Pixie Dust Studio Release Day!

Good morning!  I made it, I made it!  My son is home from school today since they have to be 24 hours fever free before they can go back to school.  Oh, the joys of parenthood!

I'm here, as promised, with my release day project for the latest line "7" by Pixie Dust Studio!  Today I'm showing off Doc and done a double duty him...it's also used for the PDS Challenge that is live right now!  NUMBERS.  Use numbers any way you like on your project and play along with us!  The inside of my card (which I failed to take a picture of) says...and call me in the morning!  Isn't he the cutest little doctor?

Thanks so much for popping in today to see what I've been working on!  Don't forget...all 7 of the little dwarfs are on sale right now at the PDS Shop!  MWAH!

Pixie Dust Studio Sneak Peek

Good afternoon everyone!  After a week full of not one, but 2 sick kids, I have realized that I should probably not try to schedule posts at 11PM!  I had my Pixie Dust Studio sneaky peek set to go live at 6PM!  Whoops!!!

Without further ado...here is your sneak peek at Sleepy from the new line to be released tomorrow called "7!"   I paper pieced his robe to match my daughter's and made his teddy a panda to go along with her pillow pet.  Awwwww!  My dear daughter was NOT happy about this picture either!  *evil grin*

Be sure to swing back by tomorrow for another project from the "7" line and the release!  Woohoo!  MWAH!

Can You Digi It? Challenge 5

Good morning peeps!  I'm here with another challenge for the Can You Digi It? blog and it's got flair!  What is it, you ask?  PRETTY PEACOCK!  Use the following collage of awesome items to inspire your peacock project!  Be sure to come by and join us...Michelle is offering up a $10 store gift certificate to the winner!  :O)

I opted to PEAR my peacock with the image called Pears by LilyPink Designs.  I erased the striped pair in photoshop and used a color overlay on the polka dotted pear to match my peacock.  Added the peacock in front, arranged the sentiment that comes with the image set and print!  I used the current sketch at Deconstructed Sketches for this one.  I hope you like it!

Thanks for popping in today...be sure to drop by tomorrow, I'll have my first Pixie Post live and with sneaky peeks!

Simply B Stamps Blog Hop & Release!!!

Good afternoon everyone!  Have you all been enjoying the previews from Simply B Stamps latest line?

Welcome to the Alice in Wonderland Chibis Blog Hop!
If you have come here from the fabulous Suzi's Blog, then you are right on course!  If not, start back at the SBS Blog so you don't miss a thing!

The last image we have for you is the Mad Hatter!  I tried and tried to color him up with my Copics the way Johnny Depp was in the movie, but it was scary!  I opted for Photoshop to color him.  It looks bizarre to me, but what the heck...he was bizarre in the movie.  :O)  I paper pieced his hat with some lace too.

Your next stop on the hop is Rebecca...she's got an awesome project for you.  Make sure to comment along the way for your chance to win the Hatter!

If you get lost along the way, here is the complete hop list.

Bunny Love

Good evening all!  I have some exciting news that will follow my post, so read all the way to the bottom!  I'm back with another post for Simply B Stamps and the Alice in Wonderland Chibis.  We have Alice herself for you today!

I decided to go with a digital layout for this image because I had the cutest picture of my daughter, Ariel, snuggled up close with a bunny at the petting zoo.  Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!  I used my own line of digital papers appropriately called Hunny Bunny...you can buy them for yourself HERE!  :O)

I hope you love Alice as much as I do!  Be sure to come back tomorrow for the RELEASE DAY BLOG HOP!  We'll have the last image and I'm sure some wheels and deals from Betty!

Want that news I was talking about in the first line of the post?  Pixie Dust Studio has asked me to join their Design Team!  How totally cool is that?  Woohoo!  Be looking for a special something from me next week for their newest release, "7"!

Off With Her Head!!!

Not off with Betty's head, of course!  I LURVE her!  I'm back with another sneak peek of the new Alice in Wonderland Chibis from Simply B Stamps!  Today we are featuring The Red Queen!

My sweet little one, Ariel, wanted to help with the release and she made this adorable card...complete with some shimmering spray, brads and a mulberry rose!  :O)

And I used the queen on a cool background I found on the internet!

Be sure to stop back by tomorrow...same time, same place!  Have any guesses as to who will be here?  MWAH!

GRINNING KITTIES...Simply B Stamps sneak peek!

Good evening all!  I told you I'd be back with another post today!  I'm here to show you a little sneaky peekof the Cheshire Cat from the Alice in Wonderland Chibis line over at Simply B Stamps!  How fun, indeed!

I used some paper from Making Memories and my Copics to color him up.  Nesties made the circle and scallop, as well as the yellow clouds in the background that I'm hoping you can see.  The sentiment comes from a PTI set, the gems and card stock from my stash.  :O)

Be sure to check back in tomorrow for another sneak peek...featuring my dear daughter, Ariel!

Daffodils and Dandelions...

Hello, my little cupcakes!  I hope all is well on your side.  I'm popping in today to share a project I made for the Can You Digi It? Challenge, as well as the Desert Island Crafts Challenge!  A two-fer!

The challenge at CYDI? is called Over the Rainbow...here is the photo inspiration.

The itinerary over at DICC is as follows...please remember to use at least 3 items!

  1. SQUIRREL
  2. RACCOON
  3. MONKEY
  4. MOUSTACHE
  5. GNOME
  6. ORANGE
  7. GRASS
  8. PAPER PIECING
  9. COLORED PENCIL COLORING
  10. RAINBOW

I used the little squirrel from the set called Retro Simply Woodland at CYDI?.  I paper pieced him and colored his flower and spots in Photoshop.  These are 2 of the flowers we are seeing blooming here in Kansas right now.  It has been crazy warm here for this time of year...already in the upper 80's.  Today it's 60ish and rainy, so at least we're back to "normal."  I used numbers 1, 6, 7, 8 & 10 for the DICC itinerary.  Come on over and join us!!!

Have a lovely day and be sure to peek in at 8PM for a Simply B Stamps sneaky peek!  MWAH!

HBD2U!

Good morning everyone!  So sorry for the lack in posts lately.  Lots of stuff going on!  I'm here with another monthly challenge for Simply B Stamps!  We are at #3 of Simply Challenged...can you believe it?  Mid way through March already!  Today's challenge is an easy one for you...make a project to celebrate any occasion!  Remember if you use an SBS image you get TWO entries into the drawing.  ;O)

I used Emo Valentine Rio for my birthday card and I just love her!  I added some Stickles to my Thickers after I colored them with my Copics.  :O)
 

Thanks so much for popping in this morning!  Mwah!
