This group is so darn cute! Did I just say that again? lol  Cant wait for you to see them all! He is colored with copics and I used BG Pyrus dp along with a ghost border punch.  Next I picked up this image called "smiles" by artists  Daniel Torrente and Jill Penney. 

 

I used some TH dp and some TH antq distress stain plus sponged colored inks thru some punched ribbon. 

So jump on the blog hop and see all the NEW CUTE images!!  Happy Hopping! :)

Kraftin Kimmie and sfytt at : I heart 2 stamp

I have never played over at the "sfytt" challenge blog but I follow Jen Del muro's blog.  I also really like Kraftin Kimmie and decided to play along with the challenge .  With only a few days left I FINALLY grabbed my "perfect poison" gal and colored her up.

 Isnt she just so cool looking? lol  Back to the copics for this one!  Dp is MME "haunted" and some "eyeball soup" from Reminisce= Halloween collection.  TFL!

Keep yourself hydrated....

A different take on using the Halloween cube 2 from STAMPOTIQUE.  :)  Love this pumpkin as much as the skeleton on the cube!  Dp is from the TH paperstash pad and his flower die cut.  The button is from a local vintage shop and sentiment is computer generated.  I want to enter this in the Corrosive challenge blog: show your dark side!

Thanks for looking!  Have a great week- :)

Hi there!  Check out the NEW challenge over at STAMPOTIQUE.  Make a bookmark!  easy peasy!  

Our hostess this week is Kate Crane and here is what she has challenged us with:

I am always looking for ways to make art which is useful, something I can use in every day life so what better than a bookmark? You can never have enough of these ... I like to use them to mark pages in all of my favourite art publications! You can make any type of  bookmark: A traditional straight bookmark, a corner bookmark, a swinging tag ... In any style: Vintage, funky, cute or weird. Anything goes! So go and dig out all for your favourite Stampotique stamps, it's time to get creative!!  PLEASE use STAMPOTIQUE only stamps for THIS challenge.:)

Here is my little and somewhat quick bookmark made at the request of ONE dd (she wanted pink!).  I used SMILE from Stampotique and some bg "indie bloom " dp, did a little sponging and punching :)  tfl!  GO check out the other dts' samples!

Love this cute kid: "smile" from STAMPOTIQUE.  There is just something about this image that makes me smile when I see this little guy! :)  The sentiment on the side is "happy happy" also from STAMPOTIQUE.  DP is the bg pad called "indie bloom".   This is a quickie thank you card for a friend who gave me an amazing gift...the inside says "thank you for making me so very happy".  I would like to enter this in two challenges-  Stampin 4 the weekend=  "spots and dots " = the spots (hole punched) on the side in black and the Fab n Funky challenge blog=  "a stitch in time"= stitching on the bottom!     tfl!
