Introducing the new Eureka Stamps Design Team!

Welcome to the first blog hop for Eureka stamps to
 introduce our new Design team! 
I am happy to report that I was asked to stay on!
 There is lots of new talent on the team this time!
 I promise you will not be disappointed! 

My card today uses the digital stamp
 Sleeping puppy. 


He just looks so comfortable sleeping there. 
I colored him with watercolor crayons and fussy cut him 
out so it would look like he was laying on top of the card.

Most of Eureka's stamps are available in digital or unmounted red rubber!
Here is the link to the store in case you want to do a little shopping!

Clear Dollar Stamps CIC 55

Hello - welcome to Clear Dollar Stamps Clearly Inspired Challenge #55! The challenge this time is Some Like It HOT. This theme was open to interpretation, so I used colors from the warm side of the color wheel! I used a new digi from our designer Lisa Lara called Scoops. 


I printed my digi onto printed paper (by Jilli Bean) and then did some paper piecing. The large flag die is from Lil' Inkers. I hope you will join us in this challenge! 
Check the Clearly Inspired blog for all the details! Thanks for stopping today!

Doodle Pantry July Release!!

Hello!! It's hard to believe it's July already!!!! 
Laurie at Doodle Pantry has some 
super cute new digis being released this month!!
I thought I'd share my card using the digi Bottle Rocket Ants. 
Just in time for the 4th of July!

Those silly ants are always up to something!
I made this card a 5 x 7 size. 
I distressed the white paper with distress ink to 
make it match the background paper. 
After I colored the image with colored pencils,
 I added more distress ink. 
I'll be back this week with more from Doodle Pantry!
Thanks for stopping today!
