Little Miss Muffet Challenge #60

Good morning!  Happy Thursday!  Is it possible that another whole week has rolled by?  It certainly is hard to believe, but indeed, it is Thursday and time for my weekly DT post for Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  We have a new challenge starting today and the theme is "pieced off".  We want to see some paper-piecing on your project.

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are GKD Turquoise Sea and the patterned papers are from the Echo Park Everyday Eclectic 6x6 pad.  My adorable image is Ginger from Little Miss Muffet Stamps. She is part of the Sugar 'n Spice Dolls collection.  I used a digi version and printed her twice, once on Make it Colour Blending Card and once on another patterned paper from the same pad as the background layers.  I colored her with my Copics and paper-pieced her scrubs. I added white polka dots to her headband and silver accents to her clipboard, instruments and name badge with a Letraset Metallic Marker. I cut her out with my Cameo and popped her up on a Spellbinders Lacey Circles diecut.  I used my SU Scallop Edge Punch for the horizontal panel.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  Some Ice White Pearl Pen accents, a few blooms and three gems from my stash finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:

Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to visit the Little Miss Muffet Challenge blog and check out the fabulous paper-pieced creations from the rest of the DT and our wonderful guests, Jen, Kimberly, Yoshira and Petra!  You have until Tuesday, May 14, to enter your project.  If you use a Little Miss Muffet or any Pollycraft image, you can enter as "anything goes" and enter as many times as you'd like.  If not, please follow the theme and enter only once.

Little Miss Muffet Challenge

Good morning!  Happy early Thursday!  Sorry I've been MIA, but I've had a few things going on in my world and I haven't had much time to visit my craft room.  I hope to make up for it this weekend!  Anyway, I'm here now with my Little Miss Muffet DT post.   We have a new challenge starting this week.  This time it is a sketch challenge.  What better way to kick start your mojo than with a fun sketch?

Here is the sketch:

Here is my take on it:

My card base and mats are GKD Lipstick Red and the patterned papers are from the My Mind's Eye Love Me 6x6 pad.  My adorable image is Spencer's Bucket Full of Love from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  He is available as a rubber stamp, but I used a digi version.  I printed him on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored him with my Copics.  I added lots of Red Stickles to the hearts for some extra sparkle.  I cut him out with my Cameo and popped him up on foam tape.  The "Love" sentiment is from the Silhouette store and it was cut out of red glitter paper. I finished my card with two layered paper rosettes from K & Co.

Here is a close-up of Spencer:

Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to visit the Little Miss Muffet Challenge blog and check out the gorgeous creations from the rest of the DT and our wonderful guest designer for February, Shelly!  We sure hope you will play along with us!  You have until Tuesday, February 19 to enter.  If you use either a Little Miss Muffet or any Pollycraft stamp, you can enter with "anything goes" as your theme and you can enter as many times as you'd like.  Otherwise, please follow the theme and enter only once.

Elisabeth Bell's World - December/January Challenge

Good morning!  Wishing everyone a blessed Christmas!  I hope you have had time to spend with those you love, making memories that will last well into the New Year!  I am popping in very quickly today to share my GDT card  for the December/January Elisabeth Bell's World Challenge.  The theme this month is "fluffy white snowflakes".  Elisabeth has so many gorgeous images that can fit this fun winter theme!

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are SU Baja Breeze and the patterned papers are from the My Mind's Eye Merry 6x6 pad.  My adorable Elisabeth Bell image is Winter Penelope from Sweet Peas Stamps.  She was stamped on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored with my Copics.  I added lots of sparkle with Stickles, Ice Glitter and Recollections Tinsel Glitter (on her ear muffs).  I used Polar White Flower Soft for the fluffy snow she is standing in.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  It was from Paulette's fabulous Winter Club.    I added lots of layered snowflakes punched from white glitter paper to finish my card.

Here is a close-up of Penelope:

Star of Bethlehem

Hi there!  It's me again finally!  Sorry that my posts have been very sporadic, but I am not having much luck squeezing in crafting time with everything else going on in my world right now.   However, I did manage to finish I card I had in the works, so I'm popping by to post it here.  I created another Christmas card for my stash and did it in non-traditional colors, which was the theme of quite a few challenges recently.

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are SU Not Quite Navy and the patterned papers are from the Bo Bunny Snowfall 6x6 pad.  My pretty Christmas image is from Elisabeth Bell.  It is Belles 'n Whistles Star of Bethlehem.   I stamped it with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Make it Colour Blending Card and colored it in very non-traditional Christmas colors with my Copics.  I added Gold and Mystic Green Stickles here and there for some added sparkle.  I also added White Opal Liquid Pearls to the holly berries and the pom poms on the little one's slippers.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  It is from the recent Winter Club that Paulette shared.  A triple-loop Not Quite Navy taffeta bow and a star punched from gold/bronze glitter paper finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope to find a block of time tomorrow to visit your blogs!  Sorry for not visiting you more regularly lately.

Little Miss Muffet Challenge - Textiles

Good morning!  Happy Thursday!  Hope you've had a good week!  Sorry I've been MIA again, but I have a family member who's been ill and there has not been any extra time for crafting or blogging.  Still, I couldn't miss my DT post for the new Little Miss Muffet Challenge! Yes, we have a new challenge starting this week and the theme is "textiles" - use fabric, lace, yarn, etc. on your creation.  There are so many possibilities for this one!

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are SU Blue Bayou and the patterned paper is from the K & Co. Elizabeth Brownd Christmas 12x12 pad.  I love that these papers can create a scene all on their own.  For my textiles, I cut and stitched a scrap of white felt over the snow in the scene to add dimension.  The cute winter image is Saffron from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  She was a freebie last year and I think she was my first LMM stamp!  I fell in love with all of the cute images at LMM and the rest is history!  I printed her on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.  I added some Stardust and Gun Metal Stickles to her skirt and coat buttons, White Opal Liquid Pearls to the pom poms on her scarf, and some white glitter to her hat brim and muff.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  It is part of the Enjoy The Snow set in Paulette's store here.  A few Jolee's sparkly snowflake stickers finished my card.

Here is a close-up of Saffron:

Hi, again!  I'm back, as promised, with my DT card for this week's Copic/Promarker Challenge at The Outlawz site.  The theme this week is "celebrate circles" in honor of National Search For Circles day.  We want to see lots of circles on your card or project. Just remember you must do some coloring with alcohol markers (any brand).

My scalloped circle base and mats are GKD Lipstick Red and the patterned papers (with lots of circles) are from the Basic Grey Figgy Pudding 12x12 collection.  My cute image is Christmas Angel from Saturated Canary.  You can find her in Krista's store here.  I printed her on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.  I added a bunch of Stickles to the ornaments (Red, Lime Green and Aqua) and her wings (Star Dust).  The sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC. A pretty poinsettia finished my circle easel card.

Haunting

Hi there!  Happy Wednesday!  We're halfway to the weekend - how good is that?  This week is just as crazy as last so far, but I did manage to put together a card for a few challenges.  It is absolutely my last Halloween card for this year!  It is for Kenny K. Krafty Krew #116 (frightful) and Sketch N Stash #99 (sketch).

Here is the sketch:

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are Papertrey True Black and the patterned papers are from last year's stash (K & Co.
