Simon Says Stamp...A Colour Combo + Penny Black...Let's Do Lunch!!

 Happy Hump day Stampin' friends! Yup! The long weekend is in sight! Whoo hoo!!!! Friday is Canada Day and so I would like to wish all my fellow Canadian Crafty and stampin' friends a very happy Canada Day long weekend! YAY!!!!! I hope you have lots of fun with friends and family and a little time to get crafty in between all the BBQin' and fireworks! Also, Sunday is my daughter, Hannah's 12th b-day and I can't believe how grown up she is now...where has the time gone!? She is almost as tall as I am now...how did that happen!? Well, I am kinda short so that isn't too difficult, smile! Well, the time sure flies by doesn't it!? 

Well, today I have a card to share for the new challenge this week at Simon Says Stamp Challenge! last week you all made such gorgeous creations with Jane's beautiful sketch! Thank you so much for joining us! This week we have a lovely colour combo....Lemon and Lavender! Isn't that a lovely combo!!!! The DT are also featuring Penny Black stamps and we would love to see your PB creations but it is not a requirement of the challenge!

We have a very generous prize this week! As always, Heidi, is offering up a fab $50.00 gift voucher to the Simon Says Stamp Superstore!!!! There are so many beautiful stamps and craft supplies in the Superstore you should really check it out!!!

 So for my card today I have used one of the sweet PB Transparent stamps from the Mimi in Paris set. I love Mimi she is absolutely adorable! I love colouring her with my Copics too. She colours up  quickly and she always looks so cute! I stamped Mimi with VersaFine Black Onyx ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder to get a good crisp stamped image. I then coloured her with my Copics, cut the image out with my Circle Nesties and inked with Mustard Seed Distress ink. Don't colour with your Copics and VersFine ink as it is not compatable until your emboss with clear embossing powder. I matted the image using my Lacey Circle Nestie. I used LilyKate BasicGrey 6x6 pad. I stamped all the papers with my Kelly Panacci Stitching Stamps with Vintage Photo Distress ink. I added some yellow crinkled seam binding with a BasicGrey button! I added lots of purple bling here and there and all the way around the image. The sentiment is from a My Favourite Things Stamps set called Meet Me at the Cafe.

 Well, thanks so much for stopping by and having a wee peek at my card! I hope you can squeeze in some crafty time and join the fun challenge that we have this week! Please stop by the Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog and check out the beautiful Lemon and Lavender creations by our wonderful DT!

Have a Stampin' Great Day!!!!

Hugs,

BasicGrey Challenges # 47 and Magnolia Down Under Challenge # 102...Happy Birthday!!!

 Me again! Yup, I am back with another card to share with you this morning! Today we have more fun challenges over at BasicGrey Challenges and at Magnolia Down Under Challenge. I thought I would combine my cards this week as the challenges went perfectly together! Over at BG Challenges we would like to see Stitching on your card or creation and at MDUC the challenge is Stitching and Swirls. Sounds like fun, eh!? 

Well, I hope you can mange to squeeze in some stampin' time and join both challenges! Just remember that at BasicGrey Challenges you must use at least one BasicGrey product on you card or creation and please list that item in your post so it easy for the DT to see what BG product you have used as there are so many gorgeous BG products available now! Over at MDUC the requirement is to use a Magnolia stamped image on your creation ( it doesn't have to be Tilda or Edwin it can be an accessory stamp)!

If you join us at BasicGrey Challenges we have a fabulous prize....a random winner will be selected to receive a $25.00 gift voucher for the Simon Says Stamp Superstore....Whoo hoo!!!!!!

For my card I used BasicGrey Life of the party 6x6 papers. I stamped my stitiching with trusty and beloved Kelly Panacci Acrylic Stitching stamps. I stamped around the edges of the papers with Vintage Photo Distress ink. The image I used is this cute Tilda with Heart Package from the Magnolia Spring 2008 release. I think I have only inked her up once before, which, is a real shame as she is just soooooo cute! It's nice to use our older Tilda stamps too, isn't it!? So, I coloured her with my Copics, of course and cut the image out with my Nesties and inked with Spun Sugar Distress ink. I cut a smaller mat from red American Crafts cardstock with my glass mat and Fiskars Finger Tip Craft knife and cut around the outer edge of the die. The swirls were cut on my Silhouette Digical Craft Cutter and I added a few red half pearls on the swirls.  I tied some crinkled seam binding around the card and tied a double bow and added a BG button and some twine. The label sentiment is from Catslife Press stamped with Ladybug Memento Ink on Kraft cardstock and the other sentiment is a Melissa Frances Rub-on.

Well, thanks so much for swingin' by again and having a wee peek at my BG Challenges and MDUC card today! I hope you can join the challenges! Please pop by the challenge blogs and have a look at all the gorgeous inspiration by the BG and MDUC DTs too!

Have a Stampin' Great Day!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge # 84...Beachy Keen!

Hey Krafty Friends! Hope you had a great week and are all set for a very Krafty weekend!!! I know I am going to be getting my Kraft on today!

Well, today I'm sharing the card I made for the new challenge that we have this week at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge blog! This week Michele is the fabulously krafty hostess and she has set a water themed challenge called "Make a Splash" ( beach, rain, anything wet or watery is good). Michele made a stunning card, as always, with the gorgeous Nerissa stamp from the Moonlight Whispers collection! If you join the challenge this week and use a KKS stamp on your card or creation you will be entered into the random draw to win a Nerissa stamp of your very own! How fabulous is that!?

For my card I used more BasicGrey Sweet Threads 6x6 papers....absolutely love this BG collection! I cut several wave borders on my Silhouette Digital Craft Cutter and inked the edges with Tumbled Glass Distress ink. I used sweet Elanor...love her to bits. She is definitely one of my all time Favorite Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps. I coloured her with my Copics and paper pieced her bathing dress and cap and coloured parts of the paper pieced dress with my Copic makers too. I added some Rose Viva Decor Pearl Pen to the centers of the flowers on the bathing cap. The flowers were cut with my MFT Flower and Leaf Trio Die-namics set, Perfect Petal Trio Die-nmaics set and Pretty Posies Die-namics set with BG Sweet Threads buttons in the centers. I added some Rain Dots water splashes here and there to continue on with the water theme. The sentient is from the Kimmie's Mermaid sentiment set and stamped on a tag cut with a QuicKutz die. 

Here is the inside of the card! I used another sentiment from Kimmie's Beachy Sentiment set and the Happy B-day sentiment is from an old MFT sentiment set and is stamped on another QuicKutz tag.

I coloured him up with my Copics and cut out the image with my Circle Nesties and left the image in the die and inked with Pumice Stone Distress ink. I then cut a circle a little bigger than the image with my circle cutter to make a mat and distressed the edges with my Tonic Tim Holtz Distressing tool. For the card I used the My Minds Eye Lime Twist Happy Go lucky 6x6 paper pad. I added a little twill tape some Prima  flowers and the sentiment is made with the My Favorite Things Say What Die-namics Stamps and Die Set. I also cut a butterfly with the MFT Butterflies Die-namics from cork material. To finish the card off I sprinkled some green gems here and there and added some Stickles to the wee butterfly!

I cut this cute cupcake treat box on my Silhouette Digital Craft Cutter and filled it with Cookies 'N' Cream Hershey Kisses...her favourite. I knew Francesca from the Moonlight Whispers collection would go perfectly with the little cupcake treat box. I coloured Francesca with my Copics and cut out the image with my Nesties and inked with Spun Sugar Distress ink.

For my card I have used the 3rd vertical row...Flowers, Brads, Sentiment! I used my new and fave BasicGrey 6x6 Sweet Threads papers and brads for this card. I am afraid you will be seeing a lot of it as I just love the colours in these papers! I finally inked up this sweet Ebony stamp that I have had in my stash forever. She is so cute and I'm so happy with how she turned out. I'm especially happy with her hair....I don't always get the hair looking right. I coloured her with my Copics and cut out around her and for the sentiment I thought it would be fun to use this phrase circle that I cut on my Silhouette Digital Craft Cutter. I cut two scalloped borders with my MFT Die-namics Simply Scallops border die and layered them. I added the BG Sweet Threads brads to dot the "i"s and the exclamation mark. I added a few prima flowers with more brads to finish it off. I inked all the edges of the papers with Amaretto Powder Puff ink....love, love, love these Powder Puff chalk inks.

For my card this week I decide to use my new BasicGrey, Sweet Threads, 6x6 papers, painted brads and a Glazed Epoxy brad...such lovely fruity and summery colours in this collection...love it....my new fave BG papers, for now anyways,smile. Then I went in search of a stamp in my stash with fruit in it. I just so happened to have this absolutely adorable Belles N' Whistles stamp called Sunshine and Apples, on my desk and so I inked it up and coloured it with my Copic markers. I cut the image out with one of my older Nesties Label 1 that I haven't used in a while but it is one of my all time favourite label Nestie. I left the image in the die and inked with Spun Sugar Distress ink and I used my glass cutting mat and Fiskars Finger tip control craft knife to cut around the outer edge of the Nestie die to get the slim mat for my image.  

I used a MFT Die-namics Scalloped Ribbon border die and also added some natural twill tape, some Prima flowers and a sprinkling of pink gems here and there. The sentiment is a Melissa Frances rub-on.

I love these guys...soooo cute, soooo funny, outstanding musicians....gotta love Irish boys too, right!? They played a good mix of songs from both the new and old album. The only thing that was disappointing for me was that they didn't play nearly long enough or play every one of their songs as I love them all. We had a great time, so good to see them for their first time in Canada and I hope they come back to Toronto again real soon!!!!

I gave her a wee hair cut though, as I do like her with a sassy short cut. I used my new BasicGrey Sweet Threads 6x6 paper pad and I paper pieced her jogging clothes and runners. I Also, used my MFT Die-namcis dies for the grass and the jumbo scalloped border. I embellished with some BG bling and a BG Sweet Threads Wheel. The sentiment comes with Carole.
