!

Mama Kitty and Simon

I haven't posted in several days, sorry about that......I have been busy trying to work on DT stuff, getting ready for vacation and getting ready to move!   The first two are not that hard to prepare for, but the moving part - definitely hard!   Not just because I have to pack up 14 years worth of "stuff", but because it also means the ending of one life and the beginning of another.   The divorce has definitely been hard on me, but selling my house and moving from somewhere I have lived with my family for so long really gets to me.   Things won't ever be the same and I can't go back.....moving forward is the only way to go.   I have told myself that I was ready, now I don't know.  I guess I'll take it one day at a time.  :)

Now on to happier stuff..........this is a card a made a couple of weeks ago and forgot to post.  I used Mama Kitty and Simon from Clear Dollar Stamps.   The sentiment is also from Clear Dollar Stamps, it's called Formal Sentiments.  Aren't these kitties just the sweetest?    I colored them both the same color as my cat, Sammie, using my Copic Markers.   The color combo is PTI White, Wild Wasabi and Cool Caribbean - I don't remember the name of the DP, it was just some I had in my stash.    The ribbon is SU! striped grosgrain and is some of my absolute favorite - I have tons of this because I'm afraid I'm gonna run out! haha    I used lots of stickles around the edges of the cardstock and oh my, it's soooo sparkly!    

Have a fabulous Wednesday!

• Ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black

*ETA*
After browsing Amy Rysavy's blog this morning and reading one of her posts and seeing that gorgeous new tattoo she just got, I felt compelled to show you the tattoo I got on my leg about 3 weeks ago, this isn't my first.....it's my second and surely won't be my last.   It is about 3 1/2" in height.   Yes, it hurt and yes, I love it!

Heard You Caught a Bug?!!

Happy Wednesday!

I have made several get well cards, but this has definitely got to be my favorite!   I absolutely {heart} this VW Bug - how clevah!   This set is called "Sometimes You're the Bug" and is made by Clear Dollar Stamps.   It comes with 14 different images and also has different words so you can personalize the license plate.   For the sentiment on the convertible top, I used the "sister set"......."Bugs and Kisses".   Bugs and Kisses has 29 different images - it has a ton of license plate words, sentiments, etc. for only $9.99!!!  I am enabled everywhere I go these days, so I am just passing it on!!!

If you love to color like I do, then this set is for you.  It is fantastic to color!  I used my copics, then cut the bug out and popped it up on dimensionals.  I used crystal effects for the windshield and the lights.  It's hard to tell in the photo, but I also used my Spica Glitter Pen on the steering wheel and stickles along the edges of the panel.......it's soooo sparkly!

Have a fabulous rest of the day!

Fly Into Summer with Butterfly Garden!

I hope you all had a fantastic 4th of July!  I didn't get near as much stamping done as I planned on because of all the cookouts and parties I went to, but I did get this cutie patootie card made using the Butterfly Garden set from Storage Units, Ink & More.  I {heart} this set, there are so many possibilities!   

I used the Core'dinations Cardstock that Denise sent to me (Storage Units, Ink & More has it available in their webstore, along with matching inkpads and reinkers).  I have always been a diehard SU! cardstock fan, but I gotta tell you, this stuff is fantastic!  It has a smooth side and the other is textured.   I used the Aquamarines package for this card......Atoll Aqua, Aquamarine and Aquarium - awesome color combo!   I will definitely be using this cardstock a lot more, but don't worry I still LOVE my Stampin' Up! cardstock and wouldn't ever part with it!

I stamped the butterflies twice, cut one set out, colored them with my copics then popped them up on dimensionals, added some stickles for bling and also Liquid Pearls.  The butterfly panel is also up on dimensionals and I used my paper piercer all around the edges.   I also did lots of sponging and added dots with my white gel pen.   

I hope the rest of your weekend is fantastic!

• Stamps: Butterfly Garden
• Ink:  Momento Tuxedo Black
• Cardstock: Core'dinations aquarium, atoll aqua, aquamarine, Papertrey Ink White

Flopsey and his Garden......

Meet the newest member of the MFT Family....Flopsey!  This is gardener Flopsey, Isn't he cute?!!  He's available now over at My Favorite Things.   I created a garden for him so that he could gather up all his carrots and share them with his bunny friends.    This image has so many possibilities and ya know, bunnies aren't just for easter anymore!  *wink*

I created the garden scene using my copic markers and an artist sketch pen.   This was so much fun to create.........I've really started enjoying making scenes.     I used two different MFT sets here, Gardener Flopsey and Can Ya  Dig It.    Flopsey and his wheelbarrow are covered with crystal effects and the carrots are covered with stickles.......Elizebeth Neumann said it looks like fresh morning dew and I would have to agree!  :)   I cut the sentiment into four different sections, sponged with chocolate chip and placed them on dimensionals.   Some dots with a white gel pen and some pearl stickers and voila!

My Favorite Things (www.mftstamps.com) is having a New Release Cocktail Party on Wednesday, July 2 from 9-11 p.m. Eastern time. July marks MFT's 2nd birthday, and Kim's 40th, so we'll be celebrating all over the place!

Storage Units, Ink & More.......Leapfrog!

It's finally my turn to give you a little peek at one of the cutest sets that is soon to be debuting at Storage Units, Ink & More. I created this scene using the cutie patootie set LEAP FROG! When I first saw this set, I knew it was the one that I wanted to use for my peek. I used a combination of papers. The blue paper is from Core'dinations (SU, Ink & More will be carrying this paper and it's wonderful), I also used PTI White, SU! Real Red and SU! designer paper. I created the scene by masking and it was so much fun to create. I stamped the frog twice, colored everything using my Copic Markers, cut the frog out and popped him up on dimensionals. I made the lilypad using my small SU! oval punch, then cut a few slits in it and sponged with chocolate chip ink. I used lots of crystal effects and stickles........it's very sparkly IRL!

How would you like to win this "Leapfrog" set for your very own? I'm offering up one of these Leap Frog stamp sets! All you have to do is leave me a comment, that's it - supah easy. I will be picking a random winner on Sunday the 29th. Denise at Storage Units, Ink & More will mail the set directly to you. Good Luck!!

Take a break and relax.........

That is definitely easier said than done!  I tell myself that all the time.....just relax a little bit, but I never seem to be able to do it for very long.  I like to stay busy but moreover, I LOVE to sit down at my stamping space and create something.   I sat down last night to create a few cards and grabbed this MFT Presents Annie LaPoint image that had been up until now uninked.  I love this bathtub image - the bathtub reminds me of the tub my great-grandma had in her bathroom years ago (well minus the stripes and the flowers lol).   

I used my copics to color the image, then went over everything with my Pearlescent Watercolors that Kim sent me - they are FABULOUS and leave lots of sparkle on your image!!  You can't ever have too much sparkle IMO!   I stamped the flowers/leaves twice, then cut them out and popped them up on SU! dimensionals.    The bathtub stripes and flowers are covered with SU! Crystal Effects.  The color combo is SU! Basic Black, WW, Apricot Appeal and my beloved Cool Caribbean.   I added some gemstones and primas to polish off the card.   

I have tons of new stamps that I have been playing with - it makes my head swim - heehee!  I never know which ones to grab first.  There are several new releases that will be coming soon and you can catch your first peeks right here.  You are absolutely going to adore what is coming - they are all FABULOUS!!!

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Storage Units, Ink and More!!

I have some exciting news to share........I was contacted several weeks ago by Denise Wenzloff of Storage Units Ink.

STORAGE UNITS, INK & MORE BLOG

Lavender and a SFYTT......

I absolutely love my friend Jen del Muro's weekly SFYTT (sketch for you to try).......she has some really great sketches and the sketch for this week is no exception!

For this card I decided to use one of the stamps from the new line from MFT - My Favorite Things Presents - these images are by Annie LaPoint and they are just too stinkin' cute.  I normally choose my color combo and then my stamps, but for this one I chose my stamp first and the color evolved from there.    Lovely Lilac, Wild Wasabi and Basic Black look amazing together - I don't think I have used this combo before, but WOW,  I will definitely use it again.

I was asked by Lori McCrosky, the owner of Clear Dollar Stamps, if I would like to be a member of her design team.   I, of course, said I would love to.  SCS's own Laurie Wilson (tx stamper) is one of the stamp designers behind Clear Dollar Stamps - her images are fabo!!!!  take a look at her stuff here.   Her critter images are just amazing too!!!!

I have been missing in action for the last several days, I have had lots to do and several deadlines that were needing my attention.   Have a great Monday!    

Party with MFT on SCS..........

My Favorite Things is having a New Release Cocktail Party tonight from 9-11 p.m. Eastern time. LOTS of fun (and a surprise release) are planned including finding out how YOU can be the next MFT Guest Designer. Head over to the SCS MFT forum to find out all the details and I hope to see you there tonight!!  Don't miss it!

Here is another card I did using Here's the Scoop.   If you love ice cream as much as I do then you are absolutely gonna love this new set!  It has so many possibilities and the sentiments are just fabulous.   I used my friend Jen del Muro's sketch for you to try that she had posted on her blog - this sketch ROCKS - I love it!  I combined, Chocolate chip, Regal Rose, Basic Gray and Pretty In Pink.   I used two different cuttlebug embossing folders for both of the panels just to give it some contrast.  The fudge and cherry are colored with copic markers, cut out and popped up on a dimensional - I added some crystal effects to the fudge and it looks yummy!   A little pen work around the frame and some of my favorite SU! 5/8" regal rose ribbon to polish it off. 

I am hoping to get some stamping time in this evening, I still have some card orders to fill and a ton of new stamps that need some of my love.   :)   Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Congrats All Around

Good Morning!!!  Here's another sample I whipped up for the unveiling of the new My Favorite Things stamps that will debut tomorrow night!!  woohoo!   This particular card uses Congrats all Around.   Your Mega and Giga Marvy Scallop and Circle Punches work great with this set.  I have had so much fun playing with these new stamps and I know you will too!   

I have been oogling Faith Hofrichter's (markie's mom on SCS) cards lately and absolutely LOVE what she does with black cardstock.   Faith does some really amazing work!   So I decided that I was going to whip out my black cardstock (which I don't do very often) and team it up with PTI Berry Sorbet, Whisper White and Blush Blossom.   A little stamping, a little punching, a little cuttlebugging, a little pen work and voila!   This was a very simple card and layout, but I think it packs a punch.  :)

Have a wonderful rest of the day, and don't forget to check out all the Design Team MFTeasers over at Splitcoast Stampers in this gallery.

So Here's The Scoop......

Here's another MFTeaser I promised using one of the six new sets that MFT is debuting on Wednesday night.......this one is Here's the Scoop.  Oh yeah, love this one!  I love everything about this image right down to the cutie patootie flowers on the chair.   When I pulled this set out this color combo just came to me and holy moly I think it rocks - certainly celery and tempting turquoise! 

I made my own background DP - I used Polkadot Basics from Papertrey Ink and Plaid Background from All That Scraps - then colored them in using my Copic Markers.  If you love to color like I do, then you will love this set.    I added crystal effects to the flowers for some shine and dimension - I also added a gemstone brad and some stickles to the prima flowers.  Everything is up on dimensionals because I {heart} 3-D!  :)

This is one of my favorites I've done in a while, I think I'll make a few more of these to package up and give as gifts.   I have had a great weekend and got plenty of stamping done - tomorrow it's back to work! uggh!   See you tomorrow for another peek!

What's Up Cupcake?

This is one of the MFTeasers I was telling you about in yesterday's post.  This is one of the newest mini sets from My Favorite Things called What's Up Cupcake.  The stand, cupcakes, icing and sprinkles are all separate stamps so you can design the cupcakes however you want.  LOVE IT!  I stamped the icing and added sprinkles on a separate piece of cardstock and then cut them out and popped them up on dimensionals on top of the cupcakes.  I covered the icing and cupcakes with crystal effects - they look good enough to eat!  *wink*   I distressed all of the cardstock with my Tim Holtz paper distresser.  I adore this color combo, Ballet Blue, Bashful Blue, Pumpkin Pie and Wild Wasabi - the DP is SU!   

My Favorite Things (www.mftstamps.com) is having a New Release Cocktail Party on Wednesday, June 4 from 9-11 p.m. Eastern time. LOTS of fun (and a surprise release) is planned including finding out how YOU can be the next MFT Guest Designer.

There are six new releases for the month of June - yes, I said six!  So keep checking back for more of those great peeks!

Oh, we had a fabulous time last night!  We went to dinner at Applebee's then headed over to the theatre to see Sex and the City - OMG the movie was wonderful!!!  If you haven't seen it yet, you've got to go!  It was about 2 1/2 hours long and sooooo worth it!
