I'm on a roll...

...after some nice sleep after my caffeine binge...lol...I am on a roll and I managed to make some stamping time for 3 cards! These cards featured today are for Stamps & Smiles first sketch promoting their new line of stamps. Head on over to S&S blog to enter to win some stamps! Check out my entries for the sketch!

First is this card I not only made for the sketch challenge...but I also made it for my soon to be 10 year old DS who LOVES cupcakes especially with sugar crystals...lol. Check out how I freehanded some arms in...LOL! Oh...and one even took their hand off the top cupcake to hold a banner!!! Thanks cuppy cake! LOL! Could you believe I am being good using my scraps? Yup...this DP was in my scraps! I also JUST REALIZED today that I had that blue/aqua textured CS in my CS/DP cart! I bough this CS about 2 years ago on eBay!!! Dang do I know how to hoard...or forget to use the good stuff...lol! Now...would you eat such cute cuppy cakes? YUM! LOL!

Prismacolor Markers used:

Supplies:
CS/DP: WWasabi, , DP vendor unknown (from my scraps), Textured CS from unknown vedor (from hoarded pile), & Bright White
Ink: BBlack, BGray, & Prismas
Stamps: Stamp A Sweet Impression by Taylored Expressions (link on my sidebar)
Embellishments: Diamond Stickles & flatback bling
Others: oval Coluzzle



Next is this OH SO SWEET Miss Anya! She was inspired by LV in her "before she became a rocker chick" stage. I use to dress her in pinks with ribbons in her hair and what not. Man I miss those days. BUT...I still got Lizzie to play "pinky dress up" with. Can you believe my LV is gonna be 13 on Sunday??? Yup...I'll officially have a teen! Let the gray hairs start flowing! No...she's a good girl...just not my girly anymore. Another thing I was hoarding were these cute rub-ons! What was I thinking? I've spent too much money to heard! That DP...yup...also in my scraps pile! *rolls eyes* Anywho...whatcha think? I'm actually proud of myself and patted my back...lol. Check out the cute pearl frame! Ok...this is so sweet I shall say myself that I am getting a tooth ache! Sorry to toot my own horn...I'm just very proud of these cards being that I'm not feeling 100% well.
Tomorrow I'll show ya card #3!!! It's a DOOZY!!! It's LV's 13th birthday card made with stuff she just LOVES...you'll see what I mean! *wink*

"He Was A Sk8ter Boi...

...she said see you later boi! He wasn't good enough for her!" If you're singing along with this that means you know Avril Lavigne's Sk8ter Boi song! YEAH! LOL! Just look at what I got myself into! This card was made for Marie's sketch challenge over at The Greeting Farm blog for some candy! Awesome sketch Marie...it took me out of my "box" when it comes to LO's! I've NEVER done anything slanted...lol. Well...not that I can remember! Hmmm... Anywho...isn't he just the cutest? Who wouldn't want this sk8ter boi? LOL! Ok...funny story about the "city" behind Ian. Well...I was thinking...'should I or should I not?'...well I drew it in with pencil first to see how it looked and then showed my DS! He is just an AWESOME artist and is my drawing critic...so when he said it was "OK" and to go for it...I made it permanent! LOL! I listened to a soon to be 10 year old and I LOVE the outcome! Yes...TOOT TOOT...I am tooting my own horn! :P WHAT? LOL! It sure was a challenge for me to say the least! OH...I even drew an awesome "pavement" but realized it was too late when I layered on the "grass"! *sigh* A waste of "art" gone behind CS! Oh well...leasson learned! LOL...ALWAYS LOOK BEFORE YOU PASTE!!! What do you think?


HAPPY SUNDAY!!!
