Techno Stampers Sketch #300 - TSSC300

Aloha y'all... have been keeping busy here... house chores, and such... and planning our college tour trip to the mainland for my oldest son.  Our airline tickets have been purchased, so we are set to GO!!!  Anyways, I found some time to sneak in some paper crafting and created a couple of "Friendship" cards.   I was inspired to join in on this sketch challenge from Techno Stamper. Here is how the sketch looks like: 

Here's how my project turned out:

Geez, for the life of me... I can't remember what company this stamp is from.  I mean, I know it, it's at the tip of my tongue, but I just can't jot it down.  Duh!!!  Gonna have to post on FB and ask if anyone knows the name of this company. 

OK, just got info from my fellow crafty sister, Maria. She informed me that the name of the company is Pink Cat Studio.  LOL!!  Funny, it's been so long!!  Thank the Lord for social media, man!!  Stay tune... I have more Friendship cards to share this week....


Aloha and Blessings ~

Thank You Cards

Aloha All... so summer is right around the corner for the kids and I.  It looks like another busy summer, with the kids wanting to go to the beach and other "out of the house" activities, and then keeping up with the house chores, and dining.  I already know that it'll be fun, but tiring.  Looking forward to it. I hope I will be able to continue to blog and create.  Maybe I will have to make other arrangements, like staying up later than I have been lately. 

Well, here are 3 projects I have today.  All "Thank U" cards.  This was part of a card order that I did for one of my gf's last year.  This weekend the same gf is having her baby shower.  I am helping the host to make scrapbook page kits for her guests.  I have completed only 1 page kit.  I have to get on it, right?? 

This morning I woke up feeling a little dizzy, but not really sure what I was feeling, so I will call it "strange".  I thought that perhaps I didn't drink enough water as I have been recently, which is about 4Ls per day.  Yesterday, I only drank 1L.  So, I chugged down 1L this morning, and felt a little better.  I will have make an attempt to intake more water today. What a difference a day makes when you don't have that much water in your system. 

Well, time to start my day.  May you have a blessed one!!  Oh and "THANKS" for stopping by!!! 

Aloha, Jen

Pink Cat Studio - NEW RELEASES!!!

Hey!! I forgot that today is the day that Melissa of Pink Cat Studio releases 2 NEW stamp sets. 1st set is called Accessories For Lily & Billy. Set does NOT come with a Lily or a Billy, just the accessories. Here is the set, and some samples to follow:




Samples were created by PCS's DT.

Here is the other set, called Limitless Limbs Stamps .....honestly, when I 1st heard about this set from Melissa - she's the artist and owner of PCS, and she sent this info to me thru email, with no pics... so I thought the stamp images of this "Limitless Limbs Stamps" were going be of arms and legs with different positions for Lily n' Billy!!!! LOL!!!! What a dork.... Well, crack myself up to pieces when I finally got a look at what they were... see how us locals think... yea, I say locals, because I know if was you (yea, you know who you are) you would've thought the same as me.... cheeeee hooo...

Ok - here's how the stamp set looks like, and again, some samples from PCS's DT:

Aloha,

So Sassy!!!! & Sweet Candi Pieces Giveaway!!!

UPDATED!!! - Sroll down to see TAC stamp set that I am giving away...

How's this dog... she's so sassy, ya?! With her Coral Cameo fluffs, LOL!!! When I see this stamp, that's all I can think - that this is a sassy dog, full or grace. Kinda reminds me of myself.....NOT!!! I am sooo not graceful - LOL!! But before I go on n' on, let's talk about my card. The stamp came from Pink Cat Studio's "Dog" set, which can be purchased through Little C's. The sentiment is from TAC. You know, I really fell in love with TAC's sentiments. I always thought that they made different sentiments from everyone else out there. Now, check out the embossing on my BG. I got this idea from Sue Nelson of Heart Prints. I was reacquainted to her blog by Mama Wini. I love the way Sue uses her Cuttlebug embossing folders, she's got a lot of great ideas, and I just had to try them out for myself. Real easy, and really fun to do. The lines going across are from using my scor-pal. So, check Sue's web out, you will see what I mean.

Back to my card.....I'm creating some sample for my class on the 26th of July. And no, I didn't think up what projects to make yet. The class is CLOSED though, and so is ordering of kits. I've got a decent amount of attendees, and looks like we're going to have some fun. =0)

Now for my Sweet Candi Pieces giveaway.... hmmm - well, it's because I've reached 80,000 hits!!! Holy Cow, eh? I'll be giving away a TAC stamp set - I dunno, something I "earned" throughout the year, dunno what yet - I'll be back with a pic. (UPDATED: Photo of stamp set has been added - here it is). In the meantime... well, what do you need to do to get this free rubbah? Hmmm... ok, post a comment here, and tell me what your favorite thing about stamping is. It could be a technique, a color, or the way it makes you feel. Just say whatever. Ok, Good Luck to the winner!!!

Hugs,

Wishing You The Best....

Happy Monday Crafters....

I will be using the Pink Cat Studio "Dogs" set for my class scheduled on the 26th of July, so I'm creating some samples for that day. I still haven't thought of what projects to make... that'll come to me within the next 2 weeks, in the mean time, I'll be making samples using this set.

The paper is from 3 Bugs in a Rug. I love their paper. They are 65#, thick enough to my liking (Jo, you would LOVE these!!). Right now I don't have any 3 Bug's Paper available for purchase, but I will have them in a couple of weeks from now. I used Julee's sketch from her pdf book online (thanks Julee!!), and I was set!! I used Prisma Color Pencils (colors used was Sienna Brown, Carmine Red, Black and Lt Blue - hahaha, not showing in the photo, I must've missed it) together with Gamsol to color my image. The sentiment is from SU!, which I punched out using the 1-1/4" circle punch, and I punched out a stamped paw print from PCS's stamp set using my 3/4" circle punch. The ticket punch came in handy for the pink layer right under the circle punch. Then I cut a layer of black right behind the pink ticket punched cardstock. Grosgrain Ribbon is Pretty in Pink from SU! That doggie is such a cute cool diva. She's fab!!!

I haven't shared with you a photo of "today's Hawaii" in a while. Sorry about that. I just keep forgetting to add it to my postings. So... here I have a Bird of Paradise flower to share with you, which I took during my walk sometime last week. This is a pretty flower, I just wish all the other BOP's around it wasn't dead, or I'd be able to share with you a whole yard of it. Can you see why it's called a Bird of Paradise?! Pretty trippy, huh?!?!

Ok, have a great week...
