Sneak Peak #2 with CAS-ual Friday

Black and White and no other color - not even a speck! That is the challenge over at CAS-ual Friday this week.  It is so hard to not add just a tinny whinny bit of color!  But, I remembered a new stamp I just got.  It is one of the stamps in the new Close to My Heart's 2012 Spring/Summer Idea Book which is due out February 1.  This is one of those stamps that was 'love at first sight' and from that point on I knew it was a "HAVE TO HAVE".    I've been so busy this past week, tonight was the first time I got to pull it out and give it whirl.

Here is my Black and White ONLY card!


Cool isn't it?  I love it!  This stamp is called "Fashionista".   There are 4 different girls on this set and they are all Shopping Fashionistas!  I used only one girl on this card - you'll have to wait until February 1st to see all four lovely ladies! 

Fashionistas should stand out, so I stamped the her on a separate sheet of cardstock and cut her out.   Then I used foam tape to make her pop her up.  Can you see my Bitty Sparkles?  I added one to the shopping bag and one to the neckline of her shirt.  The ribbon is from the Designer Ribbon Round Black Collection.  This is a retired item but can still be found on our "While Supplies Last" section of my website.  You get 4 feet of six different black ribbons for only $4.00.

January SOTM - Sweet Little Things Blog Hop

Welcome to our January Stamp of the Month Blog Hop . In this blog hop we are featuring Sweet Little Things.  This set includes 10 images! If you arrived here from  Maureen's Blog you are on the right track. This hop is a big circle. Just look for the next blog link at the bottom of my post. If you are just getting started on the hop, when you get back to me you will know you have completed the circle! If you get lost along the way, you can find the entire list of hoppers  HERE .   The cute little bear image made me think 'slimline' so I stamped him on a piece of White Daisy cardstock with Intense Black ink and then colored him with my Tri-Blend Markers.  I stamped the sentiment along the bottom and added an extra patch of flowers. To add a little interest to the card, I drew dashed lines to give the impression that the little bee has been flying all around the card!  I also added a few bitty sparkles. Products Used: Slimline Cards & Envelope...

The colors in this collection just pulled me in!  They are so bright and fun.   I spent a Sunday afternoon just creating with it!  Here are a few of the things I created: This layout was inspired by one of the layouts in the Craft With Heart Subscription!  I cut the cardstock squares 3x3 and the pattern papers are 2 1/2 x 2 1/2.  To fill in some of the 'white pace' I stamped the splatter image from Perfectly Imperfect Patterns (one of my FAVS!) and Capri Ink. I colored ...
