I would hope that you find some inspiration in all the amazing projects you will see today over at Crafty Sprouts. Today we go to use Bugaboo digi stamps I used Elf pocket-and  found  inspiration from this:

I loved the colors of the red and white! So I whipped this up... I used core dinations cardstock in blush red, butons form Jenni Bowlin studio in pearl.

 The set I used is "Have a Cool Yule"  all stamps this week are 12.50 with free shipping!!! Dont you deserve an early Christmas Present?- I think so!!!

Here is a closer picture of the little elf. I colored him twice and cut out the pocket a second time to pop it up- Please come on over to Crafty Sprouts and join in with us for the challenge! I would love to come by and see what you have made!!!

Bout time!!!

oh geeze- my internet has been down all day and I have had so much to do!! Doesn't it always work that way? Well its up now, so I thought I would show you all the card I made for the Peachy Keen Sketch Challenge
I used PK- 490 Everyday Character Face Assortment 1/2 "I put a little chalk on the cheeks, a added a little white gel pen, and some MS glitter glue to the candle. I followed the sketch for the design and used a re-cycled Starbucks coffee sleeve for the cupcake wrapper and the top underneath the Bo Bunny ribbon. The sentiment is from Crafty Sprouts "Smile On" set!

Tips for Tuesday

Happy Tuesday everyone! Im  SO excited!  I am  a guest designer  at My-O-Scrappin for my friend Shannon- on Tuesdays she has a tips day. You should check it out. We were talking this past weekend and she asked me if I would like to share a tip today! So here is my tip, need to add a little color to your project? Missing  a little something, but dont have the right bling color? Do you have a regular colored  pearl? Well pull out your Copics and color one to match your design! I tried this the other day and just loved the result! You will too!

One more try with the craft room video

I changed the setting- let me know if it works now!! So Sorry- like I said my first one! Feel free to Fast forward!!

**Warning** I just want to let you all know this is my first video- Now I feel like a Gigantic Windbag. Just be warned. Tthere is a lot of annoying talking and no editing!!!! Yikes! Maybe I can talk one of the big kids into teaching me how to edit... but they are not home...Anywho- I thought I would show those of you some of how I can keep all my supplies and share this room with all 4 of my kids. It really is the hang out spot here and the couch is very well loved. They all hang out on the couch and use the desk area for homework when we are not crafting :) If you want to know how I store a certain item away from the kids, just ask... Ill take a pic for you.

(It was pretty easy to do). Then I used a Peachy Keen face- PK-521 Winter faces 1 1/8"  colored it and chalked the cheeks.. punched a hole in the top of the tag with my big bite, and added a fun ribbon trim.
