Claudia’s Tutu

Have you seen the cute little bears from Pollycraft that are now at Little Miss Muffet Stamps?  I love them and I’m excited to announce that Spencer & Claudia join the team regiment.  There were two rubber stamps released this month and I’m also release two more next month – so what out for those but today, I’ll share a card with the Claudia that is already available.

For this project I used Claudia’s Tutu and part of the SS Sweet Sentiments stamps near the bottom; both are rubber stamps from Little Miss Muffet Stamps and I’ve also used the Party Banner Diecut!!  The papers are from a Valentine possibly from K&Company which was mostly pink but there was a purple sheet that I’ve used to create a few purple cards.  ;D

My daughter also had fun playing with Claudia’s Tutu and this is what she came up with.  She’s starting to square up and frame her mages which I think is awesome and it’s also great that her embellishments are no longer piled on top of the image.  ;D  I’m so proud of her!

You check find Claudia’s Tutu and the other new releases at Little Miss Muffet Stamps in the What’s New section and thanks for dropping by today!  Have a great weekend!

Ice Cream Bench

It’s challenge time!!  Little Miss Muffet Stamps is starting the next challenge and we want to see your luvy-duvy projects for this fortnight is all about “Hearts and Flowers!”  Of course, I could resit using one of the newest rubber stamp images from LMM and this was the perfect theme to get these cute sweethearts out together.  ;D

This project using the *new* SS Ice Cream Bench and SS Sweet Sentiment rubber stamps from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  This adorable image was drawn by Pollycraft and is perfct all year around!  Yes, even during the winter months… especially if you’re adicted to ice cream like I am!  LOL

The flowers are found in the buttons and also a small border on the bottom of the card and if you can’t see the hearts then I might be a little worried for you – I’ve even used them in the sentiment with my paper piecing!  He he he.  Here’s a close up of the sweethearts and you can also see the background better.  I used light blue and did some dotting around the image.

Be sure to head on over to the LMM Challenge Blog and check out all the other wonderful creations using this theme!  Plus there are going to be some changes… remember how you can use a LMM image and submit unlimited “Anything Goes” projects?  Well now we’re adding Pollycraft images too!!  So when using a Little Miss Muffet Stamp or a Pollycraft stamp, you can choose to follow the current challenge theme or submit anything you want!!  Plus there is no limitations on the number of LMM and Pollycraft entries in the challenge!  Whoo hoo!  So what are you waiting for?  Come on over and play!

Ice Cream Cart

I’m so excited to announce the latest release from Little Miss Muffet Stamps and this one you are bound to love!!  It’s the Valentines Release!!  Of course, pink and brown are my favorite colors so making cards for Valentines is extra double fun and this card is no exceptions.  AND ice cream?  I love ice cream!  Make sure you head on over to LMMS too and check out all the New Releases!

For this project I used the Swings ‘n Slides Ice Cream Cart plus the Swings ‘n Slides Sweet Sentiments rubber stamps from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  Then I colored it with my favorite colors and added some mint green to color the Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream with.  Yummy! 

Then I started putting together the card – notice the sewing?  Yep, I still have my sewing machine out on the table!  😀  Then I added some embellishments from friends such as the green pearls from Ruby and the flower from Arabella – thanks sweeties!  Next I wanted to use the sentiment from this release so I stamped it on kraft cardstock and this is what I came up with …

The heart was stamped on white paper then cut and popped up on the sentiment tag which added a fun element.  As for the sentiment… well, I have to save these kinds of cards for really special people because I dooo love my ice cream!  LOL   So it makes for a perfect Valentine card from me. 

I hope you’ve enjoyed this card and make sure you check out all the other new rubber stamps at Little Miss Muffet Stamps – you’ll *love them more than ice cream!*  😀

Luna Bitterfrost Stars Rock

This is such an exciting week and there is just so much going on that I feel like I’ve been writing posts every day!  LOL  But that’s great and really keeps me on my toes.  😀  What’s more is I have finally updated and released a whole bunch of new stamps at Little Miss Muffet Stamps today!!  (You can read more about it below.)  I wish I had a card using one of the new images but instead I’m sharing an older one I created during the summer.

The image I used is Luna Bitterfrost Stars Rock by Little Miss Muffet Stamps which was drawn by Pollycraft.  This girl reminds me so much of my daughter because she is currently “into” double braids, just like this image, and she asks for them every day!  I’ve been creative enough that I have about 4 different styles so her fashion statments isn’t quite to monotonous.  She’s happy and I’m happy.  LOL

Anyway, now back to the New Releases today at LMMS… I’m so excited to announce a whole knew set of images called Build-a-Monster!!  There are over 90 elements to play with and an endless number of monsters you could create.  It’s been so much fun that I’ve created several monsters myself!

Take a look at What’s New…

The Complete Mega Pack includes the whole kit and caboodle for endless fun – it has all 90 elements to play with PLUS 10 different monsters that are already completed!!  However, I’ve also created two mini packs that have a selection of the elements into a small package.  Each of the combo packs include the elements in PNG format with transparent background for easy merging.  It will keep you busy for hours!!

My Ride

There’s a fun challenge opening up today over at Little Miss Muffet Challenges that I’m sure you’re going to want to participate in.  😀  The theme is “Anything but Square” and we want to see projects that are not the norm (such as what I have below, LOL) or if you are using a Little Miss Muffet Stamp or Diecut then you can submit “Anything Goes!”

The stamp I used is “My Ride” from Little Miss Muffet Stamps which is an image drawn by Pollycraft.  He was perfect for a boy card and I love the wood banner I added – wish I could find more of those!  😀

Make sure you get a chance to visit the LMMS Challenge Blog and check out all the wonderful creations the DT has created.  Also the previous post has Blog Candy that you don’t want to miss out on either.  😀  Thanks for coming by today!

Flower Girl

Happy Monday everyone!  I have a quick project to share as I have a ton of emails waiting for me that I should be getting to.  You know how it goes – it’s just one of those weeks where everything should have been done yesterday but it doesn’t look like you’ll get around to it until tomorrow.  Humph.  Anyway, lucky for you, I still have over a dozen projects saved in draft mode and I’ll be able to keep you inspired as I get through this.

For this project I used Flower Girl from Little Miss Muffet Stamps which is one of the images from Pollycraft.  This little girl is so cute and reminds me of my own girls – they love wearing hats and dresses!!  I’m surprised at how girlie they can be yet occasionally they’ll get really tom boyish too.  So I guess that’s a good thing.  😀

I was able to use a few new diecuts (well, they were new when I used them) from Memory Box although I think I might have to get one of those metal cutting pads for my Cuttlebug as they just didn’t cut as well as I thought.  The butterfly did ok the second time through but the three had to go through three or four times and still didn’t get it all.  I even used a few extra sheets of paper between the layers to press it down more.  Not sure if I need to switch out my cutting pad or not but that might be worth a try.

That’s about it for today.  I have some new images planned for this Thursday over at Little Miss Muffet Stamps that you don’t want to miss out on so be sure to mark your calendars.  😀
