Pamper Yourself

We girls all need a little pampering. What better way to pamper ourselves than with a bubble bath!?! I love bubble baths. The only thing I like more than bubble baths is chocolate... but that's a story for another post. :)

Here is my card:

All supplies are from my stash and I've colored the image with Copic markers. I made the rosebuds and rose. I love making my own flowers! You can read about how I did that here.  The image is a BestiesTM from Sherri Baldy called Img814.

Be sure to stop by and join us for the current challenge at Scrapbook Stamp Society Challenge Blog. There's also a challenge at BestiesTM Challenge Blog! Come over and join us for one or join us for both! 

Thanks for stopping by!

Princess Sparkle by Ema

Did you get a chance to participate in the BestiesTM of Oz contest? Boy howdy what a great prize package! The images from the collection are too cute as well! I used the Not So Wicked Wendy image for the contest and here I'm sharing Princess Sparkle with you.

I think it makes a great birthday card for a little girl! What little girl wouldn't love sparkle and glitter!?! :)

All supplies I've used are from my stash and I colored the image with Copic markers. 

I hope you'll join us for our current Scrapbook Stamp Society Challenge. Don't forget, we've also got a My BestiesTM Challenge Blog! Thanks for stopping by!

Slick Ozzie Goes...

...back to school! Can you believe it? I'm barely getting into the swing of summer and all I see around me are back to school sales and commercials! I have a heap of great and grand nephews and nieces I could make back to school cards ... IF I knew them better. :-\ I tried that last year... but I had NO idea what grade they were going into so I didn't get very far with it.

Since I don't... I made this one just to prove to myself I could make one if I had to! lol Especially for a boy... masculine cards are hard for me. I always want to add glitter, flowers and frilly ribbon. :)

This time around, I made this one:

This is Slick Ozzie by Sherri Baldy Stamps at Scrapbook Stamp Society. All supplies I've used are from my stash. I think it would make an awesome back to school card for a nephew... or maybe a friend's male relative. :)

Thanks for stopping by to see my card. 

Swirly Bling

Swirly bling... I need me some of that. I wanted to make this card as purdy as I could and I feel if I'd had some swirly bling... I could have made it look so much prettier! ;)

The image is awesome! Nothing wrong there! I used image 725 Bestie by Sherri Baldy Stamps at Scrapbook Stamp Society. This adorable image doesn't have a name! She's got to go through life with a number branded on her forehead. :( 

Every month, it gets harder and harder to pick an image to work with. Sherri whips this cute girly images so fast, I cannot keep up... and... I want all of them! :-\ Every morning, I pinch myself. I cannot believe I get to craft with these images on a regular basis. :)

Sorry, I got on here so late in the day, but with me, it's always one thing or another! I should have Ema and her dilemma's branded across my forehead. I'd give anything for an uneventful day. ;) lol But then I might complain life is boring! :) lol

So here's today's card:

I used ribbon, doilies, rhinestones, flowers, tag, card stock and printed paper from my stash. I dabbed Stickles in Frosted Lace on the flowers for some shimmer. Things are so much prettier with shimmer. :) The July 4th stamp is from a stamp set in my collection and I colored the image with Copic markers.

Don't forget to join us in our monthly challenge we've got going on. Currently, we have an Anything Goes Challenge. Don't you just love those?!? Ahhh... the freedom to let lose with creativity! Just my cup of tea. :)

We've also got our current My BestiesTM Challenge 23 - Shabby Chic going on. Come play along with one of these adorable images. You can find an image to play with here, here or here. 

Thanks for stopping by! :)

Graduations!

I don't know about the rest of you, but I had graduations all around me recently. I found the most perfect girl graduate image for just about all these graduation cards! This is an absolutely ADORABLE image from Sherri Baldy Stamps and can be found at Scrapbook Stamp Society (SSS). 

Here is the card:

The more I play with the images at SSS, the more I fall in love with them! What's NOT to like about them? Adorable, cute, sweet and did I mention adorable? Just love these Besties TM! All supplies I used were from my stash and I colored the image with Copic markers. 

Don't forget to join in on our current Yellow and White Challenge at the SSS Challenge Blog.

If you love Besties TM, you can also find a challenge specifically for these at our My Besties TM Challenge Blog!

Fashionista

Oo la la! This is the first thought that enters my head whenever I see this Sherry Baldy Stamps image. It's from Scrapbook Stamp Society and rightfully called, Fashionista!

Here is the card:

All card stock and printed paper is from my stash. I stamped the pink card stock with a Crafty Secrets clear stamp set. The flowers were a gift from a friend. I dabbed Stickles in Cotton Candy to the flowers to give them some shimmer. I also added Stickles in Star Dust on the petticoat of her dress.

Leopard

Hello my blogging peeps!! ;) lol Here I am with my latest design for Scrapbook Stamp Society. Does it make you think of the jungle... the mighty jungle... I know it's not a sleeping lion but that's the song that comes to mind when I see this Leopard image by Kim L. Pipkin Gwin. I think he makes for a great masculine card. 

These are the Copic markers I used to color the image:

Browns: E11, E13, E15, E18, E31, E33, E35

Yellow: Y19, YR23

This is the card:

Isn't he majestic? What other word could possibly accurately describe him?!? :) I think he looks ready to leap off the card! Yikes! lol ;)

This is how I put him together:

The background paper is from the Paper Studio at Hobby Lobby. The ribbon, card stock and button are from my stash. I used a Spellbinders' Lacey Square die cut to create a mat for the image. Do you think the button was too much? I couldn't make myself keep from using it... I told myself don't do it... I don't listen to myself very well. I like how it looks. :)
And with that, I will leave you with this final thought...

Ee-e-e-um-um-a-weh

Ee-e-e-um-um-a-weh

Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh

Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh

Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh

Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh

I shouldn't be the only one with that song stuck in my head after all this!! ;)

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to head over to the Scrapbook Stamp Society Challenge Blog for some fun! :) There's still plenty of time to play with FOUR month-long challenges ending on January 30th. There's a clear stamp by Sherri Baldy to be won!
