Meet Marci…

September 19, 2010September 19, 2010 Pam Sparks32 Comments

Marci with Rose is one of my favorites of this new collection from Lala Land Crafts HERE. She is so versatile, looks great in ANYTHING, and can be used for almost any occasion!

I stamped Marci on Papertrey Ink white card-stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink HERE and colored with Copic Sketch markers HERE. The background stamp is from the Magnolia Fairy-tale collection HERE, also stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink HERE and colored with Copic Sketch Markers HERE. I used a bunch of pinks and greens and blues and the grays are the N0’s. The little stamp running around the perimeter of the circle is from Technique Tuesday’s Irony clear stamp set. The sentiment is an old PSX stamp. The crystal chandelier garland is from Magnolia HERE. Both border punches are by Martha Stewart. The background rose stamp is from Printworks HERE, (email/phone Nicole for J1826 Antique Rose Pattern) stamped with Ranger Sea Shells Ocean Aqua dye ink. whew! did you get all that?!!! lol

I ♥ Recess and the Sweet Stop Sketch…

August 21, 2010September 2, 2011 Pam Sparks21 Comments

The option to add to the sketch at Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge blog this Saturday is “back to school”. I didn’t go with an apple or books this time but another favorite icon/subject… recess! Lala on a swing is delighted to be all dressed up in her new school clothes and enjoying recess!

I stamped her with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored her with Copic Sketch Markers. Skin, E000, 00, 01 and a diluted R20 & 000 combo. Hair, the E50’s, Dress, the BGO’s. Eyes, B41, 45. The paper is from Making Memories, the {note}worthy pack. The branch from Stampin Up is punched three times and combined. Flowers are the retro flower punch from EK Success, the Leone Em Ash Branch and a small leaf punch. The alphabet stamps I used to stamp the sentiment are from MaVinci.net and called “it’s just my type”. The little heart is from a PSX little desk set. I edged the papers with Antique Linen Distress ink and the Tim Holtz ink blending tool.

Challenge blogs I’m linking to… Colour Create, Pile it on – shapes

Happy Weekend to you! I’ll be seeing the family today so I always LOVE that!

discover your place in the SUN….

August 20, 2010 Pam Sparks23 Comments

Lucky from Lala Land Crafts HERE has found relaxing in the pool to be the place to be in the Sun! Isn’t this a great sentiment?! It’s new from Printworks. Order by email HERE or by phone. E4050 Discover Your Place is the code and name of the stamp.

oh wow! I can’t believe I’m finally posting this card… I fiddled with it forever and I’m still thinking it’s gonna be classified as a “do-over”!!! lol Just picked the wrong papers! Last time I used these papers I really liked the card! It’s HERE. The real kicker is the sketch I started out with and tried to stick to! I’m tempted to link to it anyway, just because I tried so hard! lol

The words “relax” and “enjoy” come with Lucky along with another sentiment. So fun to color… I used the E30’s and BG0’s for the pool.

Here’s the sketch from A Sketch for You to Try… yeah, if you tip your head to the left…maybe you can see it??? oh and sssstretch your imagination!!! lol I get a point for trying! lol

Happy Weekend to you and yours! Tomorrow is Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge post!
