New releases at Stampotique!!

That's right, it's another new release at Stampotique.

They've gone monthly with their releases so you don't have 

to wait so long between new release dates.

They're nice like that over at Stampotique.

I have used 'Cranium', and the large cupcake here.

Both are from this month's release.

 The Circled Circle I've used for the background is an oldie, but a goodie. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Be sure to check all of the new releases at Stampotique today!!

Ch.44 Aurora Wings - Anything Goes

Good morning!!
I am here today to share my card for the new challenge theme at
Aurora Wings Challenge Blog.
The theme is, 'Anything Goes', which you would think would be
pretty easy. No rules, just us any Aurora Wings image.
That's like choosing your favorite child. Mitzi has created so many
adorable, beautiful, and whimsical images, it is so hard to choose
just one.

I managed to finally decide on using one of the newer Fruit Sprites, 

Cherry Sprite.

Cherry Sprite is adorable, and so very perfect for
Grandma's Birthday card. 

I colored her up in pinks and fuchsias, as I thought red would be too obvious.

I splattered some Worn Lipstick distress ink and some Perfect Pearls Mist

in Biscotti on the background paper to sort of bring everything together.

I also used some fabric trim for a bit of texture and interest.

And I Stickled the heck out of her dress. She is a Sprite after all. 

And Sprites must 

SPARKLE!! 

Thanks so much for stopping by today.

Be sure to stop by the Aurora Wings Challenge Blog for more

inspiration and eye candy from the talented design team. 

SDC:267 Seeing Red

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Well, happy belated, Valentine's Day.

I made some Valentine ATCs for the current challenge theme at 

Stampotique Designer's Challenge.

The theme is 'Seeing Red'.

I took it kind of literally...

This is #6081 Mervyn.

He is perfect when only a head will do.

I used #6109 Daniel's Hearts for the background.

And here we have the lovely #6208 Jillian.

I added some pearl hearts to her eyes and then used Glossy Accents to give

her some cool shades. 

I used #6119 Hanging Hearts for the background. 

Lastly, I used #7232 ATC stamp for the back of my ATCs.

How have I been making ATCs without this stamp in my life?!

Thanks for stopping by today.
