Happy Christmas - LOTV

Hi there!  Here's another card I made with LOTV's new polymer stamp release called Happy Christmas which is very versatile because it contains so many images such as candy canes, reindeer, trees, Santa, an elf, gifts, etc. 

I used Festive Berries distress ink and embossed with Shabby White Frantage.  The die is My Favorite Things Stacked Merry die which I use frequently.

Check out the LOTV website which hosts freebies and tutorials, and the stamps and digital images can be purchased at the LOTV Etsy Store.  There is also a LOTV Facebook fan page where you can view so many beautiful projects and while you are at it, go look at the LOTV Instagram page... so much to see and tons of inspiration!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great week!

Yoga - Poppy Lane Digitals

 

These yoga line drawings by Poppy Lane Digitals make me smile and they are so easy to colour.  The shading lines are already on the drawing so it's easy peasy!

Time to Read - All Dressed Up Stamps Challenge

 

It's time for the November challenge at All Dressed Up Stamps and I decided to use the Time to Read digi stamp for my project.

I've had this image before but this is the first time I've had a chance to use it.  I used to read so much, couldn't put a book down once I picked it up.  I don't know why but I hardly ever read a book anymore... I guess there's so much information on the internet but I do miss losing myself completely in a book.

Be sure to head on over to the All Dressed Up Challenge Blog where you can see all kinds of inspiration from the rest of the girls on the team. Join us for some fun and wonderful creations at the Facebook Fan Page, Facebook Challenge (there is a theme for this one) and there's also a Pinterest page to view some more gorgeousness.

Thanks for stopping by and have a good week!

Happy Christmas Tags - Lili of the Valley Stamps

I am thrilled to be able to announce I've been added to the Lili of the Valley Stamps design team.  I have used their stamps and digis for years and always loved the sweet images so I accepted faster than the speed of lightning!  

LOTV has a new release, a set of A5 polymer stamps called Happy Christmas and it contains 15 cute little Christmas images from candy canes, reindeer, trees to Santa, an elf, gifts, etc. You will have to hurry because supply is limited.  

For my first project, I decided to add to my holiday tag stash and these little images are a perfect fit!  All are coloured using Copic markers and the sentiments on all tags are a digital set called Cute Christmas Sentiments.

Check out the LOTV website which hosts freebies and tutorials, and the stamps and digital images can be purchased at the LOTV Etsy Store.  There is also a LOTV Facebook fan page where you can view so many beautiful projects and while you are at it, go look at the LOTV Instagram page... so much to see and tons of inspiration!

Snowman - emmapünktchen

 

Today's card was created using a digital image from Emmapunktchen which is called Timmeschneemann (I think it translates to Snowman).  The background is Picked Raspberry, Tumbled Glass, Wilted Violet, Broken China  and Chipped Sapphire disgtress inks.  When finished, I usedwhite embossing powder and Rubbernecker Stamps Snowflake Frame.  The sentiment and matching die is Simon Says Stamp Clean Line Christmas.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

Snow Ride - All Dressed Up Stamps Release

 

Snow Ride is one of the new release images at All Dressed Up Stamps and there's two more cuties to check out.

For the background, I used Tumbled Glass, Stormy Sky and Faded Jeans distress ink and then used white embossing powder with Taylored Expressions Twinkle Twinkle background stamp.  That stamp was such a good investment and I have used it many times.

Küsschen Nüsschen - emmapünktchen

 

Today's card uses the newly released Küsschen Nüsschen digital set at Emmapünktchen.  

I thought I should keep working at holiday cards so I used the Snowflakes 3D embossing folder, Peace. Love, Joy sentiment stamp set and matching die set all from Honey Bee stamps.  I've had these for quite some time and it was good to finally use them.  The stars are embossed using Taylored Expressions Twinkle Twinkle background stamp and silver poweder.

I found some fabulous images on Etsy by Poppy Lane Creations called Funny Yoga Quote and so contacted the owner. She does a lot of tumbler wraps so I asked her if she would consider doing this set as a line drawing so I could colour them and she was very accommodating. She will be putting the line drawings in her shop this week. There's four fabulous girls in different yoga poses and I love the expressions on their faces and that messy hair! I have two more to do up and hope to post them later this week.

Nutcrackers - Avery Elle

 I've got a quick post this morning to show a card I made with Avery Elle's Nutcracker stamp set.  I love this set and hunted high and low for it because I think it's been discontinued.  I used Copic markers to colour the images, the background is Pistachio distress ink spritzed with water and then gold paint added.
