You're Just a Little Batty

 Happy Indigenous People's Day! I have been so busy preparing for my event that I totally forgot today was a holiday. Made all kinds of plans to go to the bank, post office, get my bloodwork done at the lab... nope. Looks like a craft day. hee hee ;)

I finally got a chance to spend some time in my craft room yesterday and I would like to enter the card below into the following challenges:

I used papers from my stash from Doodlebug Designs - I have SO MANY 6x6 packs of their paper pads, I refuse to let myself buy any more until I've used up at least half of them! LOL  Digi stamps are from Polkadoodles, colored with Copics. I added strips of the text background DP to the top and bottom of the image panel. I used one of the dies from the Decorative Sentiment die set at Emily Moore Designs to cut out the sentiment. Peace.

Deck the Halls Tag

 Hello friends - time for some stencil fun from the October release (don't forget to use code JennFan10 for 10% off) at:

This one is called Love Forest:

I used Mica Spray Stains through the stencil to create the background. I then die cut the tree from a scrap piece of previously distressed watercolor paper, and added the sticker sentiment from Funky Fossil. Tied a ribbon through it, sponged the edges with more ink, and added some rhinestone stickers for bling.

I'd like to enter my tag into the following challenges:

It's a Good Day

Good morning! What are you all up to this weekend?  I had to run the heat for a few minutes this morning to warm the house up a bit but I'm trying to only do that in mornings and leave it off the rest of the day. Gonna be a rough winter with oil prices as high as they are, that's for sure.  But I digress, you're not here for gloom and doom. LOL  So here - have a look at a tag I made for the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Monday - Tag It!

Cut it Up - More than One Die Cut

Critter Crazy #115 - AG with a Critter!

Pammie's Inky Pinkies - Anything Goes

Wednesday's Creative Inspiration - Anything Goes

I have been having fun using up scraps that I've hoarded saved over the years! For this one, I used a tag die to cut out the tag shaped and sponged the edges with more black ink. I then used one of the dies from the Decorative Sentiment Dies set from Emily Moore Designs to die cut the sentiment, and sponged that with more black ink as well. I stamped out the panda from Paperie Ink Stamps Crafty Friends set with Versafine Black and embossed with clear embossing powder. I spot-colored a bit of blue paint on his paint tray & brush and fussy cut him, then attached with foam tape. Peace. 

Sweet November Halloween Witches

 Happy Friday!

I'd like to share the card below with the following challenges today:

Shopping Our Stash #584 - Black Cats

Passion for Markers #858 - Orange

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday - Use Patterned Paper

Wednesday's Creative Inspiration - Anything Goes

All About Papercraft #10 - All About Celebrations

I used papers from my stash (Doodlebug Designs), die cutting the stitched edge frame & black cat, and attaching a little "Happy Halloween" sentiment from my stash (I have a large plastic bin full of sentiments!) to the frame. My digi stamps are from the Sweet November Stamps Moon Dance Witchwee line, this is Hester, Sabrina, and Tabitha. I colored them with Copics and roughed up the edges of the panel before sponging with black ink. Added some rhinestone stickers in coordinating colors to finish it off. Peace.

I'd Pause My Game for You!

 Good morning! Well October is flying by like it always does and I just realized I have yet to share any stencil projects from the October release at:

This one is called Mid Century Chairs - don't forget you can always use code JennFan10 for 10% off your entire purchase!

I started with a previously made background I had made using the reverse stencil technique with the Falling Dots stencil - that one totally reminds me of video games! I then applied Black Soot Distress Oxide Ink through the Mid Century Chairs stencil directly on the background, then stamped the sentiment with the same ink. I embossed those with a clear sparkly embossing powder. I stamped out the boy from an older rubber stamp set at CC Designs, embossed with clear embossing powder, colored with Copics, fussy cut, and attached with foam tape.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:

Alphabet Challenge - L is for Little People (kids)

Creative Knockouts #580 - Sparkle & Shine

Wednesday's Creative Inspiration - Anything Goes

Thanks for visiting! Peace.

All Dressed Up New Release - Bow Dress

Good morning!  We have a new release today at

The digi I used is called Bow Dress:

I kept this very simple because I wanted the focus on the beautiful girl - I printed her out rather large and then used a stitched edge oval nesting die to cut her out cropped. I colored her with Copics and used some very old papers from my stash, manufacturer is Authentique. I added some pink rhinestone stickers and a snarky sticker sentiment from a Tim Holtz book.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:

Pammie's Inky Pinkies - Anything Goes

Lil Patch of Crafty Friends - Anything Goes
