Santa just Called

LOL.... don't you just LOVE these funny Stella images and sentiments.... from Totally Stampalicious's Bugaboo line...

I stamped the image with Versafine Onyx black ink and clear embossed. Water coloured image with Tombow Markers and Stampin Up reinkers. Added polka dots to Stella's top with a White Gel pen. Applied Crystal Effects to her glasses and the telephone. Applied white liquid applique to both hats. The hat on the sentiment is from a package of mini stamps I purchased at Costco a few years ago. Used Diamond Stickles on the Christmas tree ornaments and the green dots on the DP. Punched out the sentiment with Stampin Up's label punch. All edges were stitched with red thread.

I used sketch #SC302 from Splitcoast Stampers.

Happy stamping and creating,

Teapot challenges

Happy Wednesday everyone.... Here are two cards I made for Mothermark's (Cindy) Teapot Tuesday challenges...
The first one "Frankenstein" will be mailed off to Jacob, a 5 year old who is going through chemo treatments... He will not be able to celebrate Halloween this year - so we are bringing it to him.
Frankenstein and the bat are stickers... I thought the dp was a perfect match for him... Stitched edges. Punched out the yellow moon, sponged edges with more mustard and placed the bat over top.


The second card has been mailed off to a young man (Kyler) who is serving in Afghanistan - he is the son of Lisa Lara.
For the embossed bg, I rubbed Barely Banana and Pumpkin pie on the embossing folder and placed a pieced of white card stock in folder and ran it through the cuttlebug... Stamped the House Mouse image on Kraft card stock and coloured with prisma colour pencil crayons.

Totally Stampalicious challenge --- SNOWFLAKES

HAPPY THANKSGIVING DAY....


It's time for another TOTALLY STAMPALICOUS challenge.... To use at least THREE snow flakes on your card or project.

They have listed the winners from the BLOG HOP so make sure to go over to the TS BLOG to see if you are a winner.

Here is my take on the challenge... I used "Let it Snow - Stella".. I love Stella and all her humorous sentiments.


As you can see I have hundreds of snowflakes on my card... The snowflake dp is from "Me and My Big Ideas" - Noel Pack. The red dp is from "My Minds eye". I used a small snowflake punch and punched out the snowflakes from the snowy dp... I watercoloured Stella using Tombow markers and an aquapainter. Used nestabilities t cut out all the ovals. All edges were sponged with Stampin Up "Riding Hood Red".

I hope you will play along with us.... Make sure to add you card to Mr. Linky at the Totally Stampalicious Blog...

Hugs.. Pat

Totally Stampalicious - "Thankful" challenge

First of all I want to let you know that

TOTALLY STAMPALICOUS

is having a

NEW RELEASE and BLOG HOP

Thursday, OCT 7th @ 9:00 PM EST

Be there- you don't want to miss this one!!

Plus, there will be more stuff that will be given away!!!

Today "Totally Stampalicious" is challenging us to make a thankful card or project as our Canadian Thanksgiving is just around the corner (October 11th). I used "Farmer Hawg" and one of the fun sentiments from this set. I coloured the (digi) image with Prisma colour pencil crayons and gamsol. The designer paper is from Recollections "Autumn" pack. I cut out two extra pumpkins and one crow from the dp. Added the crow to the fence beside Farmer Hawg and dry embossed the pumpkins to give them a rounded look. I tied on the wooden "corn cob" with raffia... All edges were stitched and all three panels are popped up.

I used Sketch #SC300 from Splitcoast Stampers - they are celebrating their 300th sketch and have many, many very generous sponsors - and Totally Stampalicious is proud to be one of them. Check out more on the sketch challenge HERE.


This also qualifies for Our Creative Corners challenge - this week they have a colour challenge -Cajun Craze, Old Olive, More Mustard, Early Espresso and Very Vanilla.

I hope you will join us over at TOTALLY STAMPALICOUS, make sure to check out what the other DT members have come up with to inspire you....

FS191 - You're "Tea"rific

I created this card for today's Featured Stamper challenge over at Splitcoast Stampers. Allison aka "Alimarbles" is being honoured today as FS191 .... I chose to case THIS pretty clean and simple card "CAS Leaves by alimarbles". The stamps I used are from Stampin Up - the teapots are from a retired set called "Best Borders" and the sentiment is from "Morning Cup". I scored the white background into squares. The wavy red border is a die cut that I painted. All edges were stitched. Image panel is popped up.

Happy Stamping and Creating,
