Merci!

Wow, where do these weeks go? 
It's a pink Monday and a Stamp Annie Thing design team day for me, Barb from BugBites.
This week I am using the Stamp Annie Thing Ooh La La stamp set. The girl is so cute and there are many sentiments to go with it. 
I have a super cute pink and black Carta Bella paper pack that has some super papers in shades of pink, black and grey that inspired my design.

I used my copic markers and did some paper piecing for the stamped image. I then did a little piercing around the mat for a faux stitched look. My canine companion is popped up on two thicknesses of foam tape.
Thanks to Ann over at SVG Cutting Files, who created this Poodle file for me.  You can find the link to this sophisticated  canine file here.

The card is finished off with some pretty pink trim and bling.

This image and the sentiment are all part of the Ooh La La stamp set which you can find here.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hi everyone! Today I am super excited to share with you a peek of our latest stamp... MERMAIDS!
I just love the beach and sunshine...Im a Florida girl afterall, so it was inevitable that I would eventually have a Mermaid stamp!

This adorable stamp set contains the two mermaid images, some great little sentiments and some other small ocean/sea images. Possibilities are endless as to what you can created!
For today's release, I created a CAS card.
I figured Mermaids are magical creatures, so wanted to have fun with her coloring..and since green IS my favorite color...why not? 
I obvioulsy used the swimming Mermaid Stamp and the Sand Dollars too.
 I layered her on 2 Dies from Jaded blossom: the Layered Journal Die and the Bag Topper Die.  I pop dotted the sand dollar on the small dies in the Layered Journal Die Set.  I also added some fabulous Rumple Ribbon in Autumn Spice  and Trendy Twine in Orangesicle!

Here's the Dirt

He all, its Barb from BugBites and I have all the dirt for ya today. 

First off, it's Monday and my design team day here at Stamp Annie Thing. 
My card for you today was made using the super adorable little stamp from the Here's the Dirt stamp set. She is just so sweet she's got me smiling.

I used some country looking papers form a 6x6 paper pack. I paper pieced her outfit and colored the rest with copic markers. The sentiment is also from this stamp set.

I added some bling in the corners and a button with a twine bow.
You too can get this cutie patootie stamp by clicking here.

Now for the rest of the dirt....Stamp Annie Thing is releasing two new stamps sets later this week.
So mark your calendar and be sure to stop back in a couple days to see what's new!

Lucky Dog Treat!

Good morning! Melissa here to share a project for "a lucky dog".  The dog is from Stamp Annie*Thing's Dog Gone Cute Stamp set. I paper pieced the dog and shirt but colored his jeans with my Copic markers. A plain white bag was stamped with dog themed accessories from the stamp set and the bag is topped with a Bone Shaped Card from SVG Cutting Files.  To make the bag topper, just place the card over the top of your bag and punch two holes for some ribbon. I made this little present for my friend who has a "fur baby" that she brings to my house.. well, she brings that dog everywhere! He is a lucky dog!

Have a great day!

Hippity Hoppity ...

Good morning! Ruza here to share a card I submitted for publication that didn't get picked up. Now, I normally wouldn't be sharing an Easter card at this time of year, but my mojo is sorta missing. I've been struggling and didn't want to have you all go without today. So here goes ...


I absolutely love this bunny from the Bunny Hugs to You stamp set. You can either have a Girlie Bunny or a Masculine Bunny, and I obviously went Girlie with this one. I used the repetitive technique to create motion for her. The final image was colored with Copic Markers, and I paper-pieced the inside of the ears, the hair bow and her skirt.

Here's a look at the Bunny Hugs to You stamp set.


I hope you are inspired by today's project to head on over to Stamp Annie*Thing Store to check out all of the amazing stamps that we have to offer.

I'll see you on Monday, July 22nd, with a SUPER FUN post all about ... Hugs & Wishes.

Until next time ... Enjoy!
