Simon Says Stamp Challenge : Animal Antics!

Well, as you well know, I'm ALL ABOUT Antics! HA! That being the case, I was just fine with tossing some cute animals into the mix for this week's Simon Says Stamp Challenge!

I decided to play with the brand new Carta Bella Paris Girl collection for my fun card today.


I used both the papers and the stickers from the 12 x 12 Collection Kit and I love the gorgeous texture! So nice and easy to bring it all together and SO CUTE!


So now it's YOUR turn! Go find some animal cuteness in your stash and be sure to link up to Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog for your chance to win a $50 Gift Certificate to the Simon Says Stamp Store!

Jingle Out!

Kokeshi Christmas

Well, it's time for another Friends With Flair Friday, and to be honest, I had planned to skip it this time around because this week was so busy, but last night I got a chance to play and I had an idea for this card so I just couldn't resist creating it!



I used the Kokeshi Cuties set by Samantha Walker for Unity for this card. I first stamped the Kokeshi doll and then masked her to stamp the fan behind her head. I LOVE the way that turned out! So fun!



She is colored with Prisma Color markers blended with OMS. The sentiment sticker is from SRM Press and the ribbon is, of course, May Arts.

And the cuteness...well, that's just from that ADORABLE LITTLE DOLL!!!!! No, really...how can you look at her and not smile? You can't. K. Thanks.
