Spring Cleaning…(did I say that?!)

Pam Sparks15 Comments


My card for Inky Impressions Challenge #35….

yep, that time of year… I always find myself thinking when I’m cleaning…some kind of rescue mechanism!  I end up stopping and going to do what I thought of and then who knows when getting back to cleaning….been a long pause around here! lol

I used Lili’s Cleaning Day rubber stamp from Inky Impressions Rubber Stamps…I’ll tell you a secret…ha! you probably already know!  I colored the dots on her shirt with a white signo/uniball gel pen,  let them dry and then colored right over them with the pink copics!!!  Didn’t even have to go back and wipe off the white…the dried white ink repelled the copic marker perfect and made for easy coloring!

  • Lili is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink (want a discount on your Inky Impressions order? Join us at the Inky Yahoo Group for details – link to the yahoo group is on the challenge blog)
  • colored with Copic Sketch Markers
  • K &Co. pattern paper
  • Bazzill card-stock
  • Martha Stewart Spring border punch – little butterflies are from this Butterfly border punch
  • Quickutz 4×4 flower die (a bunch on here and I layered them up)
  • Sizzix leaf branch (came in a set of four,  the medium size sizzlets)
  • Sentiment from Wordsworth
  • Itty Bitty 3 mm brads by Bazzill
  • background stamps from Cornish Heritage Farms
  • EK Success oval punch for the rug

A Spoon Full of Sugar Challenge this week is cute and girly…well,  Lili is all of that!

Paper Take Weekly Challenge this week is “Say it with Flowers”… that’s the challenge for Inky Impressions also…using the word FLOWER

Stampavie and More Challenge this week is Flower Power

Happy Wednesday….one more post coming at you in a little bit!  So much cute new stuff…I could stamp and color 24/7!!!

Nickie’s Birdie from Inky Impressions…

Here’s a new super cute image to color by Inky Impressions… I loved coloring Nickie’s Birdie but I have never tried so hard to get a good photo in all my card creating life!  lol   Her shoes are sure cute in red!  I still remember the pair of red shoes I had in eleventh grade…oh,  I LOVED those shoes!

Maybe this close up will show the detail a little better….I hope! ugh!

Nickie is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Sketch Markers.  I used the elongated rectangle nestabilities dies….I really use that size a lot…it surprises me! The border punches are from Martha Stewart, I just used the lattice part of the deep edger….pattern paper is Quite Contrary from My Minds Eye.  I made the flowers with Nellie Snellen punches.  The sentiment “a little birdie told me” is from Hero Arts.

I made this to play in the Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge Blog this week… a fun sketch,  although with just using the corner of the scallop 12×12 paper,  I had to take a little liberty with the sketch.

Thanks for stopping by ….Happy Weekend!

Pink….Lilli loves pink! So, I colored up this Lili (leelee) Fairy from Inky Impressions in ALL pink! I think she’ll like it!  I hope, she’ll love it!  The challenge right now at Inky Impressions Challenge blog is to use pink and hearts…gonna link up but I don’t have any hearts on here! bum…oh well,  we know these images are all “heart”! lol  Papertake Weekly Challenge blog is predominantly pink…well,  I nailed that and Cute Card Thursday’s challenge is fairy fantastic!

Here she is close up…SOOOOO CUTE! I love these Inky Lili stamps!

She is stamped with Memento Tuxedo black ink and colored with copic sketch markers.  This is my first time to try the flourishy bling!  very cool!  I am surprised how easy it was to manipulate and get it in the right place!  I uesd the Spica clear glitter pen on her wings,  it’s so subtle,  the camera missed it! lol  I love the look IRL though…just the right touch.

The flowers are Nellie Snellen punches and embossers…very cool and available for pre-order at 7KidsCollegeFund.com.  They are from the Netherlands.

Here’s what I did inside…

There’s that Martha Stewart crown around the page corner… I used the border and corner punch set on the front.  The sentiment stamped on the front,  “Bright Wishes” and on the inside, “for a Birthday that outshines all the others“, in Versafine Onyx Black ink,  is from Printworks….tons of great birthday sentiments here... check out their clear stamp sets too….some of their images are available in both wood and clear!  I used the Stampamajig to get the placement of the Bright Wishes right where I wanted it on the front. Pearls are from Hero Arts.  Teeny brads on the front are from Bazzill (coming soon to 7Kids).  I think I purchased  the little silver things under the brads at JoAnns.  Thinking the ribbon is May Arts.
