Little Miss Muffet & Simply B Stamps - Tea Party Release

Good morning!  Happy Thursday!  The day we've all been waiting for has finally arrived!  Today is the start of a new "anything goes" challenge at Little Miss Muffet Stamps, but it's also Day 1 of the huge combined release with Simply B Stamps!  This is going to be an exciting few days, trust me!  This release is so huge and we have so much to share, it's been spread out over 3 days of fun!  There will be lots to see and do at both company blogs and both DTs, as well as some special guests, are participating.  You won't want to miss a single thing!  Of course, there will be prizes, so you'll want to check out both blogs every day for the lists of events and prizes!  You can see all the new images at the SBS New Items and the LMMS What's New sections.

Day 1 starts with a mega blog hop to kick off the joint Tea Party Release from Simply B Stamps and Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  The hop starts at the Simply B Stamps blog.  If you arrived here from there, you are in the right spot.  If not, definitely head over to the SBS blog and hop from there so you don't miss a thing!

Here is my card for the hop:


My card base and mats are SU Night of Navy and the patterned papers are from the Little Yellow Bicycle Just Because 6x6 pad.  I did a bit of machine stitching around the sketch panels.  I created a cute background scene by merging lots of images from the new Tea Party Combo set from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  I printed the merged image on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored it all with my Copics.  I added some Stickles and Glossy Accents here and there for some added sparkle and shine.  My fun main image is Betty in Wonderland from Simply B Stamps. I also printed her on MiC card and colored her with my Copics.  I added some Red Stickles to the bows on her stockings and Glossy Accents to the cherry on the cake.  I cut her out with my Cameo and popped her up over the rest of the scene.  The Tea sentiment was cut with my Cameo using a cut file from the Silhouette store.

Here is a close-up of the images:


Thanks for stopping by!  Your next stop on the hop is Mette's wonderful blog!  Don't forget to leave comments at every stop along the way, because there are two hidden prizes for today's hop and all you have to do is comment for a chance to win!  If you get lost along the way, the entire blog hop list is posted on the Simply B blog.

We hope you will also be inspired to play along with our "anything goes" challenge at the Little Miss Muffet Challenge blog.  You have until Tuesday, April 16th, to enter.  As always, if you use a LMM stamp, you can enter multiple times.  Otherwise, please enter only once.

Have a great day and enjoy the festivities!

Copic/ProMarker Challenge - The Outlawz

Hi there!  I'm back!  Hope you had a great week and you have fun plans for the weekend!  I'm thinking of all my friends and family in the Northeast and hoping you all stay safe from the impending storm.  Sounds like it will be a doozy!  I was living in Boston during the blizzard of '78 and that storm comes in second to being the worst snowstorm in the city's history.  This one might set a new record.  Yikes!  Anyway, I'm here to share my DT card for this week's Copic/ProMarker Challenge at The Outlawz site.  The theme this week is "Valentines or Love".  Very original, yes?

Here is my card:


My card base and mats are SU Primrose Petals and the patterned papers are from the Echo Park Everyday Eclectic 6x6 pad.  In the background is a heart doily from the Silhouette store cut with my Cameo.  My sweet image is Canary Love from Saturated Canary.  Krista generously shared her as a freebie awhile back, but you can find her in the store now.   I printed her on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored her with my Copics. I added Stickles here and there, some Mint Green Liquid Pearls to her earrings and buttons and Viva Decor Ice White Pearl Pen dots around the image.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  I shaded it with my Copics.  I added three diecut hearts and three Wild Orchid Crafts roses to finish my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:


Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to visit the Copic/ProMarker Challenge and see what the rest of the DT has created for your inspiration!  We hope you will play along this week!  The February challenges are being sponsored by "yours truly".  One randomly-selected participant in this month's challenges will win a $15 gift certificate to Mo's Digital Pencil.  There are also lots of monthly site-wide prizes up for grabs when you enter the challenges at The Outlawz!


I am entering my card in the following challenges:
Friday Sketch Challenge #36 (sketch)
Saturated Canary Challenge #36 (color inspiration; use at least three colors)
Crafting For All Seasons #45 ( color inspiration)
Corrosive Challenge #167 (hearts and flowers)

Sweet Friendship

Hi there!  Happy Monday!  Hope your week is off to a great start!  I'm popping by this afternoon to share a card I made for Elphine House Challenge #36 (going vintage) and a few other challenges I enjoy doing when I can.  I also get to show off the beautiful new Elisabeth Bell Stamp I won from Elphine House a couple of weeks ago when I won their challenge.

Here is a my card:


My card base and mats are SU Baja Breeze and the pretty vintage patterned paper is from the Prima Fairy Belle 6x6 pad.  My sweet image is Carrie Swan Princess from Elphine House Australia.  I stamped it with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Make it Colour Blending Card and colored it with my Copics.  I added Star Dust Stickles to her wings, Baby Blue Stickles to the water and Cotton Candy Stickles to the little flowers.  The image is framed with a Spellbinders Romantic Rectangle with pearls added around the border.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  I added lots of texture with the vintage-style lace, a tulle flower and Wild Orchid Crafts roses.  Two Make it Crafty fancy chipboard corners painted white and spritzed with Pearl Glimmer Mist finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:
