Three projects in a row – could it be? Well, if you haven’t already picked yourself up from falling off your chair, then you can do so now. I promise not to have any more surprises in this post. LOL.
This is the Clover Toadstool Dreams Card Kit from Little Miss Muffet Stamps and includes the rubber stamp. These were actually the original colors that were used for the label of the stamp too. I paired it with a little bit of red and yellow for a good visual punch.
I’ve been enjoying coloring these Skelekinz rubber stamp images and here’s another one for today. This is Skelekinz No Sunshine rubber stamp from Little Miss Muffet Stamps. I must be on a yellow kick too since both projects have a lot of yellow.
LMMS is sponsoring Crafty Catz Challenges this week and the theme is “Add Lace” to your projects. I used some odds and ends from the desk – a trusty source of supplies – and also dived into my flower box for some embellishments. The lace is from a new spool. Perhaps I could have used up some of my older lace but where is the fun in that?! LOL
This card is also a new card kit. Oh yeah! There were only two kits made and it comes with the rubber stamp too. Look for Skelekinz No Sunshine Card Kit in the store plus a couple others there as well.
This project uses Skelekinz Moon rubber stamp from Little Miss Muffet Stamps. There is a new LMM challenge opening up today that you can come participate in Anything Goes.
This was the first I had colored in a long time and I felt a little displaced. I knew I wanted to make it more dimensional but I couldn’t think out the layers and what needed to be colored. I ended up coloring the image completely, four times. LOL. Then I was able to cut out what I needed and pop them up.
I had intended to make the moon look real but I definitely I chose the wrong colors. Now it looks more like cheese! I suppose that fit in with storytelling so it still works. I’m reminded of Wallis and Gromit when they journey to the moon – “everybody knows the moon is made of cheese.”
There’s a new release at Little Miss Muffet Stamps today and among them you’ll find a few new games too. These were designed to fit in an Altoid’s tin but they can be printed much larger too. The one featured in the tin is Gummyland which is similar to the Candyland kid’s game. Players advance down the trail to get the hot air balloon.
The tin games can be loose inside the tin or they can be glued to the outside or the lid of a tin. This next game is Slides and Ladders. It’s plain to see this was inspired by the Chutes and Ladders kid’s game. However, instead of it based on good/bad behavior, this elephants are just having fun.
This last game is Little Houses. It’s sort of a combination of Sorry and Trouble. Players start in the field and move around the board to get home. But watch out . . . you could be trading places with your opponent which might set you back farther.
Meet Polka Dot Pals Petunia … she’s the monthly dollar digi that is being featured in the progressive challenge on Facebook. I didn’t have a lot of time coloring lately but with a little time here and there, I was able to get the scene completed. I left the dress for last because I didn’t know what color it should be. With the advise from the gals in the FB group, I chose white and yellow. Not sure I got the “bang” I was looking for she still looks nice and I like how the project turned out. So I can count that as a success.
We have a new challenge opening up at Little Miss Muffet Challenges and the theme is Anything Goes. I’v used Polka Dot Pals Elisa from LMMS and gave her a Valentine theme. I also added some glitter and bows to the image. The card uses various red embellishments that I have left over. This is the original artwork of this image before it was digitized. The papers are just sketch so I colored as quickly as possible without letting it bleed into the paper too much.
Thanks for stopping by and take a moment to enter in your latest project into our challenge and show if off a bit . . . Challenge #132 – “Anything Goes”
