Stamps for Sale

Just an FYI – I’m selling off a ton of old Stampin’ Up! sets on Etsy.  Almost all will be brand new, unmounted and never used, still in perfect condition in the original plastic boxes with all of the wood blocks included.  Shipping is included in all prices!  I’ll keep listing sets whenever I have time, so check back often if there’s a specific set you’re looking for.  I hope you find something you like!

Here’s my store: Stamps by the Ton.  TFL!!

Enjoy this day

Hi all!  I have a card for the Paper Smooches SPARKS challenge.  This week was a sketch.  Here’s what I came up with:

FlapHappy5

I used Flap Happy and the matching dies - Butterflies 1 and Butterflies 3.  The papers are from an old MME paper pad.  I hope you like it and TFL!

I’m no Odd Idol

Hi all!  I just wanted to pop in and show you my losing :( entry for the Odd Idol Competition Round 2:

OddIdol2b

It uses my fave quote, but I guess it’s not technically about friendship, so maybe that’s why people didn’t vote for me?  Anyway, I’m not upset.  I’m actually kind of relieved that I don’t have to stress out for 3 more rounds! 

Here’s a closer shot of Bookworm Tia (can’t link it up as I can’t find her in the Some Odd Girl store) that I didn’t get to show off during the competition:

OddIdol2c

She’s made up of 4 layers, all colored with Copics.  The layout behind her was done with Blueprints 1.  And here’s Tobie and his Dog (which I also can’t find in the store) who has 3 layers, all colored with Copics.  His layout used Blueprints 2.

Thank you to whoever did vote for me!!  I hope you appreciated the humor of the quote!  TFL!

Thanks a Latte

Hi all!  This is a reminder that you still have 1 week to play in the current All That Scraps challenge – Shaped Cards.  Here’s what I came up with this week:

LatteMonkey2

I used the super adorable Latte Monkey stamp and the Love You a Latte cutting set from Lettering Delights.  The image was colored with Prismacolor colored pencils and OMS and fussy cut out.  The card was cut with my Zing using Make-The-Cut.  The font is LD Little Piggy, the twine is from Papertrey Ink and the papers are from a My Mind’s Eye paper pad.

We hope you’ll play along!  Just remember that must use a C.C. Designs stamp, including - AmyR, Drozy's Darlings, Mashi's Muffins, Sweet November, Lil Lads & Lolitas & Webbie's Words.  TFL!

Happy Everything

Hi all!  It’s time for another Tasty Tuesday over at the YNS Blog.  Here’s our inspiration photo for this month:

TT005

I was inspired by the colors blue and pink, the clouds and the circles.  Here’s what I came up with:

HappyDaysSentiments3 

I used the Happy Day Sentiment Set, the snowflake, sun and leaf dies from the Whatnot Die Set – Seasons and a flower die from the Spring Garden Die Set.  I cut the circles from the pink panel with my Zing using Make-The-Cut and finished the card off with some sewing and sequins.

We hope you’ll play along!  All the details can be found on the YNS Blog.  TFL!
