Some Odd Girl January Sketch Challenge

Hi everyone! I am back with another card/challenge entry. I am in LOVE with the stamps from Some Odd Girl, even though I only own set so far (lol)! I am hoping to add some more to my collection in the very near future! Not only are they really cute, but they stamps nicely and are fun to colour. Here is a link to the January challenge so you can see what the sketch looks like (http://www.someoddgirlblog.com/2013/01/january-challenge/).

Below are some photos of the card I made for this challenge (I apologize for the poor photo quality, I am using my Iphone to take pictures until my hunny and I are able to buy a camera):




The stamp set is actually one of the Christmas ones, "HollyDay Gwen". I got it for a great deal on Black Friday. I coloured her with Copic Markers in pinks and greens to match the papers. Her hair is my favorite brown Copic combination, E37, E29 and E49. The sentiment is from the same set. I stamped it in red Brilliance ink. I think it looks more like a Valentines card, which makes me happy because that means that the stamp set is versatile, even though it technically a Christmas set.

The Sketch Challenge is open until January 29th at midnight EST. All you have to do is create a card inspired by the sketch. You must use Some Odd Girl stamps, including sentiments and accessories. Now I am off to go browse, I have my eye on the "Dancin Mae" stamp, as well as some of the new releases.

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Simon Says Stamp Challenge Entry for Totally Mad Tea Party

Hello again! I am back with a project share/challenge entry. I want to be more active in challenges this year, so I am starting with this one from Simon Says Stamp and Show blog. It is an "anything goes" challenge and the theme is Totally Mad (no rules) Tea Party. This is challenge is inspired by your take on this theme, so it seemed like fun.

I decided to go in the direction of being "tea" themed, so I created a tea bag holder/card. Here is what I made:
 This is what the holder looks like when it is closed. It ties with the ribbon so the tea bag won't fall out. I created my own sentiment using my Lawn Fawn Jessie's ABCs.

This is what the holder looks like when you open it up. One side is the pocket and the other I stamped a tea pot border and left a little space to write a message.

Above is a closer view of what each side looks like.

The challenge is open until 11:59pm (EST) on January 6, 2013. For more information and to participate, because you can win a gift voucher to the Simon Says Stamp store, visit the Simon Says Stamp and Show blog and check it out!

Hope everyone had a safe and happy New Years!

Happy Sunday!

Wow that weekend went fast! I wanted to share my latest video that is card share/entry to one of my favourite YouTube friend's 200 Subscriber Giveaway Challenge. Her name is Judy and her channel is judybakes22. Let me know what you think.

I actually got to use and colour another one of my Kraftin Kimmie stamps, which are some of my favourite stamps to use and colour. Well I better finish up the project I am working one. I am creating some covered travel baby wipe containers for a person at work who wanted to buy some from me. If I get the chance I will post some pics of those too. I just wanted to come and update my blog. Hope everyone has a great week!

Hello, long time no see and YouTube

Hello everyone. I have been busy, no excuse, but blogging was the first thing to go to the side. I am hoping to get back into the swing of things. I have been making YouTube videos and it has been really fun. I will link my channel here. I have to get a decent camera, but until then I will link my videos and try to take some photos with my iPod. Here is my latest card share:


Enjoy. If you like my videos, please like, comment and subscribe. Also feel free to ask me any questions. Thanks for sticking with me and hi to all my "I Dream of Paper" ladies! :)
