Ok, this is officially my fav card for the week :) I just love how bright it is and had a lot of fun with it. I used Tia, the crab and sentiment from the Beach Day Buddies set being featured today on the Some Odd Girl blog along with the cloud stamps from the Sunny Mae set and the stitching stamp from Thank You Mae. I got in a few new colors of Memento Dew Drops and find had at it lol. I need...

Sunny Mae comes with everything to make you able to create your own sunny day. heh, love the pun with her.

Its release day! :DD There's been a lot of requests for some Mermaid stamps and I had SUCH a hard time staying mum as I've been sitting on these and couldn't spill! :3 I was fit to burst yo! The Odd Girls have a lot of inspiration on the Some Odd Girl blog today so make sure to check it out! I had a lot of fun coloring her but it took me a couple tries to figure out how I wanted to do her...

Today's fairy is Mushroom Fairy. Sketching one night I came up with her and its what set off the whole Fairy release this month as she needed to be in the store :) I love the idea that, if you've ever seen the Tinker Bell movies, that the fairies have to make their clothes and stuff from what they find around so when I draw them I try and do that. They just seem a bit more "real" that:)...

Today's fairy is wee Dandelion Fairy :) I'm kind of in lve with her though I'm not exactly sure of the reason overall lol. Maybe I just wish I had a petal dress? That could be :3 But either way I hd a ton of fun coloring her! I played her some more with the V20, V22, V25 to shade my skin combo of E00, E02, E11 and I'm still really happy with it. You can get a nice graduation of color in the...

Release day! I hope you all like this latest installment of the fairies line we started a couple of months ago. The fairy that will be up on Wednesday got the whole ball rolling on this entire release. It took the direction to some younger fairies and I cant help but to like their spunky spirit :). I have a couple of sketches to share later this week of 2 fairies that didnt make the cut too....

I have a new Speed Coloring video to share with you today! This is the one I mentioned was coming on Monday, my Black & White coloring of Royal. The original time was 45 minutes but I shrunk it down to 10. This is my first time coloring a B&W image, and like I mentioned Monday it really makes you think alot about contrast, color, shadow and highlight. I totally recommend it if you'...

Today we are revealing Renew. Poor Renew here has gone thru a series of names before me settling on one (more out of time constraints than anything else lol). She totally reminds Melissa of Pride & Prejudice and I can totally see the vibe! She looks like she's simply climbed a grassy knoll and set herself down in the grass to soak up the peace and quiet. *inhale... exhale...* That feel is...

Today is Release Day! :DD I'm always excite when its time to release some more stamps (the clear especially bc there's so much more work involved) but for some reason these 2 have stolen my heart. When I draw up a design, they seem to take on a life of their own so I end up talking about them like they are their own person/animal/thing. That may seem kind of weird but that's just how I;...
