It's release time at Kraftin Kimmies!

Today marks the beginning of the new releases for Kraftin Kimmie and we start out with some adorable little girls by Cheryl Alger called "Sugar and Spice". You will get 3 images and 5 sentiments in this set and if you comment on everyone's blog one lucky person will win today release!

My image is called "Girl with Cat" and I just looove her! As my friends already know I have two cats myself so this one is right up my alley! I kept the card pretty simple cause I love this image so much so some Best Creations paper, a flower, butterfly (glittered of course!) and some Viva Decor pearls and voila!  Make sure to come back tomorrow for a peak of some more new images!

Flutterby Wednesday time!

Happy Over the Hump Day my blogging friends! It is starting to cool down a bit in my neck of the woods and although I don't normally say this, I would like a little snow to bring on the Christmas spirit. Just a bit for the next few weeks and then directly into spring would be great! Anyways, over at Flutterby Wednesdays we have an anything goes challenge and... it lasts until the end of the month! Yep, you have until December 31th to play along and you can enter as often as you like! How is that for incentive to play along? Plus I heard thru the rumor mill there might even be a prize...

My image is from Sassy Cheryls and I just love her attitude! I have used some super sparkly silver paper for across each corner and also cut out some mini stars for on the background. Now I will confess I had to do my card this evening and so I am not thrilled with the sentiment. I think I will take it off and put down something else but due to time constraints, this is what you get today! Okay, you have plenty of time to play along so let's see your gorgeous creations!

Oh la la! at Tiddly Inks

Wow, I can hardly believe we are already into the second week of December! Time sure does fly doesn't it? Today's post is for Tiddly Inks and our challenge this week is "Oh la la" or  "heat things up". Christy has lots of images that would fit either one of these and I chose Heartbroke Happy to color up.

Paper is by Bo Bunny and the sentiment is computer generated. I have been downloading some free fonts lately and playing with them a bit. I tried to color her skirt to look transparent but just wasn't happy with it so I put a layer of stickles on it plus brushed some on the cut out heart for a little bling. Some glossy accents on the heart and she is ready to rock someones world! Now it is your turn to play along for a chance to win some free digis. And if you haven't seen them already Christy has some adorable new images to buy, I hope to color some up and make a special gift for my 5 year old niece for Christmas so I should be posting those soon.

My first post with Kraftin Kimmie!

Well in case you didn't know, I was invited to be a guest dt member for the month of December. You have NO IDEA how excited I was when I got Kimmie's email! And our challenge this week at Kraftin Kimmies is to use embossing, either heat embossing or dry or both if you choose!

I have used one of Kimmies Christmas release stamps called Felicity and I apologize because she does have a halo but I am not sure where exactly it is. But she is still pretty don't ya think? I have heat embossed the edges of the dp with gold powder and the paper directly behind the image is dry embossed and then rubbed with some distress ink to bring out the dimension a bit. Her dress did not want to cooperate with me and on the original image the ink ran (note to self, you do not need to saturate the image with smooch ink to get it to glimmer) so I stamped a gold design on some white paper and paper pieced it although it is really hard to see in the photo. Alright, time to get your embossing tools out and if you win you get the stamp Diana has used this week on her card which is the lovely Takara! And Kimmie's Frugal Fridays specials are available now too. On sale this week are Mr Punkinhead, Rudy the Reindeer, Billy Blyth, Speedy the Turtle, Roxy and You are a Treat!

I made a Sugar Nellie card!

Well Elaine, I told you I was gonna so here it is. This is a card I made using the sketch over at the Sugar Bowl challenge and am also going to enter it into the Ribbon Girl challenge which is to use pink and white on your card. This card is for my Grandmothers birthday and the stamp is a gift from my bestest buddy Elaine "Dawg" Livesey (personal joke).

The papers are Authentique and the lace ribbon roses are from Hobby Lobby. I have stickled up her wings and the little circles on her dress and the butterfly is again cut by my silhouette machine. I have heat embossed it with powder from Sparkle N Sprinkle. Okay, that is it for me today. But make sure you check back tomorrow for my Flutterby Wednesday post and then my Kraftin Kimmie guest post on Saturday. 

Walking in a Winter Wonderland

I hope everyone has had a great weekend, a lovely Thanksgiving and not too exhausted from fighting all those shoppers for some great deals! I DO NOT go out and fight the crowds, there is nothing I want/need that badly to make me go and do that. Anyways, our challenge this week at Paper Sundaes is to make an item with the theme "Winter Wonderland". And our sponsor is the great Michelles's Scrapbooking.

I have used Autumn Marci for my tag and some xmas papers by K and Company. There is some white and clear glitter on some of the edges to add to the snow look and some snowflakes cut out on my silhouette machine with some glitter dots and a big brad added for some texture and bling. Make sure you play along this week for your chance to win a gift certificate from Michelles and also I wanted to thank all of the girls over at Paper Sundaes for being so nice. This is my last challenge with them and they have been great to work with. Keep in touch guys!
