I love crafting, especially rubber stamping. Most weekends I can be found surrounded by paper, rubber stamps and ink.

Have A Purrfect Day!

Hello,

I'm back from my work travels with a horrible cold and I'm not feeling too well. Luckily, I don't have to go anywhere tomorrow, I just have some reports to finish, so I can make it an office day.

My sister's birthday was yesterday and since she has gotten her present and the card that I made for her, so it's safe to post a picture of her card. I made this last Sunday using a super cute SugarPea Designs set and the Sugar Sketch #33.







I stamped the image in Memento tuxedo black and colored it with Copics, then used a Die-namics circle die to cut  it out per the sketch. I love how these old SU felt flowers match the patterned papers. Unfortunately, I can't tell you where the papers are from. I have this bag of random paper scraps and these were in it.

Supplies
Stamps: What's Mew set by SugarPea Designs
Paper: SU heavy weight card stock and ??? patterned papers
Ink: Memento tuxedo black, Copics and SU Chocolate Chip
Other: Die-namics double stitched circle and Pierced Fishtail Flag STAX dies, SU felt flowers, white gel pen, SU mini glue dots, the Big Shot

Happy Friday and thanks for looking in,
Colleen

Hey There, Pumpkin

Hi and TGIF,

It was a very busy week for me. Many nights I got home pretty late in the evenings and after having a fairly late dinner, I sat down to do some coloring to relax before going to bed.

Leslie's The Challenge #46 is a color challenge this week. The palette is a nice fall one. The sketch is the current SugarSketch 31 from SugarPea Designs. The stamp set is also from SugarPea Designs and one of my favorites.




Here's the inside of my card:



Supplies
Stamps: Bountiful Blessings set by SugarPea Designs
Paper: SU Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler and X-Press It Blending card stock, Lawn Fawn Sweater Weather patterned papers
Ink: Memento tuxedo black, Copics and SU Cherry Cobbler
Other: Die-namics Stitched Curved Rectangle and Wide Fishtail Flags STAX dies, SU circle and flower punches, TE medium Scalloped Boarder die, sequins, the Big Shot, dimensionals

I'm ready to relax this weekend because I have to get ready for another busy, busy week. I hope your's is nice and relaxing too.

Thanks for looking,
Colleen

Have a Purrfect Day!

Hello all,

I do hope your day was "purrfect." I wasn't really ready to go back to work after the three day weekend here in the states, but alas, that's what I had to do.

A few weeks ago, I discovered the SugarSketch challenges at SugarPea Designs. The first one I entered was the SugarSketch #09 challenge, and I won the random drawing with this card. Woohoo! Thanks for drawing my entry, Wendy!

I do love the SugarPea Design stamps! They are so, so cute and great for practicing one's coloring, and for me, that's practicing with my Copics.

This past weekend, I made this card for the SugarSketch10 challenge.




This little scene really was fun to color. I keep stretching my comfort zone with the darker shades and I'm happy with how the black hair turned out, as well as the kitty's fur.

Supplies
Stamps: What's Mew set by SugarPea Designs
Paper: SU Pistachio Pudding and Crisp Cantaloupe card stock, XPress-It Blending card stock, SU Sweet Sorbet DSP
Ink: Memento tuxedo black, SU Crisp Cantaloupe and Copics
Other: Fiskars corner rounder punch, SU small banner punch, paper flowers, dimensionals

Thanks for stopping by,
Colleen
