Here is my completed card. You can call it CAS.

I kept thinking of the cheerleader photos from high school...

not mine of course, I had a choice of going to cheer camp for the summer

and spending about $500 on that or earning some money with my love of 

visual arts at the Richmond Art Center. The art center won but I do love 

choreographed dancing too so I did that during the school year just not as cheerleader.

Coming back to Copic markers and I even used some

ZIG Wink of Stella pens my angel friend BreAnn, now in heaven gifted me last Christmas. 

I used GI. Yellow because it has a golden shimmer and GI. Blue 

which were perfect in making my Trudy be 

a Golden State Warriors cheerleader. 

I have to rep The Bay okay!  

Everybody say Warriors! 

"Warrrrriors!!!"  

The stickers of the hoop and basketball are from Michael's 

and sorry I misplaced the packaging.

Stamps will be available in the store Friday!

Thanks for joining us for our December Release

Have a great day!

A Cheerful Christmas with Brooke Panda

Hi Everyone!

Hope you are all enjoying the season even if it's cold and wet... and for those that are enjoying nice warm or hot days I'm so not talking to you. LOL   Juuuuuust kidding... just a little bit jelous :P


I intend to do at least one card a day but I think I'm getting a bit in over my head... yesterday I didn't get to be on my computer too long. When I got back home with the kids we ate, did some homework and I was too sleepy to do anything crafty plus I was freeeezin.'

Okay on to my card- I used:

Brooke Panda

I used the super cute Doodlebug Design 

6x6 paper pad called Sugarplums. 

I colored Brooke Panda with my Prismacolor Pencils

sorry guys I didn't keep note of all of my colors this time 

because I was working on and off with this one.

I did the "no lines coloring" again

which simply just means that you stamp or print it with a very light color.

This way I was able to color in the iris. Besides adding a nose

the lines weren't changed and are not supposed to.

You can click on this link and you can see

Brooke Panda with regular stamping and with Copics instead of pencils:

Here is a close-up. 

I hope you like her. I loved coloring here even thought I had to 

stop so many times in between.

Anything Goes

On the First Day of Christmas

Hello Everyone!

It's December and Christmas is here! Woot woot! Happy First Day of Christmas! So this post will be short and sweet... if I don't think of random things to ramble on about. LOL

Anyway, I am in dire need of Christmas/Holiday cards and so I'm digging through my stamps... I have a whole bunch but for some reason I get into this weird thing that I have to turn a non-holiday stamp into a holiday stamp. LOL     Anyway, here is my card.

I used Liberty - for a Super Girl!

I have turned a super girl into Elsa from Frozen. LOL  

 I know I had neglected my Prismacolor pencils for a very long time.

So here you go. 

Oh and another thing I took notes of my pencils... aren't you proud of me? LOL  

skin: PC927, PC943, PC1084, PC928, PC929

eyes: Uni-Ball Signo Pen Broad, Sakura Gelly roll, PC903, PC904 and PC935

Dress: PC992, PC905, PC938 and Clear Star Sakura Stardust pen

Hair: PC941, PC997, PC 914 and PC938

whooo!!! That was too much typing. LOL    

The sentiment is from The Greeting Farm.

 I couldn't get a good photo of the shimmer in her dress and shoes 

but you can see it a little.

Here is a close up. 

Oh yea here is the original image. 

I hope you like my card. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Here is my completed card using Audrina

OMG! I used way more glitter than I'm used to and I still have glitter in different spots of my desk and floor but I love the way my card came out. I might have to make a video and show you all just how glittery and shimmer it is sometime in the near future. I colored Audrina with Copic
markers, Copic Spica glitter pens and Sakura Gelly Rolls.
The background is a combination of embossing powders and loose glitter.
As you can see it's pretty much a two-tone card. I used mostly Earth (E's) and Yellow (Y's)
Copic markers to give a warm golden look
BUT I did use a tad bit of R20 and R30 for rosey cheeks, tongue and nose.
The trees in the background are from
Whimsy Stamps called Christmas Scene Builder
I hope you like my golden winter wonderland card using
the super cute stamp.

Here is my completed card.

I love Pandas! They are so adorable! Here I placed my card with a pin I've had since I was a toddler- I even crossed the border wearing this pin on my sweater when I was 5 years old... 

Talk about Panda Express. LOL    The little ring holder is a gift that my friend and coworker Helen, got me from China, where she's from and gets to visit often. 

Anyway, on to the coloring. I colored up Brooke with Copic markers. I colored her up in traditional black and white Panda colors but since it's a birthday card I made it look a little more festive plus it's for a person that loves rainbows. You can check out Vanessa's blog here: Slightly Twisted Butterfly. I colored her Ugg boots brown just to not make it too matchy matchy... Know what I mean jelly bean? Ummm Oh yea I colored the background using the distress ink mini's to create a sort of painted rainbow then I sprayed water and dried it up with the heat tool.

I then used the I'm Nerdy stamp set to add smiley faces to the background.

I used a die from Happy Thoughts Stamp Set from My Creative Time.

The birthday sentiment is from James- Happy Birthday to You

Felicity - October Day #3 Release

 

Hi and welcome to day #3 of Stamp AnnieThing  Release! 

This release is all about being a hipster and trendy, so without further ado, here is...

Frappuccino loving Facility - Hello

Just like all the hip and trendy kids, Just loves to grab a frappe

and go go go!!!

With the cute black out hello word bubble, she is a great little 

stamp for every day occasions!

Felicity available in the store now along with other 2 stamps

we showcased this week!!!

Check out the awesome creations the Stamp AnnieThing Design Team made  with the Frappuccino Loving Felicity - Hello

Here is my card

 This is for my daughter's teachers so I gave her a little more 

grown up look by adding a little lipstick and eyebrows.
I colored her with Copic markers I used some digital papers that I thought
would be so perfect with Felicity. 

I typed the quote but of course you can use it the sentiment with any of the Stamp AnnieThing

images. I used Felicity's the hello sentiment for yesterday's James card. 

I stamped Felicity inside with Memento Dessert Sand to make it 

look like a watermark. 

"Today I will 

make dreams

happen...

but first, coffee!"

 I saw this quote on a mug and thought it was funny

but appropriate to give to a teacher... 

(don't want to get in trouble for certain typed of humor) LOL  

Like yesterday's card I added glossy accents to make

the frappe cup look like shiny plastic. 

All of the stamps we showcased this week are available in the store today!!!

Thank you for joining us for our October Release.

Have a Great Day

 I wanted to look like an iMessage with the blue bubble with white text.
My mom knits sometimes and so does a crafty friend named Trish. She lives waaaay up in Canada...
I was thinking of her and her son when I made this card. She is a cool, strong and trendy
single mother that loves to craft especially knitting/crocheting all sorts of stuff.

I handwrote "Hi Mom" for his iMessage

I added glossy accents on top to create the cool iPhone look. ;)

I was up all night creating this card but I had so much fun doing so. LOL   

Also, I said I enjoy creating scenes but with all of the details in the coloring...

I think it packs a lot of punch. (Is that how the saying goes? LOL )
