Star Pup - All Dressed Up Stamps release

Hi and here we are in October already and Christmas will not be far behind.  Today is the new release at All Dressed Up Stamps and there's a great assortment this month.  I was given Star Pup to create with and I'm happy with how the card turned out but was surprised at how much colouring it turned out to be.

I've been slowly accumulating a few Christmas cards and can now add this one to the growing pile.

Cat Person - All Dressed Up Challenge

 

Hi and welcome to All Dressed Up Stamps September Challenge.  What a sweet little girl this is and she reminds me so much of my daughter who loves cats.  When she was younger and we lived on the farm, you always knew where she was just by looking for the cats!  They followed her around the yard, wherever she went.  She has always had a cat or two ever since.

This image is Cat Person she's as cute as can be!  The sentiment is a very old one which I have had for years called Happy Hello by Verve Stamps.  I had a hard time choosing a sentiment for this card because the image is so large and there wasn't much room but this sentiment seemed perfect.

Franken Scmutz

I needed a birthday card for a young man who just turned 18 and I always struggle with that age group for cards.  It can't be too cutesy and juvenile but neither can it be too old so I dug out Whimsy Stamps' Franken Schmutz... the whole set is cute and fun.  It's sort of Hallowe'en but it works for other occasions too.  The card worked up very quickly because there's hardly any colouring at all.n A few die cut stars and some spatters finished it off.

Back to School Boy - All Dressed Up September 2024 Release

Can you believ/e the first weekend of August is gone already?  Time is flying by and soon we will have the crisp, colourful autumn days.  I won't be sad to see the end of summer because although I dread winter, I don't enjoy the extremely hot days we've had this season.

Today is the new release at All Dressed Up and I was give the Back to School Boy to use and I love this sweet little guy.  I actually love the whole release but this little fella is super cute.

Take a Bow - All Dressed Up Challenge

It's been very quiet my way for a couple of months but I'm back and getting back on track.  I hadn't even picked up my markers during that time and although it feels good to be colouring again, it seemed to take longer than what I remember.

I am thrilled to announce I am back on the All Dressed Up design team.  I have always loved the sweet images drawn by Wendy Burns and I'm definitely looking forward to being with the team again.

For my card, I chose to use the adorable Take a Bow.  I've always been partial to these little ballerinas and this is another sweet one.

Joanie - I Love You a Bushel and a Peck - Stamp Anniething

Today's card was made using Stamp Anniething's Joanie - I Love You a Bushel and a Peck.  The sentiment is also included with the set and there's an outline die as well but I don't have that so I cut it out.

I used the Aged Mahogany distress ink and spattered on some white, gold and red paint.

Festive Mice & Bears - Lili of the Valley

 

I just purchased the Festive Mice and Bears from Lili of the Valley and they are so cute!  I made a couple cards but they will definitely be pulled out again and used when I make my Christmas tags.  I used one of the small dies from Waffle Flower's Lacy Circles and embossed the starry sky with Taylored Expressions Twinkle Twinkle stamp (one of my most used stamps).
