Its March Challenge time at the Some Odd Girl blog! We've got a simple sketch that you can have a lot of fun playing with. I decided to do a simple small sized card, its 3.25" x 3.5", and used the Mushrooms and sentiment from the Hey Kaylee Clear Stamp set and cut out the mushes with the coordinating cut file. I got to use something I got for christmas from my hubs on this card too....

Ok, I'm still so in love with that turtle lol. This is a little card I made for the Some Odd Girl catalog using the turtle from the Hey Kaylee 4x6 Clear Stamp Set. Its just a fun and simple shaped card I made using papers from AC, SC, & EP. Then Mr Turtle was stamped with Memento's Espresso Truffle and colored with Copics. I like that color of stamp ink, its not a harsh black but its...

This is a little card I did using the Nutsy Kaylee stamp set but with no image. Are you surprised? XD Its a really simple shadped card but I think its cute. The heart was stamped with Lady Bug Red Memento then colored over with YR04 to make it match the red-orange in the paper a bit more. Its also been popped up off the card with foam dots for added dimension. The papers are Studio Calico and...

Today I have a little card using Nouveau Girl Believe. When I was putting the bling on it I really thought Believe really looks like a fancy bride all dressed in her white with the flowers in her hair :) The papers for this card are MME and Believe is stamped with Memento on XPress It and colored with Copics. Here dress is colored with only 2 colors of Copics (BG70, BG93). I used and...

The challenge this time around at Some Odd Girl goes right along with our new release asking you to take inspiration from the artist who inspired the Art Nouveau movement, my fav of all time artist, Alphonse Mucha! Specifically his piece, Thistle in the Sands. I find his line work, flow and feel just amazing while having a graphic quality that appeals to me :) ANYWAYS lol. You might be...

This week's challenge at Some Odd Girl is all about the stitching! You know how a stitch in time saves 9? Well mine saves butterflies from fluttering off of my card :) The challenge is to make a project with alot of stitching! Make it a focal point! I went with a CAS design to highlight the stitching. An odd angle to shoot from but I like how it shows the stitching and the 3D effect of the...
