Simply B Stamps Release - Mythical Teens!

Hello, all! It's the first of February and the first release of Simply B Stamps for the month! These are a doozy! So whimsical and interesting! I know you will love them as much as I do!

The Mystical Teens are collection of amusing characters from myths of long ago! This collection includes fauns, fairies, nymphs, and merpeople! They will be popular for all those who love legends, fairy tales, and lore! (And probably everybody else! LOL)

This is the lovely Betty Faun Queen. I love her wavy hair and leaf dress!

This is Lola the Fairy. Her flowing hair and fluttery wings are so beautiful!

This is the handsome Fairy Boy Miller!

This gorgeous creature is London Nymph! I am in love with the London's from Simply B Stamps because they have such gorgeous curly hair!

This sweet little guy bearing a flowery gift is Jude Faun Prince!

Here is Chris Faun King! He's playing a magical tune!

This enchanting young lady is Rio the Siren!

And last but certainly, not least, is Christian Merboy! (He was such a pleasure to color!)

 

 

So what do you think? Loads of fun, huh?!

Simply Challenged - January 29 - Anything Goes!

Hello, all!

Anything Goes, yes you are correct use any SBS image and ANYTHING goes!!!

I always love an Anything Goes challenge! The hardest part for me is choosing which stamp to use!
For this challenge, I used Spaghetti Christian from the Teen Scene Kitchen Fun Collection!

Hot Stuff Card. I used Spaghetti Christian to create a cheeky little Valentine, along with some older kitchen-themed papers I had in my stash. The die cut pot was cut using my Cricut Expression and the
From My Kitchen cartridge.

Make sure to check out the challenge and the other DT projects at SCC! I hope you'll decide to participate in this awesome challenge!

Creative Creations Challenge #2 - Keep it Simple

Hello, all! I am a bit late in posting this! I have not gotten used to the time difference of my new DT! Lol.

This new challenge from CCC is to keep your projects simple! That should be easy enough for everyone, so I want to see just as many entries to this challenge as the first!

This challenge's sponsor is Digital Delights!

Here is my Keeping it Simple card:

No Place Like Home card. I used a fun "Dorothy" image from Digital Delights for my card. She came with her very own "Toto"! I used some of the scraps I had left from my Magic of Oz paper stack from Graphic 45. The images were colored with Copics.

 

 

I hope you'll stop by Creative Creations to join the challenge and visit Digital Delights to see the wonderful products they offer!

Simply Challenged - Jan 15 - Glow!

Hi, everyone! It's time for another SCC challenge! And this one is such a fun one! The challenge is to create a glow effect on the image you use for your project! This is a technique I am not really familiar with but I can truthfully tell you that it was a whole lot of fun to play with.

Here is my Glow Challenge example:

This was a blast to do! Everyone has a different ways of coloring, not to mention different coloring materials. I use Copic markers but I know of ladies who use Promarkers and even som that use colored pencils. Now, I colored in with the lime greens first, so that I would know where the glow was going to be.I then colored the rest of the image like I normally would. Finally, I went over the parts that were supposed to glow with the greens again. I am really happy with the way this came out.

 

 

Supplies:

Bo Bunny Enchanted Collection Papers

Bo Bunny Enchanted Collection Chipboard Stickers

Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts

Peeled Paint Distress Ink

Lime Green Liquid Pearls

Copics

Shimmerz Hermit the Frog Mist

Thanks for stopping by! Make sure to check out the SCC blog and the DT blogs to see all the awesome Glow projects created!

Hello, all! I don't know if I announced this officially but I am now a member of the Creative Creations Design Team! The DT is for the new Creative Creations Challenges Blog! And today is the very first challenge! So to make it easy for everyone, it's Anything Goes!

The sponsor for this challenge is That Craft Place!

For this challenge, I created a card. I used a Simply B Stamp from the Teen Scene Kitchen Fun Collection; Baking Betty.

What's Cookin' Card. I colored the image using Copics and made highlights using an opaque white pen. The papers are from The Paper Studio, the alphas are from Thickers, and I used some Liquid Pearls for accents.
