Valentine Chocolate

Hello and Welcome to my reminder post that it's, "anything goes" for the All That Scraps Challenge.  Today I used the newly released Mashi Muffins Sweets Stamp. And colored her in with my Copic Markers.  I decided to keep her Clean and Simple and added the border around my card.  I have seen many people do this on SplitCoastStampers and so I wanted to try it out.  I used my Copic MultiLiner pen. 

I hope you can play along with us this week.  Just pick out your favorite image available at the All That Scraps Store and make a creation and upload.  I cannot wait to see what you make!

Today is my youngest son's birthday.  He is 10 today.  So out with the Christmas decor and in with the Birthday banner, the cupcakes and a whole new reason to celebrate today, lol. 

Thanks for Looking and for your kind Comments.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!!!!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!

I hope everyone is having a fabulous Christmas and has a little one to celebrate with today.  There is nothing better than kids waking you up way to early in the morning so they can OPEN PRESENTS!!!I will be blessed this year having my three children and grandson to celebrate with, and my wonderful husband and my mother.  May your Christmas goodies be plentiful and calorie free, lol.  I hope everyone gets what they want for Christmas this year.  If there is something you have been wanting and didn't find under the tree, chances are it's in the Loves Rubberstamps Store - so take that Christmas money and go spend it! lol. 

Today is not only a huge celebration for many, it's also a new week for the Loves Rubberstamps Challenge.  This week we are celebrating the New Year.  So anything that resembles celebrating the New Year is good!  And we have a very special sponsor to sweeten the deal - Saturated Canary!!!  I would like to thank Saturated Canary for providing the Design Team with a fabulous image.  I actually am not using the image provided, lol.  Yeah and I picked it out and everything, lol.  I decided I wanted to use Bubbles on my card, so I bought this image and it was so easy to download and get started.

I printed her directly onto my 6X6 designer paper and printed her again on my paper for alcohol ink.
I added a CC Design Corner Banner, and stamped that with my MFT's banner numbers.  I am not going to mention the fact that I totally spaced out what year it was and had to recut the middle pieces and start over, lol.   I also added some yummy card candi pieces - Ritz. 

I hope you enjoyed today's post and have a few minutes to go on over and check out my fellow design team members Challenge inspiration.  I cannot wait to see your New Years cards.  Do you have a New Years Resolution?  My New Years resolution is to continue on my 26 Random Acts of Kindness.  People all over the world are participating in this and I think it's the most wonderful thing that can come from such tragedy. 

I would also like to dedicate this post to my Cousin, Sonia, RIP.

Thank you for your Looking and for your kind Comments.

Christmas Elf Marci

Happy Holly-Day Friday!

Are you off this weekend?  I am too!!!  Whoo Hooo.   I have all kinds of last minute things I need to do this weekend.  No rest for the weary eh?  Ah but it's all in fun.  Fun for the little ones.  I may have to take a few minutes here and there to get my DT cards made for next week though, lol.  Seems like so much to do and soooooo little time to do it. 

This week I am sharing my Friday Inspiration Card for Loves Rubberstamps.  I have used Christmas Elf Marci from LaLa Land Crafts.  I inked her up with Memento Black and colored her with my Copics.  I used some Doodlebug Design paper and added some brads. This sketch is from the Tuesday Morning Sketches, and it's just perfect for her. 

This weeks challenge over at the Loves Rubberstamps Challenge Blog is all about Christmas.  There is still time to play.  I'd love to see what you create.  So come on over and play with us when you get a minute or two to just relax and stamp.  Also take a minute to see the new and exciting things Laura has added to the store. 

Thanks for Looking and for your kind Comments.

Simon Says Challenge - Anything Christmas

KiKi La Rue - Heart

Hello Fellow Stampers!

It's time for a new Challenge over at the All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge Board.  It's Anything Goes!!!  Whooo Hooo.  Time to sit back and relax, make whatever you want and enter it in our Challenge.  So easy!  Be sure to use an image or stamp available from the store in order to qualify for the prize though. 

Today I am using a cute new release called KiKi La Rue - Heart.  I colored her up with my copics and added some flowers as per this fabulous sketch by Cardabilities.  I let the paper by the banner for me.  I am using last years (I know, shocker!) Valentines paper by MME called Love Me. 

I cannot wait to see your uploads and what you make for the Challenge.

Thanks for Looking and for your kind Comments.

Thoughts and Prayers

Our hears are breaking today for these poor children, parents, loved ones and all others victimized by today's tragedy.  Native American's believe all children are to be treated as one of their own and while I cannot pretend to know the pain and suffering felt by these poor parents and loved ones, I can pay my respects and offer thoughts and prayers to them today.
