Here is my entry for July's
Motivet Sketch Challenge. This challenge was fun, I love the layout. I even broke out the old sewing maching and tried some stitching. It was harder than I thought. I'm not used to sewing on paper (fabric is more forgiving - ya can't see that my 'straight' lines aren't straight...). Anyway, these Dexter and Doraline stamps are so adorable (Phebe at
The Town Scrapper carries these), I love colouring them with my copics! The sentiment is also Motivet. The solid coloured paper is Stampin Up and the patterned paper is by Cosmo Cricket. Looking forward to the next challenge!!!
Bye for now,

I am very priviledged to be a guest designer for The Town Scrapper in Petrolia for the month of August. This is very exciting for me as I love to create all the time and love sharing my passion with others who have the same love for stamping! So, thanks Phebe! This adorable image is a Humble Pie stamp from The Town Scrapper, way to go Phebe! Check out more card samples from her amazing Design Team on the Humble Pie Blog. I coloured this image using my copic markers. I chalked the edges to soften the look. The patterned paper is We R Memory Keepers called (Tiffany's). I of course added some stickles, because I'm obsessed right now with glitter! I used crystal for the wings, lime green for the leaf and stem, fruit punch for the flower and also added some Smootch's lime green sparkle to accent to the leaf. I used some big eyelet snaps, and added some ribbon I had and popped it all on a card! This was so fun to create as there are so many possibilities!!! So, stop by The Town Scrapper to pick up all these items and get creating!!! There is a sale on right now until August 5th!!! Have a great weekend!!! 
I finally got around to making a card from this adorable image by CC Designs (Heidi - Swiss Pixies). I stamped her a few times (cause you just never know) - good thing I did! My first try I didn't like the colours I used, but I liked the way I did her hair. So I coloured the other image (using my copics) with different colours and paperpieced her wings, dress and boots to the original one! I didn't glue her wings all the way down and ended up curling them a bit to make it look like her wings were 3D. I used the adorable 'Berry Blue' patterned paper from Doodlebug Designs. Added some buttons embellished with Scrappers Floss and added the happy birthday sentiment (also CC Designs). Oh, I also added some stickles 'cause no Pixie would be complete with out some sparkle!!! Thanks for looking!
Happy Wednesday everyone!!! How cute is this Greeting Farm stamp??? Surfer Ian!!! Just snagged it from another 'road trip' to The Town Scrapper. I made a birthday card and had so much fun colouring him! The sentiment is CC Designs. There were so many possibilities for the background paper, but I finally chose CosmoCricket - snorkel. I added some ribbon & buttons to the wave at the bottom. I didn't want to give it away after I finished it...lol!.JPG)
