Giving Thanks with Whimsy Stamps

Hi everyone!  I water colored this cutie with distress inks.  I wanted to try something different. I love this image and the sentiment from Whimsy Stamps called, Wyanet.  I loved the simple layout of this card and enjoyed water coloring the whole scene.

In hind site I wish I had colored the rock in a gray to blend more with the sky.  I also might have changed sides of the sentiment and image.  Lol, I love picking apart my creations.  This is how we learn.

You can find all the Wee stamps at Whimsy Stamps including this cutie!

Autumn Blessing Linen Tags - SugarPea Designs

Hi ya everyone!
Today, I'm sharing a little project I created for my Thanksgiving table.  Is it too early to be planning for Thanksgiving??  Well, maybe but it's my favorite day of the year.  I love having family around and being comfy in sweats and eating LOTs of good food.  So, I decided to spice up my dinner this year with these cute tags created using SugarPea designs clear stamp set, Indian Summer and the die cut, With Love Tag, also from SugarPea Designs.

I colored these cuties in my Copics.  You can see all the colors below. 

 I had so much fun coloring these little pumpkins.  SugarPea Designs has some of the most adorable stamps around, so you must check them out!

So Thankful - Paper Cutz Challenge

Hi Ya Everyone,
  This week at Paper Cutz Mary has asked everyone to create a Thanksgiving card using buttons and bows!  Had a lot of fun with this challenge as I love buttons and bows!  I also love love love Thanksgiving!!!  The food and the family and friends is just the perfect holiday to me!!!  All of my favorites!  I decided to color up a fun Thanksgiving dessert - Pumpkin Pie.  This adorable stamp is from the Meljen's Designs newest release Pumpkin Pie Slice.  Also, all Meljen stamps are half off right now!!!  Colored the pie with my Copics.

 I computer generated the So Thankful right on the stamp and cut it out with my scalloped oval nestable.  I then used a few different layered papers and mounted the pumpkin cut-out on top.  I took a piece of burlap stuff (LOL - not sure what to call this stuff) and put a little ribbon and a button with some hemp twined in it.

Fall colors are just beautiful!!!  I love this time year and the colors of fall are so fun to work with on my cards!  I hope you like the card and head on over to Paper Cutz and participate in this fun challenge!

Enjoy!
