Ahoy there Matey!

Happy Thursday everyone! I'm back with a fun Pirate Luka card for you all today from LaLa Land Crafts. My little Jackson turned 2 just under 2 weeks ago now, and he had a pirate party! I had colored this Luka to use for that, but then ran out of time to do more...so I finally created a card with him this week!

I colored Luka with my Copics, then I used some MFT mini bradlets for the buttons on his coat. Don't you just love them?? The fabulous paper is again from the SU! Newsprint DSP pack (thanks Michelle for helping me out!!) and the layout is this week's Sketch for You to try from Jen del Muro. Super fun, isn't it??

I'm going to tell you all a little secret...there's something new coming from LaLa Land tomorrow...so be sure to come back and see!! You'll be singing with glee and skating on clouds!

I'll leave you with a photo of MY little pirate, Captain Jack! Have a wonderful day!

Yo-ho-ho and a ton of new STAMPS!

Happy Friday everyone! I'm so excited to present Pirate Cooper, one of 10 amazing new stamp sets being released TODAY by Paper Pretties! There are so many fun new fall/Halloween themed sets being released, there's something for everyone! We're hopping along, so if you didn't just arrive from Jackie's blog, head on back to the beginning at Cindy's place!

I was thrilled to get to use Pirate Cooper for today's card, because my little guy LOVES pirates. If you ask him "what does a pirate say?" he responds with "aaaaahhhhhh" (which is as close to argh as he can get so far!) And, in just over a week he's having a Pirate themed birthday party to celebrate turning 2.

For this card, I colored Cooper in with my copics (of course) and used that fun All About Boys DCWV stack of papers and some fun vintage brads that look a little like compasses! And Cooper has a wonderful bird for his parrot - it's an Eclectus parrot - one of my favorites!! And do you like the way I cut the sentiment out and curved it around my oval? I do! :-)

I added another of the sentiments from the set on the inside...this set comes with lots of great greetings!! anyone out there want to WIN this set??? Just leave me a comment before Sunday at 5pm CST and YOU could WIN! Winners will all be announced on the Paper Pretties blog on Sunday night. Good luck!! Now keep on hopping to Jane's blog and see what she's got for you all using an adorable new Sophia!
