Rag Doll Misty and some buttons

Have you seen the adorable Rag Doll line of images
available exclusively at Simply B Stamps?


This is Misty.
She's cute right? Yeah, I thought so too.
There are three more of these adorable images and
I have two more to show you in the coming days. 

I decided to keep it very simple, yet girly. For me, anyway.
I used a couple of MS border punches and I used one ready made
button and two buttons that are "Creepy-made".

I even used a sentiment on the inside. I almost never do
anything on the inside, but I had this cute image from
Tiddly Inks that was perfect.

I didn't have any lavender buttons to match this project
and it screamed for buttons and lace to me. So, I decided
to try a technique I saw on Splitcoast for homemade paper

First, I made this one. Cute. Sparkly. Nice.
Then it dawned on me. All the possibilities!!!
Out come the Martha Stewart Hallowe'en punches!

OMG right?! Endless possibilities!!!

Here is the tutorial if you are interested in some 
easy awesomeness!

Rio and Raven sneak peek

Just one more day before the anxiously
awaited release of the new Teen Scene line

Today's peek is of Raven and Rio. 

How adorable and magically delicious are they?! 

Since I destashed with that bright ass background, 
I decided to keep the rest really simple.
I destashed some more with the teal tulle and
called it a day.

Stop back by tomorrow for the last debut and the
long awaited release of these awesome images
over at SBS!
Plus, there's a little hop and some swag if you're good.

Betty and Batty sneak peek

Well, we're almost there! Only 2 more peeks
until the release of the Teen Scene line from SBS. 

Today I have Betty herself, and her faithful companion, Batty
to show you!

I must confess, this is my favorite image from this release.
It must be the look on Betty's face and that "too cute for words"
bat of hers! 

I kinda went "bat-happy" on this card. I wanted to use as much
bat themed schtuff as possible, and I believe I accomplished just that.
I got to use that killer puffed bat ribbon from Hambo Stamps that
I have been hoarding since last year. Oh, and that awesome
MS bat border punch was unused before now as well. 

Thanks for stopping by today. Feel free to peruse the other
fabulous DT work over at Simply Betty Stamps, and I'll be back
tomorrow with another peek!

Miller and Max Sneak Peek

Today I have another preview of the awesome
new "Teen Scene" line from Simply Betty Stamps,
set to release this Friday.

Here is Max and Miller.

I am really enjoying this new line.
The images are perfect for the wee kiddos,
right on up to the fickle teens and young adults.

I had great fun putting together this 
snake-a-licious card.

I finally got to use my Tim Holtz reptile embossing folder.
When I added the clear embossing powder it really made the 
paper look like reptile skin! LOVE it!
Made up a cute "sssssnakey" saying and ta-dah!

Check back tomorrow for another cute preview!
All six new images will release this Friday with a 
little release hop and goodies to be won!

Teen Scene Sneak Peek

All this week I will be previewing the new line at
Simply Betty Stamps called, Teen Scene.
These will be released for sale this Friday at SBS.

Today I have created a fun card using, Lola and Louie.  

Such a great image and so fun to color.
Lola reminds me a bit of Stevie Nicks with her
long, flowing dress and billowy sleeves.
I kept her all in purple with just a touch of pink
for some accent. 

I got to use my MS rat punch for the border which is perfect
for this image. I kept everything pretty simple and just
added some corner accents from Sizzix with a touch
of purple Stickles for a little sparkle.

Thanks for stopping by. Please drop by the SBS blog
to see what the other DT members created with Lola.

I'll be back tomorrow with another sneak peek!
