Grizzly Bear and Baggie-Tag Die

~ sproatmeyer ~ 1 Comment

I have another adorable image from Make it Crafty to show off today and this one is small enough that I made a mini tag!  This is Grizzly Bear digital stamp from Make it Crafty and the tag die is C.C. Designs Cutters Baggie and Tag Die which is available at Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  This was a fun quick project and easy to make.  Photographing was the most difficult part.  LOL

The heart, arrow and l-o-v-e letters were created with clay in a rubber mold.  They took over night to dry then I colored two of them with Copic markers.  The blue arrow was then covered with a sparkly glitter stuff.

Hope you like it!  Make sure to visit Make it Crafty for Zoe’s adorable Meadow Girls Digital Stamps!  There may even be some other cuties that you find.  😀  And for rubber stamp fans, you’ll find all the MiC Rubber Stamps 10% Off in the LMMS shop!  One way or the other… I see some shopping to do in your near future.  He he he

Wishful Asha and Jojo

Have you seen the new Meadow Girls over at Make it Crafty yet?  They’re adorable and I couldn’t resist not coloring one up!  😀  I picked out Wishful Asha and paired her with Jojo to make this cute couples scene.  There was magic done on Jojo to remove his flowers then I budded him up next to Asha for a sweat kiss.  I was inspired by Delphine‘s coloring of Lucky Tara and decided to also go for a lucky St. Patrick’s theme for this card. 

I used some older sets of chippies, (aka chipboard embellishments) also from Make it Crafty, and painted some of them with Liquid Pearls and glitter.  Lastly I added some ribbon and finished off the card.  I hope you like it and thanks for dropping by this weekend!

Fancy Sunbonnet Birthday Cake

LMMS is sponsoring CRAFT Challenge this March with their new challenge opening today. The theme is “Mother’s Day or Female” and I decided to go for the pink!

On this project I used Fancy Sunbonnet Birthday Cake rubber stamp available at Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  The papers are left over from some Valentines project and I splashed it up with some blue and red accents.  The love wax seal was another one of the embellishments that I created back in February and this one turned out really nicely.  I was finally getting the hang of melting the wax evenly – so I’ll be a pro for next time.  LOL

Thanks for coming by today and we hope that you can participate in the CRAFT Challenge with us.

Tress Dancing

I had a bit of time to put a card together using one of the images I had already colored last year.  This one is Tress Dancing rubber stamp from Make it Crafty and I had a bit of fun coloring her a bit different.  She so happens to fit in the crazy hair challenge going on at MiC right now too.  Lucky me!  Her color pallet was inspired by Carla and Stephanie and for the fun color combos they used back at the Texas Coloring Retreat.  So much fun!

Squirrels and Mushrooms

Happy Birthday Faye!!   Tomorrow is Faye’s birthday and the Little Misses are all surprising her today with Faye-inspired projects.  She has always inspired us to do better even when she glitter bombs us.  LOL  (Be sure to visit the LMMS blog for more surprises and details today.)

This project is specifically for her – Faye you always inspire me with your fabulous creations!  I ordered the Mushroom Border Die (which is why I had to add it to the LMMS shop because of all your projects – such an enabler.  LOL) and created my project below.  See, I colored it just like you.  😀  I hope you are having a wonderful and colorful weekend!  *Squeezes*

The products I used on this are Squirrels, Three Mushrooms and the Mushroom Border Metal Die – which you can find in the LMMS shop.  Just saying.  ;D  I know this is more of an autumn project but I had these two stamp on my desk waiting since then to be colored.  And why not?  It’s not autumn here but it is on the other side. 

Sunbonnet Fireman Cat in a Tree

There is a new LMMS Challenge starting today and it’s our favorite theme… Anything Goes!  This gave me the chance to color an image that’s been on my list since it’s release last year. 

This is Sunbonnet Fireman Cat in a Tree rubber stamp available at Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  I placed it on a smaller card so I could mail it easy then tried to keep all the embellishments on the flat side.  Sometimes that’s hard for me to remember until I place the card in an envelop and send it off.  LOL  I stamped it with gray and then used bright colors that would hopefully be appealing to a boy.  However, my daughters have a firefighter’s costume that they wear all the time – there is something about the axe that they enjoy.  Bang, crash, thunk on just about everything… the table, the chair, etc.

Hope you have a chance to play along in the Anything Goes Challenge and share us what you’ve been working on lately.  Thank you for coming by and have a wonderful week!
