It's There She Goes Tuesday once again!

And here is another card made with There She Goes April release stamp set Tweeterpated! This time I chose to go with a CAS card. It was hard for me not to add more stuff to it...but I have to bring myself to making these cards...not only are the simpler to make...but it makes a card more elegant looking and not so cluttered and busy like I'm used to...lol. This set is too cute because it's so versatile... Whatcha think?

I know...another short post. I'm just so brain cluttered that I really can't think! Let me do some brain Spring cleaning and you'll once again have my crazy posts...lol!

Supplies:
CS/DP: WWhite, Bazzil Bling Hot Pink & Summer Yellow (I name my own colors when I don't know the actual colors...lol!
Ink: RRose & SSaffron
Stamps: Tweeterpated
Embellishments: SU ribbon
Others: Spica Glitter pen clear

Hugs,
Gabby

There She Goes Tastes Like Chicken!

And according to my DH...it does! EWWWWW!!! He's actually had possum! *GAG* We have one that passes by in our yard on our brick wall and OMG he's sooooo creepy looking! His beady little eyes...*shivers*! Still I could use this possum to stamp! When I saw this set I initially wanted to use the possum for the sneak peek...but HAD to use the couch for piecing practice. I'm getting a bit rusty there! Anywho...I was googling possum pictures and came across one I had to use! It was of a possum in the middle of the road and apparently the ones who paint the street line dividers didn't bother moving it...or just thought they'd paint over it for kicks and giggles! I hope this card gives you the giggles! Please...no hate comments! From looking at some posts on SCS about this set...not everyone likes or even gets the humor to this! I'm the kind who loves humor...so this is so me and I so get it! LOL! This card is yet another try at my hand with Copics. Practice is needed...so be gentle with your comments! LOL! Notice how I made the LO to look like the road? LOL! Thanks to sketch challenge #220.
Embarrassed

There She Goes Blog Hop: Sneak Peek DAY 2!!!

Hello and welcome back to another day to the HOP! If you came to me from Faith's blog...you're on the right track! If not...then jump on back to the beginning to Jessica's blog to begin your hopping journey.


Today we'll be sneak peeking Tweeterpated! Say that 10 times! LOL! :P

The card I made for today's sneak peek just screams SPRING BABIES!!! I had a Spring baby almost 5 years ago and she is the sweetest little chiclet! Man where has the time gone??? It's no wonder I feel old! YIKES!

Anyways...lol...I decided to go with the neutral baby look for this card I made to sneak peek this set. You never know who's next of your friends or family to break the preggers news and chose to NOT tell the sex! Hey...it's happened to me and HATED being in a scramble to find a boy or girl card! This one here saves you the running around like a chicken with it's head cut off...lol! Right?

Man...this is when I wish I would have had some yellow flock to use for the baby chick! I chose to paper piece the eggshell instead of coloring it in. I had the baby chick colored a day before with ONLY the shell in white but then thought it looked a bit too BLAH...boring! Can you believe that dotted DP was in my scraps file? That's a big piece!! LOL! A little bling is ok for boys...right?

Ponder

This set is not ONLY for babies...it's also great for Spring and Easter! It is very versatile and not to mention...stinkin' cute! Whatcha think?

Want the chance to win this set? Well...all you have to do is leave a comment on all the blogs from point A to point Z and then head on back to Jessica's blog at the end of the hop and add your name to Mister Linky!

...notice the song playing? Yup...it's in tribute to Jessica's awesome store...There She Goes by Sixpence None The Richer! Tee hee!

Today we'll be sneak peeking Cupcake Mix & Match!

The card I made for today's sneak peek consists of something SUPER YUMMY that I know all stampers can't resist...a CUPCAKE!!! I don't know about you...but I can just TASTE the deliciousness...lol! Are you drooling already?
Tongue Out 1
I decided to go with the designer bakery cupcake look. See the shimmer? I used my now stuck to my hand Clear Atyou Spica pen! Check out the pearls too! Thanks to this set...now my little Lizzie wants cupcakes JUST LIKE THIS for her birthday coming up next month...she'll be 5! YIKES! This card though can be used for someone who's just recently gotten engaged or maybe even given birth to a sweet baby girl!!! Whatcha think?

I'm a guest Trendsetter for There She Goes!!!

Yes...that's what I've been bursting at the seems to share! Isn't it cool? Jessica is such a sweetie and her stamps are AWESOME! If you haven't checked them out or bought some...WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN??? Well I am seriously on cloud nine...but I'm also hiding underneath a rock because not ONLY will I be working along the side of her awesome Trendsetters...but I'll be making a guest appearance with none other than her BAD SELF...Sherry Cheever!!!
Faint
I feel like such a fan surrounded by celebrities!!! LOL! I need to compose myself!

If you don't receive the TSG newsletter...here is a passage from it from Jessica herself.

"I am so happy that Spring is finally here! It has been a long winter and I am ready for some nice weather and sunshine :)

We have some great stamp sets in store for you for this release and I know that you are going to fall in love with each and every one of them!

First, I would like to introduce to you our two fabulous Guest Trendsetters for the month of April.

All I have to say is "Her Royal Badness" and you most likely already know who I'm talking about.
Sherry Cheever has an amazing stamping style and she is always fun to take a walk on the bad side with ;) I am honored that she will be joining us this month and I can't wait to see what she has in store for us!

Gabby Arriaza caught my eye in the There She Goes gallery with her amazing creativity. Who would have thought that you could make chocolate covered strawberries with the heart images in Special Delivery?! I know that she is going to totally wow us with her great cards!

Welcome to the Trendsetters ladies, it's such a joy to have you on the team.

Interested in winning free stamps? Check out
this post on my blog on how you can win one of four There She Goes sets that are up for grabs by participating in our Going Away Party for the Trendsetters that will be retiring at the end of the month. This will also be the TSG challenge for this month! Please use the keyword tsg05 when uploading to the SCS gallery and add your name and link to the Mister Linky on this post."
