Harvest Mice

Hi HH and OCS Fans!
Wow I can't believe Fall is right around the corner and the kids have gone back to school this week! Where did the summer go? It's my turn today to share a card with you over on the High Hopes and One Crazy Stamper Blogs. The Design Team is doing a "Anything Goes" theme and I decided to use the High Hopes "Harvest Mice" stamp!
"Harvest Mice" is one of my favourite Fall stamps! I just love these cuties and the pumpkin they are leaning on! I chose papers form the Echo Park "Fall Is In the Air" 6x6 collection. I love the warm colours of this line! I added some ribbon, bow and a die cut banner as the accents on my card this time.
I also decorated the inside of my card and used the High Hopes sentiment called "If Friends Were Pumpkins".
Copics Used:
Mice: C1, C2, C3, C5/ E51, E53, E55
Pumpkin: YR12, YR14, YR16, YR18/ YG95, YG97
Outfits: y35, Y38/ R39, R56, R89/ BG72, BG75, BG78

Don't forget to head on over to the HH and OCS Blogs to see what the Design Team has used in our "Anything Goes" theme. I'm sure they will inspire you with their creations!

Monthly Challenge Time over at DDS!

Hi DDS Fans!
It's the start of the monthly Challenge over at Digi Doodle Studios! The theme this month is "Mythical/ Magical". Think fairies, unicorns and mermaids! I decided to use the adorable "Amatheia Mermaid".
My card base is a cut file from the Silhouette Design Store. I love the wave cutout and made me feel like "Amatheia" is under water. All the papers I am using are also from DDS and are part of the "Summer Breeze" Digital Paper collection. I made a few "Seaweeds" using a flower die set. I added some glossy accents to the bubble around "Amatheia", and Spectrum Noir Glitter pen on her tail. I thought it would be fun to add some Nuvo Glitter drops to the bubbles on the paper for more glitter!
I also decided to use digital sentiment from the "Mermaid" collection. I added a little starfish brad for a fun element.
More of DDS digital papers and sentiments. I love the tri-fold card base!
I decided to add a bit of Nuvo Mousse and some white paint with a stencil brush to the waves. I wanted to give them a bit of shine and make them look like the different colours of the Ocean.
Copics Used:
Skin: E00, E21, E95, R20
Hair: E51, E53, E35
Tail: BG10, BG11, BG32, BG45, BG49

Teachers Rule!

Hello Ai Fans!
Here in Ontario the Kids go back to School on Tuesday, so I thought it was the perfect time to use the Art Impressions "Teachers Rule" set! That sentiment just cracks me up! I give tremendous credit to all Teachers for the amazing job they do and the patience they have!
I thought the school themed papers from the Doodlebug "Back To School" 6x6 collection were perfect for my card design! I fussy cut my image using my Brother Cut N Scan and then popped her up with foam tape. I stamped the sentiment onto the front of her desk.
As you can see the "Teachers Rule" set has so many fun sentiments and images to create so many different card designs! What a great value this set is!
Copics Used:
Skin: Too, E21, E11, R20
Hair: C2, C3, C5
Dress: B24, B26, B28, C1, white gel pen polka dots

Happy Halloween!

Hello My Friends!
It's Tuesday so that means it's my turn to post over on the High Hopes and One Crazy Stamper Blogs! The theme this month is Fall/ Halloween, so I've chosen the oh so adorable "Witchy Poo with Kitty Frame" to make my card with.
I started by first making my background for my card base. I just got the YNS "Funky Line Panel Die" and thought it would be perfect for "Witchy Poo". I pulled out my stash of older Doodlebug Halloween paper and added strips for a fun background. Then I coloured my image to match my paper choices. A few spider webs complete with cute green spiders and a bow were my embellishments this time. I added Yellow Stickles to the moon and stars. The sentiment is also from HH and is called "Simple Halloween".
Copics Used:
Skin: E00, E11, E21, R20
Hair: YR07, YR09
Blacks: N5, N7, N9
Outfit: YG21, YG23, YG25/ V01, V04, V05, V06, V09

Crazy Cat Lady!

Hello Ai Fans!
I am more of a dog lover but I couldn't resist this stamp set from Art Impressions called "Crazy Cat Lady"! I mean seriously how funny and cute is this set?!!
The "Crazy Cat Lady" set comes with 2 images, 4 sentiments and a set of paw prints. Just think of all the cards you can make with just one set!
I think this one is my favourite! I added some strips and spots to 2 of the cats for a bit of fun. I love her slippers that I added Cotton Candy Stickles to!
The Doodlebug Kitten Smitten 6x6 collection was perfect for these Gals! A few polka dots and some enamel dots finish off both of my cards.
Copics Used:
Skin: E00, E21, E11, R20

Halloween Treat Bag!

Hello Ai Fans!
It's the second week of the "Treat Bag" Challenge and the Release of Art Impressions Halloween/Thanksgiving Clear sets! I got to play with the "Ghoul Friends" set! Aren't these Girlfriends just the cutest ever!
I coloured my image to match the papers from Doodlebugs "Boos and Brews" 6x6 collection. I added some Halloween die cuts and sentiment for some added fun elements.
I popped my fussy cut image up with some foam tape and inked the edges of my sentiment in Black Soot Distress Ink. Last year I took a card class at my local Scrapbook Store where we learned how to make this adorable Witch's Hat clip. 
The clip is easy to make using a circle with a hole in it and  2 triangles. Then you attach the mini clip to the hat with some glue dots.

SKin: E00, E21, E95, R20, R24
Hair: YG17, YG23, YG25/ N3, N5, N7

Happy Fall!

Hello HH & OCS Fans!
How cute are these little friends?!!! This is the "Wagon Full of Blessings" stamp from High Hopes. I love Fall with the cooler weather and colours of the leaves! If you are in need of a little Fall inspiration, head on over to the OCS and HH Blogs. The Design Teams have been showcasing Fall/Halloween images all month!
I used a Circle Quilt die and cut a few papers with it from the Lawn Fawn Sweater Weather 6x6 collection. I fussy cut my image and popped it up with foam tape for some added dimension. The "Happy Fall Y'all" sentiment just sums up my love of Fall.

Always Dance!

Hi Digi Doodle Fans!
It's my turn to post today over on the Digi Doodle Facebook page. I decided to use the adorable "Sylvie Ballerina" to showcase some of Dina's adorable digital stamps! This gal is just too sweet, don't you think?!!
I made my card background using my Silhouette Cameo and a cut file. I love the layered stacking hearts! I added a piece of polka dot paper behind the hearts for some added interest. Of course a Ballerina has to have some sparkle so I added Crystal Stickles on her skirt ruffles and flower centre. It's hard to see in the photo but I also added some Clear Glitter pen to her skirt and shoe ribbons.
The sentiment is also from Digi Doodle Studios and you can find it in the "Pixie Wishes" sentiment collection. 
Copics Used:
Skin: E51, E11, E23, R20
Hair: YR23, YR24, E99
Blacks: N5, N7, N9
Pinks: R81, R83, R85, R89

I hope you have a great weekend!
Happy Stamping!

Old Goat Set!

Hi Ai Fans!
I couldn't decide on which image to use from the Art Impressions "Old Goat" set, so I made cards with all 3 images LOL! These goats are just too cute and fun to colour!
These goats just remind me of my FaceBook friend Michelle's goats! She writes a weekly Blog about her "Animal Family" and I always look forward to reading about them on Saturday mornings! You can find her Blog here. I am using papers from the Echo Park Happy Birthday Boy and Lawn Fawn's Perfectly Plaid Rainbow 6x6 collections.
I think this is my favourite of the 3..... I tried to make it look like the goat was jumping through the air. The sentiment isn't from the set, I made it on my computer.
Love the expressions on their faces, especially the black and white one! It's like he's saying "What... You're how old??? Just too cute!
The "Old Goat Set" comes with 3 images and 7 sentiments! Just imagine all the different combinations you can get out of one set of stamps! Great value for sure.
Copics Used:
E31, E33, E35, E37
N1, N3, N5, N7
W1, W3, W5
