Little Miss Muffet - New Release

Good morning!  Happy Thursday!  It's still early for me (yes, I'm still sleeping), but it's time for me to share this week's DT card for Little Miss Muffet Stamps!  There is a new release this week and it's all digis this time.  All the new stamps are just adorable!  They are perfect for your Thanksgiving projects and so much more!  Check out the What's New section of the LMM store to see all the new images!

Here is my card:


My card base and mats are SU Blue Bayou and the pretty fall papers are from the Basic Grey Pyrus 6x6 pad.  The cute image is Operation Treehouse Thanksgiving from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  It is a merged version of Agent Bubblegum at Thanksgiving and Bandit Boy Gavin at Thanksgiving.  I printed the image on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored it with my Copics.  I added some shiny accents to the belt and shoe buckles with my Letraset Metallic Marker pens.  I got the Thanksgiving sentiment as a freebie from Iulia's blog here.   A double-loop grosgrain bow and a button from my stash finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:

The Digi Bells GDT

Good morning!  Happy Wednesday!  Have you had a good week so far?  Mine has been a bit crazy, but I'm hoping things settle down a little for the rest of the week.  I am here this morning with a card and some super exciting news!  I was selected as one of the GDT for The Digi Bells DT blog for the next three months!  I am so thrilled and honored to be joining the amazingly-talented Digi Bells for this term!  You know I love Elisabeth Bell's images so this really is a dream come true!  Today is my first GDT post on The Digi Bells DT blog.

Here is the card I posted:


My card base and mats are GKD Dark Brown and the patterned papers are from the Prima Melody 6x6 pad.  My adorable digital image is Click!.  You can find her in the Elisabeth Bell Digital Collection here.  I printed her on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.  I added a few silver accents with my Letraset Silver Metallic Pen and lots of Stickles for some extra sparkle.  I also added some Glossy Accents to her glasses.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  A Cheery Lynn Fancy Flourish, three Wild Orchid Crafts flowers and a glittery chipboard butterfly (Make it Crafty) finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:


Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you will visit The Digi Bells DT blog daily and check out the gorgeous creations from the DT and GDT!  There are new projects using images from the Elisabeth Bell Digital Collection posted every day for your inspiration!

Oh, and I used the sketch from Stamptacular Sunday #188 for my layout.  I flipped it one turn.


I'm also entering my card in Divas by Design #60 (let's get cute).

Have a great and hope to see you soon!

Christmas is Love

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).

Here is my card:


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.

Here is a close up of the image:

Here are the challenge details:
Challenge Deadline:
You have until 10:00 PM (EDT) on November 15th to link your project to the Inlinkz at the end of the challenge post.
How to participate:
You may enter only ONE project per challenge, but if you use a Guylou's Inimitability digistamp, your project will count for two entries.  If you don't have one of Guylou's digistamps, you can check the online store where several freebies are available.  
Challenge Prizes:
A winner will be selected randomly and will win:
1. A $10.00 gift certificate from Guylou's online store

Here is my card:


My card base and mats are SU Night of Navy and the two patterned papers are from the My Mind's Eye Moments 6x6 pad. I punched the borders of the vertical panel with an EK Success Fleur de Lis Edger Punch. My fun image is Lotus Traveling from Guylou's Inimitability.  I printed her on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.  I added some Buttercup Liquid Pearls to her necklace, buttons and handbag handle.  I also added Glossy Accents to her glasses.  Of course, I had to add a feather to her hat! The image was cut out and matted with Spellbinders Petite Ovals dies. The sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC.  Three Wild Orchid Crafts roses finished my card.

Here is a close-up of Lotus:

Little Miss Muffet Challenge - Photo Inspiration

Hello!  Happy Thursday!  Sorry I haven't been around much.  Still a lot going on for me.  My thoughts are with everyone impacted by the enormous storm that hit the Northeast.  Since I come from the area, I still have many friends and family in the vicinity .  I pray that everyone is OK and the effects of the storm are not too long-lasting for any of you.  Being that it is Thursday, of course I am here with my DT post for Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  We have a new challenge starting today!  It is a photo inspiration this time, with a theme of "fireworks".

Here is one of the photos shared on the blog for inspiration:


Here is my card:


My card base and mats are SU Taken With Teal.  I used a combination of sparkly patterned papers from my stash.  Some are from Recollections and some from the DCWV Spring Glitter Matstack.   My adorable image is Celeste Amberglow Fairy Special from the recent new release from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  I printed her on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.   I added some Stickles here and there for some extra sparkle.  The sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC.  I cut the banner from glitter paper using the new Party Banner Diecut from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  I added the little stars leftover from the banner diecut to the image corners and a little heart from the diecut to her top.  I punched a few more stars from green glitter paper and popped them up.  A sparkly teal rhinestone flourish finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:
