Hey there, bet you're wondering whatever happened to me, huh? Well, I've been around...just not getting crafty...until yesterday, that is! Em, from Stampingbella, invited me to be a Wonderful Wednesdays guest designer for the month of October. You know what that means, right!?! I'll be around for at least one month before I disappear again! *grin*
Tiny Townie Patricia Loves Pumpkins was stamped with Tuxedo Black onto Neenah Solar White then colored with Copic markers. How cute is she!?! Seriously! The sunflower is an older Susan's Garden die. It's a little big, but I thought it would be perfect to go with the pretty sunflower in her hair. A Clear Overlay pen from Spectrum Noir was used to put a little sparkle in the bees wings and the ruffle on her dress. I'm not going to lie...it was nice blowing the dust off my Copics! I guess that's it for me today...check back next Wednesday to see what I've been up to!

Hey there, happy Sunday! Just popping in for this week's CAS challenge. This time it's all about birthdays!
The lilac is a Susan's Garden die. Love how realistic the flowers are! The sentiment was embossed on vellum and attached to the back of the MFT frame. The ladybug was made with Viva Perlen-Pens...so fun!

Hey there, I had so much fun making the 3D card for last week's SCS CAS challenge, I decided to do another using Susan's Garden, Garden Notes Hyacinthe. This week's challenge, Make Your Words Sparkle! How fun is that!?! I just picked up these Simply Said You die and clear stamp set from Avery Elle. OMGosh...love them! I'm looking forward to using them again and again! I might have picked up some of the other sets too. *grin*
This picture is kind of blurry, but you can see all of the cool dimension from the flower, die cut sentiment and MFT frames!

Hey there, the girls at my LSS, Memories of Time, are wanting some 3D flower classes. Perfect timing for this week's CAS challenge, Preparing for Spring, celebrating the daffodil. Susan's Garden Notes dies from Ellen Craft Designs are perfect, am I right!?! *grin*
The background was stamped with Espresso Truffle ink and My Favorite Things Wood Plank background. Two Grapevine Wreath Ovals were die cut, shaped with my fingers then layered one on top of the other. Prills were used on a few of the branches for a little extra color.
The daffodil and tulips were die cut from Bazzill cardstock then shaped with Susan's Tool Kit. The sentiment is from MFT and the little, tiny ladybug was made from Viva Perler Pens.

Hey there, I'm back with the first of two cards for Splitcoaststampers Dare To Get Dirty challenges. Cheryl (aka CherylQuilts) has a really fun challenge! If you want to know specific challenge details, become a Fan Club member if you aren't already!
I started this project by die cutting then shaping that gorgeous Susan's Garden Poinsettia out of Bazzill card stock. A Neenah Solar White panel was sponged with Pistachio and Bamboo Leaves inks. The awesome Paper Smooches sentiment was cut from the sponged panel. Four more sentiments were cut from Neenah and layered beneath the sponged sentiment for a little added dimension.
Here is a side view. That flower really is amazing, isn't it!?!
