I Chews You

Hi everyone and Happy Wednesday :)  I hope you are all having a wonderful week.  Today is the start of a new challenge over at the 7 Kids College Fund Challenge Blog.  Our challenge this go around is "anything goes" with a twist to use alcohol markers.  Here is my card:

For my card today, I decided to ink up this adorable from Kraftin Kimmie.  It's called Kraftin Kimmie Bambi Bubble Gum and I think she's adorable :)  I inked her up and stamped her onto Copic Xpress It Card.  I of course colored her with my Copic Markers.  Here are the colors I used:

Skin: E000, E00, E21, E11, R20
Hair: E21, E25, E29
Pinks: R81, R83, R85, R89
Blues: B91, B93, B95, B97, B99
Grays: W2, W4, W6
Boots: C5, C7, C9

My DP is from Carta Bella, it's the Carta Bella Cool Summer Paper Pad.  I added some Glossy Accents to the Bubble and to the gumball machine and then I added some Martha Stewart glitter to the bubble.  The cute sentiment comes with the image.  The swirl in the corner is from a Memory Box die (Tab will be selling these in the store soon).  For a finishing touch, I added a bow and a rose from Wild Orchid Crafts.  Here are some more pictures:

What do you think?  Well, that's it from me today.  Thanks so much as always for stopping by and make sure to stop by the 7 Kids College Fund Challenge Blog and join us in the challenge.  Big Hugs!

Hi everyone and Happy Sunday :)  If you read my post yesterday, then you knew I'd be back today with another Tiddly Inks image :)  I'm sharing my DT card today for 7 Kids College Fund.  I was so excited when Tab started carrying Tiddly Inks in the store, I LOVE these images and I had so much fun coloring this one up. 

For my card, I used the adorable Tiddly Inks image called Fairy Tenderhearted.  Isn't she gorgeous, she was so much fun to color.  I stamped her onto Copic XPress Blending Card.  Of course, I colored her with my copic markers.  For all your copic marker needs, go HERE.  Here are the markers I used:

Hi everyone and Happy Saturday! :)  I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend.  If you haven't heard, one of my absolute favorite stamp companies, Tiddly Inks, is having a design team call (see all the information about the DT call Here on Christy's Blog.  I LOVE Christy's images, I always have, so I knew when I saw this design team call, I had to give it a go.  Wish me luck! :)  My fingers and toes are crossed. :)  Here's my card:

Our challenge for the DT Call was to use our favorite Tiddly Inks image.  Well, I love them all and I don't have a favorite.  I decided after coloring a couple images (I'll have another TI card tomorrow to share so make sure to pop back :)) to use this adorable image called Whatever Blooms.  She's a newer image and I LOVE her!  I especially loved coloring her hair, she was SO much fun to color :)  Here's a list of the copic markers I used:

My cardstock is from SU.  My DP is from Echo Park.  The swirls were made using a Memory Box die (I got mine at Ellen Hutson).  I also added a bow and a rose from Wild Orchid Crafts.  The cute sentiment is from My Creative Time.  Here are a few more pictures:

What do you think?  Well, that's it from me today.  Like I said above, I'll have another TI image on my blog tomorrow so please come back :)  Have a wonderful weekend!  Huge hugs!

Let Down Your Hair

Hi everyone and Happy Tuesday!  I hope you are all having a wonderful week.  I have a fun card to share with you today so I'll get right to it.

I just love this image from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.  Unfortunately I believe she is retired, I'm so happy I scooped her up.  I made my Rapunzel brunette because I'm brunette.  I hope you don't mind :)  I stamped her onto Copic XPress paper and colored her with copics.  Here are the copics I used:

Skin: E000, E00, E21, E11, R20

Hair: E21, E25, E29

Dress and hair bow: V000, V01, V04, V06, V09

Crown: Y35, Y39, E18

Shadow around image: W2, W4, Blender

The DP is from an old Once Upon a Time mat stack from DCWV (I hoarded these when they came out :) ).  I distressed the papers with my scissors and lightly inked with SU Chocolate Chip ink.  The flourishes are from a Memory Box Die (it's called the Quinn Flourish) and I got it at Ellen Hutson).  I also added pearls, a bow, a lavender jewel (from Michael's) and a tag (also from Michael's, I found it in the dollar section, it's made by Studio G).  The sentiment came with the image.  Here are a few more pictures:

What do you think?  Well, that's it from me today.  Thanks so much as always for stopping by.  See you back here soon with a new project.  Hugs!

I LOVE this image.  This is the Saturated Canary Charmings Rubber Stamp and oh she was a dream to color, so much fun.  I inked her up with Memento Tuexdo Black Ink and stamped her onto XPress It Blending Card.  I of course colored her with my Copic markers.  Here are the colors I used:

I used MME Blush DP for my design paper.  I distressed it using my scissors and then used my Tim Holtz Blending Tool and SU Chocolate Chip ink to add some inking around my image and all my DPs.  I added some lace (which I also inked using my Tim Holtz Blending Tool ).  The embellishment in the middle of the bow is from Michael's.  The swirly embellishments were made using a Memory Box die.   The sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps.  Here are a few more views:
