Hello Everyone and Happy Tuesday to you all! Thanks for coming by today!  I have some news to share...

I am the proud new leader of Creative Card Crew!  Our dear Paula has decided that it is time for her to bow out for a much needed rest and she asked me to take over.  It is a huge honor and responsibility and I'm excited to be the one to do it! 

So for our challenge this time, we wanted to see easel cards!  Linda W chose this fantastic idea!  And our sponsor this week is the fantabulous:


and the prize is a $15 gift Certificate




Excited yet?  You should be!  So here's my card:

This is Beach Baby Jayme by Crissy Armstrong for Whimsy Stamps.  It's a FREEBIE DIGI at the Whimsy store!  I colored her with Copics and the papers are from DCWV "Linen Closet."  The ticket sentiment is also from Whimsy Stamps.  Thanks for stopping by and please visit all of the super talented DT for more Whimsy fun!

Stamping on Fabric

So I decided to experiment.  I had this plain apron that I had intended on decorating.  Today was the day!  I used my Alota Stamps cake.  I stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black.  I colored with Copics. It did bleed slightly...thus the shading...lol!  I hand wrote "eat cake."  Hope you like it! 

Challenges:
Cute Card Thursday- Anything but a square (not a card, does it count?)
YNS- Buttons (3 tiny ones in center of cake's flowers...didn't photo well!)
Allsorts-Buttons

Whimsy Inspirations

Hello! Thanks for stopping by today! This is a card I posted for Whimsy Inspirations.  This is the Woodland Fairy by MelJen Designs Fairy Tale Collection for the Whimsy Digital Collection.  I colored her with Copics and highlighted with white gel pen.  The flowers are felt and I added a rhinestone flower to the center of the solid flower.  The "stitching" is a combination of free hand and a border stamp. The branch punch finished the flowers.  I also added a rhinestone brad to her dress for a little more sparkle.

In the second photo, you can see the sentiment is a pullout tab.  The sentiment is from Raindrop Echo Designs for Whimsy and it is a rubber stamp set.  I used a new EK Success label punch for the backing. Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you stop by Whimsy for more inspiration!  Have a great day!

Cupcake Craft: Dazzle Us
Pollycraft: Ribbon and bling
Sketch and Stash: Sketch (I used scrap cardstock from my stash to do all of the layers)
Challenge Up Your Life: Critter cratters and bling (I'm guessing on the critter cratters!)
