DT- Creative Inspirations Pink and Cream Clara...

Hello Blogger Buddies,
it is time for a new challenge at
Creative Inspirations,
a colour challenge of PINK and CREAM
and guess who's sponsoring us this glorious challenge?
None other than the fabulous
Simon Says Stamps, woohoo!!!


The "recipe" is toward the bottom of this post in an attempt to shave down the length of my post, yet again. I had fun with this project!! I had so many leaves and flowers out, distressed, glimmer misted and Stickled, all ready to go onto my project, but then I started having a crisis about covering up all of the birdcages on this fab BG paper, so I left most of them off. I did lots of paper piecing on this one, I stamped the image as if she were reaching right out of her oval and shadowed the image in Faded Jeans ink, then I coloured and cut out another image, she is glued down in most areas except for her head and her dress, I popped those spots up with foam dots, it is a great effect to enhance paper piecing.


I've played along with several other challenges:
Basic Grey Challenges
wants to see animals on our creations,
Cute Card Thursdays' challenge is Bloomin' Gorgeous!!
And I used the sketch from Sketch Saturday,
although I swapped out a sentiment for a bow...
As usual, had to tweak something.



Supplies:
Stamps: Kraftin' Kimmie (this is Clara), Inkadinkado flourishes
Mediums: Ranger Distress Unk, Archival Ink, Crystal Stickles
Papers: Basic Grey designer paper, Bazzill cardstock
Flowers: Little Primas, ek Success fern punch, MS twig punch,

Others: organza ribbon, foam dots, sewing machine

Be Mine or else......

Hello everybody,
I hope all is well with you!!
As you can see, there is some new rubba
over at House of Stephanne
and I could hardly handle waiting to ink them up!!
This one is called "Drucilla",
from the Moonlight Whispers line of
Kraftin' Kimmie stamps,
and I love her wacky butt to bits!!
The characters remind me of Nickelodeons' Rugrats!!


The DP is My Minds Eye from the be*loved release,
cardstock is Bazzill, and everything else is from my stash,
except for those little red buttons from Princess Bling.
I've coloured in distress inks,
added Stickles and Peach Spica pen,
as well as Pewter Liquid Pearls.
She seems like a spunky gal so I gave her
a few highlights and burgundy lo lights, heehee!!


I've used the sketch over at
Stampin' For The Weekend,
I've used Drucilla's legs as a component of the sketch,
at Kraftin' Kimmie's Challenge,
they've set a colour challenge of
red, pink and brown + hearts,
Crafty Creations
is hosting a Valentine's or Love theme,
and that is it, I guess.
So many sketches at the moment,
really puts a damper on my challenge combo's....

Thanks for stopping by tonight,
have a wonderful weekend!!
Stephanne
