Where?

Good morning, and Happy Happy WEEKEND!

I'm here to share a creation today using lots of brand new Scraptownlady supplies!  Oh my goodness, what fun it was to get my 'fall' box.  I had ordered this sweet summer image, and decided that I should hurry and use it before we get totally into fall and Christmas.  Isn't she precious?  She's a Marianne stamp, and she's one of the adorable Snoesjes girls!  You could color her so sweetly with your choice of mediums! Colored Pencils, Spectrum Noir, Copic, Tombow, or StampinUp Markers....whatever you have on hand!
You can find here HERE!

Here is the easel card all set up.  Isn't she adorable?

This is the inside of the card - all Bo Bunny Goodness :)

And, of course, she folds flat for mailing!

Hope that she brought you a smile today.  I just couldn't wait to get her inky! 

Thanks for looking - hope you'll dash over to the Scraptownlady store and do a bit of shopping.  Cheryl offers an EVERYDAY 20% discount on EVERY order, and if that's not enough, she also charges ONLY the actual shipping costs on each order!  Pretty cool, right?  We'd love for you to follow our blog, too!

Have a great weekend,
Patti J.

Designer's Tip:  When creating a 6 x 6 card or layout, it's fun to make a 6 1/8" square box out of something sturdy, for mailing.  The recipient loves getting a 'present', your card is protected, and you get to show off your box making skills!  It's VERY easy!  Look for a photo tutorial with dimensions next week!

Thinking of you...

Good morning!  Today is my day to post for the ScrapTownLady Blog. I can't believe what a great variety of stamps she carries in the ScrapTownLady store!  I chose to work with this fun Stampendous image today. Just thought something a bit 'girly' seemed like a good plan.

This image was so much fun to create with. I wish you could see it in real life.  There's a touch of sparkle, lots of gloss, and a nice, rich color.  The color was painted on, using Tim Holtz Distress Inks, and a water brush.  Reminded me of being a kid, and playing with my watercolors!  Painting was great therapy, too, as it's been a week of sadness, having lost a friend to cancer. KaiserCraft makes such gorgeous papers, and it was fun searching for just the right combination - it needed to look elegant, a bit vintage, and even a little sassy!  Used my Perfect Layers Rulers for that beautiful 1/8" white border (see sidebar for details). Hope you will head over to the store, and purchase this stamp yourself.  Can't wait to see your creations!

Designer's Tip:  If you are using a stamp that is larger than any acrylic blocks that you have, grab one of your Cuttlebug Plates!  The stamp will stick to it perfectly, it will wipe clean, and you won't have to invest in a larger block!  

Thanks for stopping by today!

Have a great day,
Patti J.

We have a WINNER!!!

I'm pretty sure that you are all smiling, as today is FRIDAY :)

I have a very quick card for the Wednesday challenge at All That Scraps.
The challenge calls for earth tones: moss green, blue, and browns, and an image that can be purchased at All That Scraps.

I chose to use one of my newest stamps - She's Abigail, and she is a C.C. Designs, Sweet Pixies stamp.
She's got her little suitcase, and she's missing someone special.
Hmmmm....maybe it's DD missing DM??? lol...
Didn't have much time today, so made a CAS card.
All coloring is done with Copics.
The DP is from a new Prima paper pad that I ordered from Joan's Gardens.
It's called Reflections, and I think it's totally yummy paper!
The flower and pearls are from Michael's.
The adorable sentiment is from All That Scraps, and is an Amy R. collection called "Wish You Were Here".


That's all I have for you today - it's been a hubub of trips to and from the vet - shots and checkup for new brat dog, and grooming for old brat dog!


I almost forgot - WE HAVE A WINNER!!!

The winner of the August/September Issue of Stamper's Sampler is:
