Hobbit Houses Card

Good Friday evening blogging friends!
It has been a bit of a rushed week for me
DD2 graduated college - again - last night. 
We are so happy for her!

Maybe now she will get a job? mmmm,,,

Anyway,,,  today I have my DT project for Just For Fun Stamps
and this week we are working with a fun sketch as well as 
the new stamps that were released this spring.

Here is my card
My papers are from Bo Bunny, the sparkles are from Kaisercraft, 
inks are Tsukineko, Dusty Attic chippie, Prima flowers,
and the washi tape is Studio G. 
To color my image I used a handful of PITT® Pastel Pencils and
Art GRIP® Aquarelle Watercolor Pencils from 
Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft. 

I used Collaged Row Houses stamp for my image- but seriously,
they look like little hobbit houses, don't they? 
I have been waiting to use this stamp ever since it
showed up in the mail! Cute, cute, cute!!


Be sure to hop over to the 
some great work by the other talented
ladies on the DT. 

Thanks for stopping by today!

some really fun colors this week :o)

This is part two of my DD1s High School Graduation Day

this challenge! All my bling and my chipboard are from Want2Scrap.

 Prima and other flowers, Basic Grey brads, Chipboard from
Want2Scrap heat embossed with WOW embossing powder.
 Have you seen these butterfly blings from Wand2Scrap? Love them!

white embossing powder and heat set it.

Baby Jade's Graduation Day

Good afternoon blogging friends- how are you today?
I am taking this whole weekend to catch up on photo
editing and then I am going to create two new classes 
for the The Crafty Scrapper. I have the cutest new papers 
from Bo Bunny for a Texas theme album and Echo Park
papers for a Summer Fun book.

For today's layout I am using the newest ColourQ Palette
and I loved these soft, yummy colors!
 I have used Heidi Swapp, Stampin' Up, Jenni Bowlin, and Bazzill papers.
For my background I used texture medium over a Prima mask and let it dry.  I colored the dry paste with Banana Gelatos® from Faber-Castell® using a small piece of Cut N Dry sponge from Ranger. 
The canvas piece here is from Maya Road, stamp is CTMH, pearls from Want2Scrap, chippie is
Leaky Shed Studios,and flowers from my stash. 

I used my Cricut, a Cuttlebug die, and Fiskars punch.

Here is a look at the colors this week palette
You have until Monday the 13th, at Midnight to link up on the
ColourQ Blog for your chance to win.

Be sure to stop by and see all the DT projects too!

Here is a look at my layout
 My papers are MME and they are from older collections that I have hoarded been saving 
for a while. The fabulous rub-on in the corner is Creative Imaginations, who are now calling
themselves Splash of Color. What does that say about you when you have had
product so long that the company has changed their name??? mmmmmm

 Flowers are from Prima, some older some new. Brads from MME and Teresa Collins.

be a better place if everything was draped in pom-pom fringe.
Pink pom-pom fringe to be exact.
