November Digi Release at ATS

It is Friday which means not only did we make it through another week but it is also Digi release day at All That Scraps. Today you can get three new adorable Honey's right HERE.  My card Features the newly released C.C. Designs Scarf Honey, I just love her!!  I think I say that a lot about the Honeys but seriously they are too cute.

I am really happy with the way this card turned out  not only is the image great but these papers, S.E.I. Moonrise are so pretty with the iridescent shine.  I found the ribbon at my local Hobby Lobby and it matched perfect, woo hoo!! Honey was colored with Copics and the background was done with Prisma Pencils. This is something new I am playing with maybe sometime I might even venture out and try distress inks:)  I think that is about it, I hope you enjoyed my creation.

My Partner In Crafting Crime- Marker Madness ( I hope it is OK that I used pencils on the background:)
Have a wonderful weekend preparing for the up coming holiday and I hope you find time to craft.

Cool Honey

Can you believe Thanksgiving is a week from today? Where does time go? It seems like every month goes by faster and faster.  This time of year is especially busy for us a side from the normal holidays my kids each have a birthday end of November, December and January, it makes the gift giving really hard buying for Christmas and Birthdays at the same time.  I guess we did not plan those due dates out well at all, LOL.
Stamp Stuff
* Tomorrow is release day for 3 new Honey Digis at All That Scraps.  Please stop by and see the previews HERE.
* Today is Digi Design Team Creations Day over at Claudia & Company HERE.  Don't forget, you can now get Lori Boyd's Puddle Jumpers in Digis at Die Cuts R Us

 

Cool Honey is a new digi from C.C. Designs by Christine Wooded.  I created this little mini easel card using my Nesties , Cuttlebug flowers and Sizzix swirls.  The paper is October Afternoon Day Dream and she was colored with Copics.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day and I will see you back here tomorrow.

Puddle Jumpers and Exciting News

I hope everyone had a good weekend.  Mine was good and somewhat restful.  It was the first Saturday we did not have to get up early and go to a soccer game. I love watching my son play but towards the end of the season he gets so whiny about going if you know what I mean.  I also got some Christmas shopping done. I was shocked how busy the stores are already getting, I guess people are shopping early.

On to the exciting news... several of the fabulous Lori Boyd's Puddle Jumpers are now available as Digital stamps at  Die Cuts R Us.  Why digis you ask? Well, not only do they save space but you can't beat the cost savings not to mention how great it is to be able to re-size the image to fit your needs.  Please visit the Claudia and Company Blog to see some more adorable Puddle Jumper creations.

I realized when making this card, I don't make near enough boy cards.  I have to get better about that it would be nice to have a stash for birthday parties that come up.  Today I used Sammy in digi format and you can find him and the other Puddle Jumpers HERE.

I used this weeks sketch from The Sweet Shop SSS82 which worked out really well if I do say so myself.  This week is going to be a very busy week around here so you will be seeing a few more posts from me and I hope to find some more time to visit your blogs as well..  Have a wonderful week!!

Joy Snowman

I just want to say THANK YOU!! for all those who stopped by and left such nice comments during the Claudia & Company Blog Hop.  I enjoyed reading them and working my way to your blogs as well.
Even though the hop was just a few short days ago, Claudia has already released a new digital stamp called Joy Snowman by Jane's Doodle's.  Isn't he a cutie?  I have to apologize for the horrible picture the colors are really bad. I try to take my pictures outside for best lighting but when you don't finish them until after dark, you get this.  I really need to get a light box but I always get over whelemed with what to get when I start looking.

Joy Snowman

 

I used some of my favorite new papers Bo Bunny Winter Joy  .The snowman was colored in Copics along with Prisma pencils for the background.  I used this weeks sketch from Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge #133 and for once I didn't layer but I did distress the edges and added Stickles to them.  Please visit the  Claudia & Company Blog to see some more Digi Design Team Creations from the wonderful team.

Gingerbread House

For my easel card I used the brand new Gingerbread House Digi  by Jane's Doodles.  This is is such a cute and versatile image and I had so much fun making this card with my little girl:)  I can say this is the first card I completed in the daylight hours with 2 extra sets of hands,woohoo.

 

Since it is a Gingerbread House I used a lot of glossy accents and White Sugar Coating glitter.  The papers are a mix of Stampin Up and Cosmo Cricket Jolly by Golly.  I doubled up the image to give it some depth and you can see the glitter of the snow a little better in this picture. The extra candies are from Jolee's Boutique and everything was colored in Copics.

Just a quick review of the other two digis now available at Die Cuts R Us.

Preview Skating Mia

Hello and Happy Wednesday to everyone. did everyone have a fun Halloween? Ours was great, I will try to post a picture of my 80's rocker husband... it was too funny.  My kids think Halloween is the greatest holiday ever. I am sorry I have been missing lately but I have had creative block along with being sick and lets face it, just not enough time.  The good news is at least I am able to get my DT projects done and it is a new month so I have great hopes to create:)

Jane has been creating the cutest stamps for us to work with, love them.  We are getting ready for our big Winter Release Blog Hop on Friday November 5th so be sure to join us for you chance to win some great goodies  from Die Cuts R Us.

I stamped the flourishes and added Glossy Accents to create the ice.  The paper is Cosmo Cricket Jolly by Golly Mini Deck which  I liked until I started working with it, LOL. Can you tell I had issues with this card? It was just one of those days:)
