Bear Hugs

Hi ya everyone!  It's time for a new challenge at Tiddly Inks.  The fun challenge is to add a charm of your choosing and I've had this adorable little panda charm for so long.  I made my own paper using the Dylusions ink spray, cut grass and lemon zest, with a Tiddly Inks clear stamp called Grow Old Friends.  I embossed the Tiddly clear stamp set with Simon Says Clear embossing powder.  I did all of this on the Rangers Water Color Paper.  I colored up the image Beary Sweet from Tiddly Inks with my Copics.  The sentiment and heart is from a Simon Says Stamp set called Circle Friends.
Make sure to use your stash of charms and join the fun challenge happening now at Tiddly Inks.

I'm Here for You

Hi ya everyone!  Since I've been out of crafting for awhile I've really wanted to try out new stamps and there are so many adorable images out there.  Today, I'm sharing a card with an image from A Day for Daisies called, Bitsy Bug Lily.  I colored her with Copics and Prisma colored pencils on XPress It blending card.  I used a Lawn Fawn sentiment from On the Mend.  The paper is Vintage Bliss from Simple Stories.

Happy Birthday Hubby!

The image was colored in Copics.

Girls Best Friend

Hi ya everyone!  I'm sharing a creation I made using the adorable Little Miss Muffet digital stamp called Polka Dot Pals Katie.  I colored her up in my Copics and matched it with adorable papers/journal cards from Pebbles.  I used my Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside Borders to create the bottom slope.

I used the adorable Treasured Friend clear stamp set and created a fun background using Dylusions ink sprays, clear embossing powder from Simon Says on Ranger Water Color paper.  It's a fun and messy background.  Perfect for a simple creation.

Will YOU be my Valentine?

I've really been enjoying my Card Kit Subscription from Simon Says Stamp.  I really never thought I would be a big fan of a card kit club, but I honestly find it so easy to make quick cards with this kit.  With a four month old, five year old, and eleven year old, my time in the craft room is short.  Anything to get a few cards made for my sanity however, is a life saver.  The price is reasonable and each month I get a new stamp set that is fabulous.  This is the February set.  It came with beautiful vintage papers, a gold gelato, this cute paper clip, rub-ons and a fantastic stamp set that included this sentiment and hearts.

A Lawn Fawn Valentine's Day

It's the month of LOVE and I just can't resist Lawn Fawn lately.  Their adorable images are so cute and simple for this mom of three.  I took on making my daughter's Valentine's day cards this year even with the arrival of her baby brother.  These were simple and cute.  I stamped the image from Lawn Fawn called Color My World in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and washi taped crayons to the back!  So easy and such a cute and fun idea for kindergarten aged kids.  I also included colorful Skittle packs in each goody bag.
