C.C. Designs Preview Day 1: CUTE BIRDS

Happy Tuesday everyone! We are on Day 1 of Previews for the MAY Release at C.C. Designs. The release will be available for purchase on May 2nd at 12pm CST. There are two adorable clear stamp sets with coordinating outline dies, and an awesome Clouds and Grasses Stencil!

Today, I'm showcasing this fabulous set called CUTE BIRDS. I stamped them on Xpress It Coloring Card with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored these cuties with Copic Markers. I then used the Cool Birds Outline Die to cut them all out.

Copics:

Blue Birds: B24, B26, B28, B29, E23, E11, C5, C7, C9, R22

Yellow Bird: Y06, Y21, YR21, YR23, YR24, C5, YR04, YR07, YR09, E19

Flower: RV02, RV04, RV06, RV09

Gold Sharpie Paint Pen 

To create the sky and grass, I used Distress Oxide Inks with the new Clouds and Grasses Stencil....so easy to create a scene using this stencil! 

Don't forget to head over to the C.C. Designs Customer Facebook Page and play along in all the games for a chance at a $20 Store Gift Certificate. Also, be sure to leave a comment on each DT post for ALL Preview Days linked on the C.C. Designs Blog because one lucky winner will take home the ENTIRE RELEASE!

StampingBella Guest Star Sunday: UPTOWN ZODIAC GIRL SAGITTARIUS

Happy Sunday everyone! I'm back today with my last post as the April Guest for StampingBella. I had an amazing time, and look forward to creating more StampingBella projects throughout the year. A huge THANK YOU to Em, Sandiebella, and all the ladies on the Design Team for giving me this opportunity and being so supportive! It's been awesome!

I love altering those cheap 8x8 wood frames from Walmart and Michaels. I knew when I was collecting the Zodiac Girls that I wanted to customize a frame for each girl. It's going to be a long process, but I can't wait to share each frame when they are finished! Since I'm a December 14th baby, I decided to start with Uptown Zodiac Girl Sagittarius.

 Copics:

Skin: E50, E00, E01, E11, E13

Hair: Black, C7, BG13

Dress/Boots: BG10, BG32, BG34, BG72, BG75, BG78

Gold Marker

After coloring the image, I painted the 8x8 frame with a couple of coats of Gold Metallic Paint.

 

 I found various zodiac and starry night digital papers on Etsy, and printed them off. Then I cut some 2" x 2" squares and 1.25" x 2" rectangles. I rounded the corners so they fit on the frame correctly. Next I cut out a 3.75" x 3.75" square piece for the center of the frame, and rounded the corners. I heat embossed the sentiment with Gold Embossing Powder. Then I added the glittery foam words and stars.

To finish off the altered frame, I raised Sagittarius on foam tape for extra dimension.

Be sure to head over to the StampingBella Store and grab your Zodiac girl....you're going to love her! These gorgeous girls are versatile for so many different occasions.

Have a great Sunday!

This would definitely be my dream world! The Happy Forever words are acrylic sticker letters that I also had in my stash.

Be sure to head over to the StampingBella Store and grab all of your faves. If you're like me you will want all the unicorn ones, LOL!

Have a great Sunday!

Happy Sunday everyone! It's Rosie here today sharing another card as Guest Designer for StampingBella! Some of my favorite stamps are from the Rosie and Bernie line....one because my nickname is Rosie, and two I absolutely LOVE unicorns!! When we went on vacation last summer to Europe, I brought a unicorn and took pictures so when I scrapbook them I can use these stamps. :)

This was us in Bled, Slovenia!

For my card today, I used Rosie and Bernie UP, UP,And AWAY. I stamped the image on X-Press It Blending Card and colored the image with Copic Markers. Next, I fussy cut the image and all the hearts out.

Copics:

  I knew when I saw this image I wanted to create a scene card, but I also wanted to include the awesome sentiment that comes with this stamp.....so Easel Card to the rescue! The papers are from Kaisercraft Cock-a-doodle Doo paper pad.

 I raised Rosie and Bernie on foam tape. Also, I raise some of the hearts on foam tape and glued the ones further away from the image onto the cloud paper.

Be sure to head over to the StampingBella Store and grab all of your faves. You definitely want to check out the NEW RELEASE too....they are fabulous!

I absolutely LOVE this set and think the animals are so adorable! Head over to the C.C. Designs Store to pick up yours today. Be sure to use my code ROSEB46 at checkout for extra savings! :)

 

I stamped the images on X-Press It Blending Card in a row and colored them with Copic Markers. Next, I added the sky and finally some grass at the bottom.

I stamped one of the sentiments several times, covering up the parts I didn't want to stamp with washi tape, so I could separate the words. I did add an "s" to the word "ewe" along with the exclamation mark.

 

 

  To finish it off, I turned an older C.C. Designs balloon die into speech bubbles, and raised them on foam tape.

 Grab all your favorites in the C.C. Designs Store today using code: ROSEB46 at checkout. You're going to have so much fun coloring these amazing stamps!

StampingBella Guest Star Sunday: Curvy Girl BESTIES

Happy Sunday everyone! I am so excited because I have the awesome opportunity to be a Guest Designer for StampingBella for the month of April!! It's a dream come true! I love all their stamps, and this stamp called Curvy Girl BESTIES is one of my faves. I think they are gorgeous and love how this stamp can be used for so many different occasions.

Copics:

Girl 1 Skin: E51, E00, E01, E02, E11

Girl 1 Hair: E42, E47, E49

Red: R24, R27, R29, R39

I colored these ladies to represent me and my bestie. I met her in high school in the late 1980s and we instantly clicked. Over 30 years later, we are still friends, and now live less than an hour away from each other! She is definitely my sista from another mista. I found this wooden friendship sentiment in my stash, and thought it would be perfect for these two ladies.

I stamped the sentiment from the Curvy Girl Besties stamp a couple of times and cut it apart. I distressed the edge of the paper with Black Soot Distress Ink, backed each strip with black cardstock, and raised each panel on foam tape. The two ladies are also raised on foam tape. To finish it off, I added black enamel dots in the corners.

Be sure to head over to the StampingBella Store and grab some of your faves. Also, a NEW Release is coming on Monday, April 8th so tune in to see all the awesomeness!!

Have a great Sunday!
