Zombie Gnome

Hiya! I can't get enough of zombifying! :) I turned this guy from the You Gnome Me set by MyFavoriteThings into a zombie. I colored him with my Copics. I used the Cartoon Cloud Background by MyCreativeTime for the sky. The greeting is also from the You Gnome Me set. I used the Bunch Of Fun Circles Dies and Stitched Rectangular Frames And More Dies from MyCreativeTime as well.  He might look a little more possessed than a zombie, but whatevs. ;) 

20 minutes till the Cubs game starts! EEK! GO CUBS GO!!!!!!!

MCT-Inspire Me Wednesday

Hello! It's Inspire Me Wednesday at MyCreativeTime. For my card today I was inspired by my friend Cassandra's love of all things rainbow. :) So I wanted to rainbowify the cute hot air balloon from the new The Sky Is The Limit set by MyCreativeTime. I used my copics to color it in with 3 shades of each color. I used cool grays for the basket. I stamped the Cartoon Cloud Background with soft pool Hero Arts Shadow Ink. The greeting is also from the new The Sky Is The Limit set. I also used the Stitched Rectangular Frames And More dies to cut out the panel. To finish it off I added sequins.

MCT Sneaks day 4

Hello! It's day 4 of sneaks for MyCreativeTime. Today we are sneaking the new Thanks For The Lift set. Is that chubby little plane not the cutest?! :)  I used my Copic markers to color the plane. I cut out the plane and banner using the coordination dies that come in the Thanks For The Lift set. Love that! I used the Cartoon Cloud Background and Stitched Grass Die inside my shaker. I used the Stitched Rectangular Frames And More Dies for the frame. I filled my shaker with sequins and these little stars. To finish it off, I added wink of stella to the banner and the windows on the plane. I also added glossy accents to the windows.

Hello Watercolor Cloud Shaker

Hiya! It's day 1 of Stretch Your Stamps 2 at OnlineCardClasses. I'm so excited for this class, yay! :) For my card today I smooshed worn lipstick, dried marigold, squeezed lemonade, shabby shutters, broken china, and milled lavender distress inks onto my craft sheet. Then I  put my Cartoon Clouds Background stamp from MyCreativeTime in the ink...then I spritzed my stamp with water and stamped it on water color paper. I used a paintbrush to even out the color in some places. I then turned that panel into a shaker. I created the shaker window using the hello die that comes in the Speech Bubble Sentiments set from MyCreativeTime. I filled my shaker with sequins and added a few to the front. :)

Are you taking the Stretch Your Stamps 2 class? You should, it's fun! :)

MyCreativeTime Designer Challenge-Birthday

Hello! It's time for another Designer Challenge over at MyCreativeTime. The challenge is to create something with a birthday theme. I made a super simple birthday card. I started by stamping the Cartoon Cloud Background with Mint Julep Hero Arts Shadow Ink on my card base. 

I used the Polka Dot Surprise set to stamp the greetings. I used Pale Tomato, Mint Julep, and Butter Bar Hero Arts Shadow Inks. So, there's my super simple card. :)

Smile it's your day!

Hello! I'm sharing a card made with a brand spankin' new background stamp from MyCreativeTime. It's called Cartoon Clouds Background and it is seriously swoon worthy! LOVE! It hasn't been release yet, but you can pop over to Emma's Blog for the chance to win it! YAY! She also shows it in her video. It's HUGE and super awesome. It can be used either portrait {like my card} or landscape! I love it so much I want to make it little pj's and cuddle with it while I sleep, but I won't. That would just be weird. ;)

I stamped it with Soft Pool, Mint Julep, and Tide Pool Hero Arts Shadow Inks to get an ombre look. Just ink up your stamp from light to dark to avoid contaminating a pad with a dark ink color. You can see the color a little better here...

Sorry, it's super rainy and dark out, so cruddy photo's. The greeting is from It's All About You and I stamped it with Charcoal Shadow Ink. I used Coffee Break and Build A Banner to stamp the butterflies.  I filled the shaker window with Ocean Breeze, Mint, and Crystal Clear sequins from NeatAndTangled. 

Be sure to pop over to Emma's Blog to check out her video, and for the chance to win the new and fabulous Cartoon Clouds background.

p.s. Today is the last day to enter the Bling challenge over at Emma's Blog too! :)
