Prettie Pastel Wednesday

All the Prettie Girls were complaining about this week's challenge of having to use pastels to color their images. I have to admit, I wasn't even sure I had brought my pastels back from Germany...so I had to dig under lots of things to find them. I'm not sure if my application is cheating, since I actually did poppin' pastels with them...but that was all I could muster one-handed this morning.

I used the wonderful Sealed with a Kiss set, which I just love and which is being re-released in RUBBAH this weekend, paired with Julee's Monday Mojo sketch #70. I stamped the fun hearts image all over my white card base with pink pirouette ink to give it a subtle pattern, then I stamped the bunch of roses with my versamark ink. Using the applicators, I applied some Rose Red pastel to the roses, and some mellow moss to the leaves and stems. I finished with some so saffron to the baby's breath. I then punched it out with my 1 1/4" punch and layered it on a scalloped Rose Red square.

The patterned paper is from a retired SU! Holiday Happenings hostess bundle and is covered in XOXO's. The scalloped circle was cut with my Nesties (LOVE em!) and I adde the sparkles from a Heidi Swapp circle frames bling set. I used the 1 1/4" pink pirouette grosgrain ribbon and stamped the Happy Valentine's Day sentiment that comes in the SWAK set. A fairly simple card...but pretty good for having only one free hand most of the morning, don't ya think?

There's lots of excitement in the Prettie world as we're getting ready to celebrate our 2nd anniversary. WOOHOO Christie!!! Be sure to join us for all the fun. Our blog hop will begin on Christie's blog on January 22nd and will span 3 whole days, culminating in our party in the forum on the 25th starting at 8pm EST (5pm for us Westerners!)

There's a contest to go with this fun blog hop, and the winner will get a 6 month subscription to the Paper Pretties Stamp of the Month club!! WOW!!! At the party we'll also have prizes every 1/2 hour, but you have to be there to win...so be sure to come on over!

Have a wonderful hump day everyone!

Prettie Friday, Pretty late!

Ok...I have no excuse other than a screaming baby for being so late. I think I'll have to switch days with someone. In the meantime...I did get a chance to stamp this little cutie on Wednesday (of course, couldn't take the photos until Friday morning...then never got a chance to type until today!)

I used Danielle's Pretties Weekly Challenge #34 sketch for the layout, along with Flutter By Sophia. If you haven't checked them out yet, Danielle does an awesome challenge every week! This week's challenge involves making a box with either Sweets for the Sweet or Made with Love. You can even win a prize for playing along!

Back to the card, I used some fun flowered patterned paper to paper piece Sophia's dress, as well as for the circular back. The pink is pink Pirouette (with matching ribbon) and the base of the card is Certainly Celery. I colored Sophia with prismacolor pencils, and the flower and her jewelry were colored with Spica glitter pens. Oh...and notice the lovely large scalloped circle?? I finally got me some Nesties!! :-) Oh...and I'm sending this card along for Jen Del Muro's blog tart contest to Texas...click through to her blog for more info on how you could win lots of stamping goodness!!

I also have to say a huge THANK YOU to all the prettie girls! They sent me the most amazing box of goodies!!! I'll post photos of some of the handstamped items throughout the coming week or 2, but here's a photo of the entire contents. Don't you all wish you were me?? One of the best things about it was they each made me a 2 page spread for a 6 by 6 album...I mean what a lucky little guy Jack is to have his first baby album completed by some of the most talented stampers out there?? I just love it!!!

I hope you all have a very Prettie Week...oh...and we have some fun coming up for you this week, so stay tuned, and be sure to watch ALL the Prettie Blogs - you could win something HUGE!!

Supplies: (all supplies from SU! unless noted)

Prettie Wednesday...and some MFT fun!

So today is Prettie Wednesday, and everyone is posting their CASE from the Prettie Gallery. I had not officially started playing yet when Julie issued that great challenge. I do need to be working on my pastel card for Charmaine's challenge to us all last week...guess I better make sure I still HAVE pastels!!! This week, it's MY turn to issue the challenge. I love the Limited Supply Challenges on SCS because I think it's fun to have to use certain tools, etc...so here's my challenge to you (should you choose to accept it!) Create a card or scrapbook page using the following items:

1 dry embossed piece (embossing folders and texture plates count!)
2 pieces of patterened paper
3 colors of solid cardstock (this includes any neutrals you use)
4 embellishments
5 layers

So, the dry embossed piece must be one of your patterned papers or your 3 colors. And, at no point should there by more than 4 layers under a top piece of cardstock. However, if you have your base card with a second layer on that...you may have multiple small pieces each with 2 layers under them...right? Oh...and you may use as many tools as you like. Guess this isn't so much limited as just very specific!

On to my creative share. Last week was the birthday of a very close friend of Julia. When I bought the Isabelle set from MFT it was specifically to make paper dolls for Julia and her friends. So, the first set I made was for her friend, Izabella!

I bought about 8 DVD tins from GinaK to have on hand to make these, got a package of magnetic sheet paper for your inkjet from the office supply store, and went to work. The best part was how thrilled Julia's friend was with her set of dolls...and the complete look of amazement on her face when Julia casually mentioned that I had made it. The only downside was that I still had not finished Julia's, so she was quite jealous that her friend got one before she did!! I'm still trying to get her's completed...but she's finished all the coloring, I just have a to finish decorating the front and cutting a few more things out.

I hope you all have a wonderful day!

TFL!

Card Class anyone?

Here are some cards that my friend Michelle and I created for our upcoming Valentine/Birthday card class on January 25th from 1-4pm. We got inspiration for these from a few different blogs (most notably Stamp Your Heart Out and iStamp) as well as our own little minds! If you'd like to attend this class, please send me an email (using the link to the side) and I'll reserve your spot!

All the cards to the right use new stamps from the Spring/Summer 2009 SU! catalog. Several are hostess sets available only to folks who host a workshop...so if you'd like to earn stamps for free contact me (or your local Stampin' Up! Demonstrator) and I can hook you up! :-)

Starting at the top left the sets used are: Hand Drawn Bundle, Love You Much. Center is Game Night with matching DSP and in the front on the left is A Little Somethin' and right is Goody Goody Gumdrops. I'll show some close ups of a few of these cards over the next week.

Enjoy, and have a wonderful day!

OMG - New Catalog is HERE!!!

I can't believe how much I love the new catalog. I am going to be completely broke!!! I truly think this is the best catalog since I started stamping in January of 2002!!!

Ok...back to my wish list. I'll be back later today with some eye candy...I promise!

Hoppin' Down the Bunny Trail

Ok...so I'm only 2 days late! Here's my Prettie Friday post on Sunday. The card was done, but when I went to edit the images they were totally blurry. Then, it took me a while to figure out my camera's macro mode was on some weird setting so it wouldn't focus properly...but now I have good photos for you all!

This adorable Sophia is the February Stamp of the Month (SOTM). If you want to get her during the month BEFORE she's released to the general public, you need to join the SOTM club - and then you get a beautiful new Sophia delivered to your door every month before anyone else gets her! Isn't that cool??? It's almost like being on a design team. :-)

I used last week's Our Creative Corner sketch for the layout of my card - and I swear I did this even before seeing that my teammate Frances had done the same!! Guess great minds and all that.

I used some retired SU! Berry Bliss designer paper along with my old favorite Purely Pomegranate (amazing how pomegranates are the new IN fruit, huh?? That must have happened while I was in Europe!) I colored Sophia with my prismacolor pencils, which are fun to use again after such a long time without. I put the sentiment in some Hodge Podge Hardware and added a flower from the pretties kit along with my gingham ribbon. Overall it was a very simple card, but lots of fun to create.

So, while editing this photo I got a few others done, so I'll have more to post in the coming few days, don't worry. The only trick now is finding time when I have 2 available hands for typing because I'm just too verbose to type up a post one-handed!!

Supplies: (all supplies from SU! unless noted)
Stamps: Bunny Hop Sophia by Paper Pretties
CS: Purely Pomegranate, Basic Black, Whisper White, Berry Bliss DSP
Ink: Palette Noir
Acc: scallop edge punch, designer label punch, gingham ribbon, pretties kit flower, styled silver hodge podge hardware, prismacolor pencils, blending stumps, oms.

Sophia's got Mojo!

Sorry again for the long silence, I've been meaning to post all week! I actually have been stamping, and so want to share some fun stuff I've made.

First up is this adorable Sophia card. I used Julee's Mojo Monday sketch along with the newly released Sending You Love Sophia. Isn't she adorable?? I stamped her with Palette Noir ink on whisper white cardstock, and colored her with my prismacolor pencils. I've missed those! The DSP is some I got from the Pretties Boutique last year...can't remember who makes it but thinking Bo Bunny? The ribbon I got just a few weeks ago (part of Christie's clearance sale!) and the buttons are SU! neutrals buttons. I punched the heart from Pink Pirouette paper using the new 3 heart punch.

I really just love this new stamp, and am sorry I haven't shared her with you before now! I"ll be back to Prettie Wednesdays after next week with Charmaine's challenge to use Pastels. Gotta dig through and see if I still have any!! Oh...and be sure to check out Jules' Jewels - case a card from the Prettie Gallery and you could win Cuddle Me Sophia!! (maybe I should try to win since I lost mine somewhere between Germany and California!)

Supplies: (all supplies from SU! unless noted)
Stamps: Sending You Love by Paper Pretties
CS: Chocolate Chip, Pink Pirouette, Whisper White, DSP
Ink: Palette Noir, Chocoloate Chip
Acc: heart punch, scallop edge punch, oval punch, gingham ribbon, stitched velvet ribbon, buttons.

Happy Birthday Prettie Jodi!

It's another Prettie Birthday Blog Hop, and today we're honoring the amazing Jodi Collins (AKA Karmagirl) Jodi is an amazing papercrafting goddess, and a former Dirty Girl! We've been so lucky to have her as part of our design team...because not only is she amazingly talented, she's super sweet as well! If you're just joining the hop, be sure to go back to Christie's blog where the fun began!

For today's party I signed up to bring the streamers. And with that in mind, I thought it might be fun to make one of those cool Spiral Pop-up Cards! For the card front I thought our devastatingly adorable Wade E. Bug would be perfect, with Happy Birthday surrounded by bling, kindof like being up in lights to match our show-stopping Wade.

For the inside, I punched some flowers with old SU! flower punches and layered them, adding a little twinkle to the center of each, and I attached them to my "streamers" or spirals. Finally, I hand-wrote the sentiment at the bottom using Spica glitter pens, sticking with the Broadway theme of the card it reads: "I hope EVERYTHING is coming up ROSES on your day!"

Please be sure to go on to Danielle's blog for the next card on this adventure, and we'll send you at Jodi's blog so you can be sure to wish her a happy birthday!!

Supplies: (all supplies from SU! unless noted)
Stamps: Wade E. Bug by Paper Pretties
CS: Watercolor paper, Real Red, Pink Pirouette, Bella Rose DSP, Basic Black
Ink: Brilliance black, Pink Pirouette
Acc: stickles, reinkers, aquapainter, spica glitter pens, flower punches, large circle punch, black organdy ribbon, lotsa bling.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone! I'm hoping to have a few new projects to show you over the next week, but for now here's a quick Merry Christmas from my beautiful kids! I hope your day was wonderful!!

Forgotten Card...

I thought I'd post this card I made before Jack was born for a swap I did. I never had a chance to post it...so you all get to see it now (since I still haven't gotten any more stamping done yet!)

I used my Winter Post set (which I LOVE) along with some Riding Hood Red, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip and Very Vanilla cardstocks. I sponged all the layers, used my scallope edge punch for the top and some new SU! ribbon along with the awesome felt snowflakes from the Winter SU! mini.

It's been a busy weekend here getting everything decorated for Christmas, but I finally managed to finish decorating our tree and the interior of the house. Our annual cookie swap is next weekend so I have to make sure the house is ready. :-)

I'm also getting some Blog Bon-Bon's ready soon. I have a few duplicate stamp sets here so once I sort through and figure out which ones, I'll post it here!

I hope you all have a wonderful week - and I'll try to be back again soon!

Supplies: (all supplies from SU! unless noted)
Stamps: Winter Post
CS: Riding Hood Red, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip and Very Vanilla

PJ Party Challenge 2

Wow...2 in a row! Amazing huh?? Last night I finally got a chance to finish up the card I started Monday night for the second challenge for the SIYJ party that night. I was really inspired by Charlie's card here that she made for her daughter. I remember how much Julia loves spinner cards, and thought it would be fun to make one with our cute little Ice Skating Sophia - January's Stamp of the Month! (To get her before everyone else, be sure to sign up for the Stamp of the Month Club before the end of December...otherwise you have to wait until February 1st to order this little cutie!!)

I started by stamping Sohpia on some watercolor paper and coloring her in with reinkers and an aquapainter before cutting her out. I then added some stickles to her cape, used my sakura clear glitter pen on her skates, and some liquid applique for her muffs. I then put her aside to dry.

Next, I assembled the card itself. I used some designer paper from the SU! Holiday Happenings hostess bundle for the background. I adhered it to a slightly smaller piece of cardstock to give it some more strength. Then, I punched 2 holes with the Word Window punch, one from the top and one from the bottom. Next, I connected them using the punched out pieces as a guide for my craft knife...this made a little Z for Sophia to skate along. Before adhering my pennies on either side of the snowflake piece with a dimensional I stamped the greeting, then added lots of dimensionals to the back to stick it to my Pink Pirouette base. Finally I Stock Sophia on the top penny with one more dimensional, and moved her along!

I had forgotten how much I like making penny cards. Julia's 3rd birthday invitations were penny cards, and she loved them...so I know she'll love this one! Later this week I'll show you the card SHE made with this set on Monday night during the party...it's another beautiful Julia Original!

Oh...and if you haven't checked out our new Paper Pretties blog, written by none other than the Amazing Jodi Collins, be sure you do! On Tuesdays she does a great article highlighting some of the products from the boutique, and this week you can get Angel Wings Sophia on sale!

Have a wonderful day!

PJ Party Goodness

WOW! I can't believe I haven't posted anything here in over a month. I'm so sorry everyone. Jackson came home 3.5 weeks ago, and life has been even more insane, if that's possible. But, he's been doing great - growing really well and is almost 8.5 pounds and we still haven't gotten to his due date yet. :-)

So, needless to say I really haven't been stamping much. But yesterday the Prettie Girls had a Stamping In Your Pajamas party, and I couldn't miss out on all the fun. I managed to get one card made yesterday while Jack slept and Julia was at school. Charmaine came up with some great challenges this time, and this card was for her pink, blue and white challenge.

I started with this adorable snow angel Sophia from Snowflake Kisses (now available in RUBBER!) stamped on watercolor paper with brilliance black ink. I colored her in with my aquapainter and watercolor crayons, then clipped the corners with my ticket corner punch. Next, I took a 5.25 by 10.5" piece of Bashful Blue cardstock and folded it in half. I cut a piece of DSP from a retired Christmas-y Simply Scrappin' kit from SU!, wrapped some wide Pink Pirouette grosgrain around it, then tied on the Bashful Blue tafetta before adhering it all to the cardbase.

Next, I added the Pink Pirouette cardstock under both layers of ribbon, stuck the large snowflake die-cut from the SS kit on, and popped Sophia up on top of them all. Then, I stamped the greeting with Night of Navy ink. Lastly, I added some stickles - waterfall to the snow edges, and crystal to Sophia's hat and boots. You can see them much better in this detail shot.

This is still one of my favorite Paper Pretties sets almost one whole year later...I just love snow angels! Although, the January SOTM (Stamp of the Month) is right up there too! I started a card for the second challenge (a project for a child) using that stamp last night, and hope to finish it today. Oh, and by the way...if you haven't been to the boutique for a while you've GOTTA go!! Almost everything in there is 75% off right now because Christie is moving and doesn't want to move all her stock. So...what better place to find some great Christmas gift for all your stamping and scrapping friends, at a GREAT price!!!

Thanks for checking in with my after my long silence. I can't promise daily posts yet, but will try to get a few things per week up here. I've missed this for too long! If you're interested, I've added a photo of my Sophia and Cooper (Julia and Jackson) at the end of this post. Have a wonderful day!

Stamping for Baby Jack

Ok, so I finally stamped something. Of course, it woudl have to be a baby onesie for little Jackson!! I got some organic cotton Gerber premie size onesies in white specifically so I could stamp on them, and hadn't taken the time until this week. I used SU! craft ink (Not Quite Navy and Old Olive) along with the Big Deal alphabet and Wild about You stamp sets. I just love how it turned out. I made 3 in all, and will show you the others as he wears them!

Hope everyone is well...and I hope to get my life back to normal by bringing little Jackson home in the next few weeks, and therefore be able to stamp again! In the mean time, check out the blogs of all the Prettie Girls for some sneak peeks of some ADORABLE new sets being released on November 1st (Saturday night) at a fun filled Prettie Stamping In Your Pajamas party!!

Thanks for checking in!!

My little Pumpkin...

Ok...so I said this baby was going to look just like Cooper! It might take him a little while to fill out and get those Cooper-esque chunky cheeks...but could he be any cuter??

Here's a project for you all! I made this for the Stamping in your PJ's party on the first, and just loved playing with this new little Cooper from Pick of the Patch which is available now in the Paper Pretties Boutique in cling mounted RUBBER!! WOOHOO!!! I think he's the cutest one yet! It's just a quick little tag, and Coop is colored in with my aquapainter and watercolor crayons. I'm starting to get into those again (or at least I was before my stamping hiatus began on Friday) And the cardstock is Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive.

I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!

Jackson

To follow Jackson, please visit http://weavercentral.blogspot.com

I do have lots of projects that are already made and filmed, so as I have time I will try to post some stamping things here.

Thanks to everyone for your love and support...it helps to know all my blogging friends out there are thinking of us and sending us their best!

Very quick update...

The blurfers are getting this first...because it's easier for me to post here than compose and send an email!

I just got home from the hospital. Our son Jackson Philip Weaver was born Friday night at 8:20pm and weighed 4 pounds 2.5 ounces, 16 inches long. He was only 9 weeks early (compared to his big sister's 13 weeks) and is doing quite well comparatively. We still anticipate he'll be in the hospital for a minimum of 4 weeks, more likely 6-8.

So...I'm taking a brief hiatus here. I will probably have another blog to track Jackson's progress for family and friends, but will only be posting sporadically here as my life just got a heck of a lot busier.

Thanks for all your support!

PJ Party Fun

I had a great time at the Paper Pretties Stamping in your Pajamas party last night. I managed to finish projects for 2 of the 3 challenges...and will have to try to finish up the middle one (a color challenge) tomorrow perhaps.

This project was created for the first challenge - try a technique you've never done before. One I've been wanting to try is where you put ink on your Cuddlebug embossing folder before putting in the cardstock. I put some old olive ink on the folder then put in my certainly celery cardstock to emboss. Isn't this new tree folder awesome??? I colored in Sophia with my aquapainter and watercolor crayons and then cut her out and popped her on to the tree. I then added some stickles for maximum glitter.

The certainly celery is layered on some Rose Red, which is then layered onto the Old Olive card. And can you believe I don't have any ribbon on here?? I can't!! Of course, I may go back and add some since it's looking a little bare to me now.

This Sophia is Trim the Tree Sophia, and she's the November Stamp of the Month. Isn't she adorable? If you sign up for the SOTM club anytime before October 31st, you'll get her in November ahead of everyone else. For the rest of you...she'll be available to order starting December 1st.

And speaking of the Prettie Boutique, Christie announced a wonderful sale last night in honor of her grandmother, a breast cancer survivor. All things pink in the store are now 40% off!! No need for a coupon code, just go straight to the sale section and the prices are already marked down. Have fun shopping!!

Prettie Wednesday Inspired!

Howdy folks. I'm finally back with today's Prettie Wednesday card. 2 Weeks ago Jessie challenged us to be inspired. Since I was doing this last minute (been fighting off a nasty cold the last two days and have had ZERO energy!) I looked up and remembered this beautiful leaf art I have hanging in my dining area (right near my computer) It's this amazing artwork by Booker Morey. This piece here is quite similar to the one I have.

I decided to use Falling for You Sophia since she is now available to purchase in the boutique (as of this evening) and she's perfect with these lovely fall colors!

I stamped her in Brilliance black ink on Stamper's Select white and then colored her in with my SU! markers. I stamped the leaves in the background with Pumpkin Pie ink on Pumpkin Pie paper, and then stamped the greeting with Chocolate Chip ink. I tied some hemp around that layer before popping my Old Olive layered Sophia on top and then adding the silk leaves. All that was then popped onto the chocolate chip card.

The PJ Party tonight has been fun...and you can look for some more fun sneaks of the newest stamps we've got coming out here over the next several days. You're gonna LOVE em!!!
