New Release day

Good morning blogland,

It's the day after the 7th of the month (this is about as close as I get these days to being on time) so it's only just one day past the first half of New Releases for June from All Dressed Up Stamps.

I am always so happy to see Wendy's new stamps, you know they are always going to be super cute and this month it's no exception.  I was given Wash Day to colour up.  This is the card I made:

Supplies used:

Digital stamp:

All Dressed Up - Wash Day

coloured with my Copics

Rubber stamp (sentiment):

Honey Doo Crafts - Everything Stardust

Dies:

un-branded stitched rectangles

Anything else:

Coloured card

random flower embellishment

I know I've used the image as a birthday card, but it really doesn't have to be, it would work just as well for a new baby, or a thank you - maybe while someone's watched your house while you're away.  It's just I don't need any of those cards and, as I'm always in a rush these days, a birthday card seemed simplest.

If you'd like to see what my Facebook Teamies have done with the rest of this release do pop on over to the Facebook Group where there are some lovely examples to look at.  If you're not a Facebook person, the blog is still there and the blog ladies have excelled themselves as well.

See you soon,

Sarah

Feeling Sentimental

Good morning blogland,

It's a Tuesday morning and time for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers, this week our Teamie Marlene has picked the theme and she's chosen 'Add a Sentiment'.  So this week break out those markers and add a sentiment to your creation!

We're sponsored by the ever wonderful Polkadoodles and the prize on offer is 3 digi images of the winners choice.  The DT were allowed some digis to use and this is my make with the image I used:

Supplies used:

Digital stamp:

Polkadoodles - Balloon Days

coloured with my Copics

Rubber stamp:

Woodware - Celebrating You

Stencil:

Taylored Expressions - Scattered Stars

Anything else:

Creative Expressions - Noble Collection: Double Stitched Squares

Distress Ink

blending brush

Just looking at that card now - I'm wondering if I stamped the 'Have a' a bit on the wonky side!  I keep turning my head on the side and trying to work out if it's me or the card - I'll have to go find the original and take a close look!!

So hope all you colourists out there take a wander over to the challenge and pop a creation in when you're there and also a take a look at the fabulous cards my Teamies have made.

See you soon,

Sarah

For the littl 'uns

 Good morning Blogland

Just a flyer from me for today - it's the first Saturday of a new month (arrrgghh June already!) and so it's also time for a new challenge over at Crafty Calendar Challenge.  For this month the theme is 'For a Child' and we are sponsored by Rachelle Anne Miller (RAM Stamps).

The Design Team were very lucky to be given some Digi Stamps to play with and this is my make with one of them:

Supplies used:

Digital Stamp:

RAM Stamps - Giraffe Hug

coloured with my Copics

Rubber Sentiment Stamp:

My Favorite Things - I'll Love You Forever

Dies:

un-branded stitched rectangle

Pretty Pink Posh - Scallop Borders 2

Anything else:

very old piece of patterned paper

This was meant to be for a new baby - but looking at it, I'm not entirely sure that works! Hey, ho - some we win, some we lose!  

See you soon,

Sarah
