Happy Birthday Little Sister!

March 28th is my youngest sisters birthday. She's a full 10 years younger than me, and I think I'm starting to feel jealous of her age...Regardless, I made her a card...lol! This is Twisted Tea, a digi stamp from The Greeting Farm. I love her! She makes me think that if Tim Burton ever got a hold of Gwen Stefani, this would be the result...lol. I have to admit, I saw a card on another blog that I liked so much I copied the idea, so I won't take credit for the design of this card.

She is printed on US white CS from Stampin'Up! and layered on basic black. I tossed in a little Pixie Pink (punched with my new Martha Steward Loopy Border punch) and some PP from Chatterbox. She is coloured with my Prismacolour Pencils and topped off with some flowers and rhinstone brads from my stash of goodies. I also added some faux stitching around the top with a white gel pen.

I'd love to hear what you think!

Cheeky little thing...

Well, it's a rainy day here in Toronto, but it was my day off, so, it was still top notch! I spent a little time stamping today, but I really have to get a new table to craft on. Crouching over my coffee table is not the epitome of comfort...ouch...

Todays card features Cheeky Rockabilly
from The Greeting Farm. Isn't she cute? So sassy...She is stamped on US White and layered on Tempting Turquoise (card base is also TT) all from Stampin'Up! The patterned paper is The Citrus Pack from DCWV. I coloured her using my Prismacolour Pencils and then added some gloss to her hair with Crystal Effects. I popped up the layers and added some flowers and a rhinestone brad from the Dollarama. I added a little sparkle to her outfit with my clear Atyou Spica pen. Hope you like her!

It's time, it's time...

Yes, it's time for the "New Moon" DVD to be released! I'm a huge Twilight Saga fan and will be heading out in a little while to first go see "The Runaways", which I am very excited about, and then I'm off to Best Buy because at midnight they start selling the DVD with an Edward action figure no less! In honour of the DVD release, I have a cute little card that I made a few weeks ago featuring a digi stamp from The Greeting Farm. His name is Edward and he is adorable! Anyone who has seen the movie will recognize the pose...swoon...lol


I printed Edward on Whisper White and layered him on Really Rust from SU, with a scrap of blue paper I ran through my CB using the Argyle embossing folder. I also used a scrap of patterned paper from Chatterbox. All of that is layered on Barely Banana (also SU). I coloured Edward using some coloured pencils and get this, I used Versamark Dazzle ink all over his skin to make him sparkle! I used some copper coloured string to tie on a handcut tag that reads "Team Edward" from the "Fictionally Inspired" stamp set from Artful Inkables.

I'm also looking forward to tomorrow as I'm off to Stamping Bella and I'm going to corrupt a friend who has just discovered stamping...mwah..ha..ha..
