Merry Christmas, You sweet thing!

Today is the day! The newest releases from StampInsanity stamps are available.  This is Morgan all dressed up in her santa suit.  Isn't she a sassy little thing!?!  I used a couple of strips of some Basic Gray that Harriet gave me.  I think it's from the Eskimo Kisses line.  I pulled out my neglected bottle of Icicle Stickles and used it to bling up Morgan's fur accents.

You can see all 3 new rubber stamp releases here.  Don't forget to check out the rest of the design team--these are some talented ladies!

Thanks for dropping by and have a wonderful day!

Some PTI cards

I finally started using my PTI set Autumn Abundance.  I really love having this set and figured I better use it before Autumn is over!

Harriet, this is your birthday card that I keep forgetting to give you. LOL  You're still getting it the next time I see you!

This & That notepad

I made this for my youngest daughter's teacher for Halloween.  I know it's not ghoulish but I was in the mood to make a notepad and figured she would prefer a non-Halloween design.

This is also my entry in the Moxie Fab Plum challenge.  I used all Papertrey Products in Plum Pudding and a bit of Lavender Moon. I love the new Take Note stamp set!  (So sorry for the crummy photo.)

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

SG8

SG8 is an interesting sketch and turned out to be easy to do.  I hope you will play along on the Sketch Girl blog and link your creation.  If you upload to an online gallery, like SCS, please use keyword SG8.

I used some SU pattern paper that Harriet gave me--Thanks Harriet!  I adore this pattern paper and it's so much prettier in person.  I was in the mood to use one of my old favorite color combos of orange, blue and brown.  I threw a bit of green in there too.  I used a digital image from Wild Flower Kids and cut out the middle pumpkin and popped it up on dimensionals.

The Sketch Girl design team has some gorgeous work to show you with this sketch, check it out:

Bramble Box

This is the cutest scarecrow! His name is Bramble and he's a digi image available here. Those of you that know me know my coloring skills are passable at best--I'm hopeful I'll get better with experience.  For others like me that are a bit challenged in that area, I have a tip for you.  Copy someone else!  I went to Jen's blog, she's the artist for this image too, and pretty much copied her colors to the best of my ability.  Otherwise, I would still be sitting here trying to figure out what colors to use. LOL  Luckily, I had this awesome paper from Cosmo Cricket that went well with the Copic colors I (ok, Jen) chose.

This is a really cute box in person and I filled it with candy corn.  It was hard for me to capture it's cuteness in a photo.  Before I adhered the box together, I punch a hole in the bottom so I could run the twine through it. 

I found this box template here.  Thanks for dropping by! I'll see you in a couple of days for the Sketch Girl sketch release!

Bramble is a digi image by Wild Flower Kids and is available exclusively in the Stamp Happens Shop.

It's beginning to look alot like Christmas...

I love snowmen!  I have more snowmen in my holiday decorations than anything else and when I saw Jen's images for today's Wild Flower Kids release I knew the snowman would be the first one I would use.  The collection is called Tis' the Season and all the images are seriously cute.

I used my never ending pack of Basic Gray Figgy Pudding paper--I'm certain when I use a sheet another one grows in it's place. I went with my beloved twine instead of ribbon for that rustic look I love so much.  I used some Pink Paislee glitter around the edges and it's pretty and sparkly in person like I imagine snow would be. *sigh* I'm hoping for a really good snow this year.  My oldest daughter is 8 and she's never experienced a big snow.   

All the talented members of the Design Team have projects to show you today, so get comfy and start blog hopping.  You'll get some amazing ideas!

Twilight Bookmarks

Alyssa sent me the most beautiful bookmark awhile back and I decided to make a couple of Twilight versions using my Otherworldly Loves stamp set.  I made one for Edward and one for Jacob so I can please both teams.

Both are simple but effective.  My kids love them and my oldest daughter loves the Edward version. On Jacob's, I stamped the feet/paw prints with versamark and embossed with clear embossing powder. 

Thanks for stopping by and if you've seen my MOJO, tell her to come home.

P.S.  Alyssa is giving away some awesome blog candy.
