I think this stamp set is super precious and will definitely use it tons of time for little boy cards! For today's card, I use many accessories from the stamp set, along with the Card Front Element Builder III die that was released in August, a must-have in a cardmaker's stash IMO.
I feel like I've not been blogging for a while, although things did happen over here over the summer, but I had them scheduled a long time ago, eheh! Anyhow, there's something BRAND new in town, for SugarPea Designs!
We’re so pleased to be sharing in the excitement of STAMPtember with our friends at Simon Says Stamp! Today we’re thrilled to share with you a stamp set created exclusively for this event and only available while supplies last, called Cuddly Cati!
There is also a coordinating die set and you can purchase them as a bundle or separately!
For my card, I couldn't decide which image to use, so I went with a bunch of them instead, AH! I stamped them all with Raven hybrid ink, then coloured them with Copic markers and fussy cut with sharp scissors. Next, I created the A2 cardbase by folding a 4 1/4"x11" piece of sturdy white cardstock in two from the top. Then, I die-cut the largest of the Elements Build-A-Card die set from SugarPea Designs with a lovely tone-on-tone yellow patterned paper from the Whatever The Weather paper pack by SugarPea Designs to stack directly on my card front. I used the second largest Elements die to cut a lovely scalloped rectangle from white cardstock and glued it to the card front with foam tape, for more dimension. Then, I smoothly inked my favourite colours of Oxide Inks (Carved Pumpkin, Spun Sugar and Picked Raspberry) right in the center, added all the images with foam tabs, and a white-on-navy embossed sentiment. Easy peasy!

I'm thrilled to be part of STAMPtember at Simon Says Stamp today because, you've all guessed it, SugarPea Designs is doing an entirely EXCLUSIVE set just for this! Woot woot!
It features the cutest koalas you'll ever see, paired with a bunch of fun sentiments and a few accessories. Not a fan of fussy cutting? Don't worry, Simon Says Stamp has a coordinating set of dies
Now, from past experience, I would say HURRY and place your order RIGHT THIS VERY MOMENT because last year's set was as cute as this one and it went out-of-stock in a couple of hours only! It will only be available while supplies last.
So today's project features a koala and its baby, that I stamped twice, in order to represent a family. Catchy, right? I thought they were too cute not to use them this way AND I also have a christening coming up, so basically two birds one stone ;-) But you get the idea why you MUST order this set, because it's super-duper versatile!
Oh and make sure to hop over the SugarPea Designs blog to see what the design team did to celebrate this awesome collaboration with Simon Says Stamp for STAMPtember !

I'm hosting the new challenge over at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps and I thought I would go easy on you, with a Clean and Simple theme! I used the lovely mermaid Serena Sparkles, who is now back in stock (woohoo!). To achieve this look, just stamp her in your favourite light ink (mine is Desert Sand from Memento), colour her with your markers, add some itty bitty flowers on the coral rock, and stack the coloured piece on a piece of pattern paper that covers the entire shape of your card. Voilà!
Psssssst! Can you spot the same colours from my Ah! La Carte kit that was used up to the very last bit? Ooooooh, yes ;-)
Here's my weekly inspiration post for La-La Land Crafts, this time featuring the theme all about KRAFT!
I absolutely loooooove using kraft cardstock, as you may have noticed already! And since I wanted to make something out of my comfort zone, I challenged myself to create a scene using dies solely, around Paper Doll Marci- Witch, which was released this summer.
One of the first things that impressed me when I saw these cuties was how they looked fabulous and TALL! I didn't want to hide them in any ways when making the card, so I went with a 4"x5.5" shape, angled a second panel of patterned paper to accentuate it, added a few buttons here and there, but mostly kept the main focus on the girls and their fabulous sentiment.
I'm thrilled to host this Anything goes challenge on the Kraftin' Kimmie stamps blog! As I'm trying to do more and more CAS (clean and simple) cards, I've also decided to challenge myself using watercolouring in multiple ways. Today's card is a great example of how versatile your stamps can be from one technique to another! I used two sets from my awesome friend Becky, the flowers coming from the Buds & Blooms set, while the gorgeous sentiment is from the Let Your Light Shine set. Keep your eyes open for more watercolouring tutorial on the KKS blog soon ;-)
I had a few kitty commissioned cards to make and while they're all heavily embellished, I was feeling for one of my own to be all clean and simple. So I fussy cut one of the Cuddly Critters designed by Kristina Werner for Simon Says Stamp that I had watercoloured with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers during the Daily Marker challenged hosted by Kathy Rac.
