Hey there, I'm back with the second Memories of Time class for the gals that are coming from out of the area. This time I've used Ruby from Whimsy/Wee Stamps. Isn't she adorable?
She was stamped with Tuxedo Black onto Neenah Solar White then colored with Copic markers. The layout is Freshly Made Sketches #118...clean and simple...love it! The flower is a My Favorite Things die that was cut from Neenah, colored with Copics then shaped with a stylus and soft mat.

Hey there, with Christmas behind us, it's time to start thinking about those Valentines! This super sweet squirrel is from Whipper Snapper Designs and makes a perfect Valentine! I've got a group of ladies coming in from out of town to take a couple classes with me down at Memories of Time...this will be the first class. It's going to be so much fun!
The image was stamped with Tuxedo Black onto Neenah Solar White then colored with Copic markers. The squirrel's nose has Sakura Clear Glaze pen for a nice, subtle shine. I haven't used my glaze pen for a while, so it was fun digging it back out again! The sentiment was computer generated and also colored with Copics. The heart is a My Favorite Things die that was sponged, embossed then colored with Copics to darken the shadows...looks a little like a peanut shell, huh? *grin* A MFT button with twine completes the card.

Hey there, did you get a chance to see the inspiration photo for the first Stamping Bella challenge of the year? It was a really cool party scene so I started thinking...you can't have a party without a cake! Am I right!?! LOL!
My Aunt Janice has a birthday coming up, so I thought Uptown Girl Bianca Loves Her Big Cake would be perfect! I kept the design simple because it will be going in the mail. The image was stamped with Tuxedo Black onto Neenah Solar White then colored with Copic markers. The sentiment was computer generated then cut using a My Favorite Things die. It doesn't get much easier than this! *grin*

Hey there, happy 2014 crafty friends! Did everyone have a great Christmas and New Year's? I was sick with the flu! I'm getting better every day, but alas, the cough lingers. Ugh! I have some exciting news to share with you though...I was invited to be on the Stamping Bella Design Team! Whoop! With that said, here is my first project as a Bella Babe...
I blew the dust off the 'ol brayer to use for the background. As you can see from the dark line at the top, I could use a little practice. *snort* I'm really not sure what happened, but I'm going to say dusk is turning to night and well, it is what it is! Ha! Anyway, after the sky was inked, I decided to use Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch #200 for the layout. It's a loose interpretation of the sketch, but if you look closely, all of the elements are there...I did scoot the banner to the right hand side to make room for the Uptown Girl. The image, Opal the Optimist was stamped with Tuxedo Black, colored with Copic markers, fussy cut then popped up on foam. My Favorite Things die cut elements complete the card. I'm also entering this into Little Red Wagon's #218 New Beginnings challenge. I'm celebrating a new beginning on the Stamping Bella DT and also used a new Uptown Girl stamp. Love her!

Hey there, well I did it...I finished the card that had been sitting on my desk for a while! It fit perfectly into Alison's (newstampinaddict) VSN challenge, Have an Uh Oh! Christmas! She challenged us to use an elf, animals or children who are being mischievous. Thanks, Alison, for giving me the incentive to get this one done!
The image was stamped with Tuxedo Black onto Neenah Solar White, colored with Copic markers then fussy cut. The ornament has a few layers of Sakura Clear Glaze pen on it for a nice, subtle shine. The only thing I had to do to finish this was to color the background then layer it all...the rest was already done!
