Add A Flower - New Challenge at Lia Stampz!

There's a new challenge at Lia Stampz! This fortnight, we want to see you add a flower! 
The winner of the challenge gets an awesome digi called Lily (you can get it at Whimsy Stamps here). 

This digi is called Lia Working.  I inked her up with Copics.  I used my Stampin Up floral framelits dies to make a shaped card.  I added a handmade crochet flower that I got from Etsy.  Also added a glitter brad and some taffeta ribbon.  

I thought my Etsy shop was seriously lacking in the purple department, so figured I'd try making it purple!


Can't wait to see what you guys create!

What I made with my April Paper Pumpkin

I'm loving Stampin Up's new Paper Pumpkin kits!  They get sent straight to my house in a cute little pizza box. :) Here's a few cards I made with my April Kit: 
There's enough to make 4 cards and the stamps you can reuse over and over for other projects!

Also made these cards with the left over papers: 

Oh Whale stamp set and clearlit die with some retired SU ribbon

Same retired ribbon, added the most adorable CAC cut ever, and a stamp from teeny tiny wishes stamp set with some mini basic pearls

Just added a cowboy boot cut out (from some designer paper I had in my stash). Everything else was from the pumpkin!



Also filmed a video of the unboxing/what you get/and how to put the cards together. :)
Part I

Part II (this one is only 3 minutes :))

LOVE this stuff!!! :D

New Catalog Inspiration

I was in a crafting funk and I needed to make cards to replenish one of the retail stores that carry my cards.  I looked into my brand spankin' new Stampin Up catalog for inspiration.  I CASE'd this card from page 14! Simple and awesome at the same time. :)


Used whisper white card stock, hexagon embossing folder, and retired ribbon and sentiment stamp.

I used some Robin's Nest paper (the one with the fluer de lis).  The other paper is from my scrap pile.  Also from Robin's Nest is the clock rub on (Time Flies) and the floral frame rub on (The Girls).  I also used the stamps in my Stampin Up Paper Pumpkin from April and Stampin Up ribbon.  The image is from Tiddlyinks and I colored her with Copics.

Scribbles Designs - Midway Post - Multifold Cards


We're half way through our month long challenge at Scribbles Designs!  We're doing multifold/easel cards this month!  Here's my midway project:

I used this lovely digi called Angel Diva.  She's colored with Copic markers, embellished with Dazzling Diamonds.  Popped her up on some Stampin Up oval framelits.  

Used the largest oval framelit to create the base/easel card.  Bonus points: it fits in a regular envelope!  Both sentiments are from Stampin Up.

The rules have changed a little this month: YOU NO LONGER NEED A SCRIBBLES IMAGE TO PLAY!!! :)  If you do use a Scribbles image, however, you can enter as many times as you wish.  Go here to play with us!
