Who Wants to Be my Friend!?

eclectic Paperie, that's who!! :) I got an email from Joy the other day, asking me if I would be interested in being featured in the eP newsletter this week as an eP Friend, and of course I said YES! I LOVE eclectic Paperie, so I didn't even have to think about it! Plus, who doesn't need another friend?! ;)

So, for today, in honor of eP, I've got TWO cards featuring products that can be found in their webstore. Here's the link, in case you've been under a rock and have never been there! (Just kidding.)

The first card was made using a Stampendous image, that can be found on this page. (He's even on SALE!) I LOVE the Changito monkeys, and with Wyatt playing TBall, I had to have this image! I colored him with Copics, and paper pieced his hat with some Cosmo Cricket Little Boys PP. The star is from Heidi Swapp, and the button is from Basic Grey. The metal "Boys will be Boys" sentiment is from Making Memories.For the second card, I pulled out my Rubber Romance Melanie that can be found on this page. I've had her for ages, and haven't inked her up till now! I don't know why, either, because she was so much fun to play with!

I colored her skin, hair, and hat band with Copics, and I paper pieced her bags with my Basic Grey Urban Prairie PP. I added the tiny pearls to her shoes and the HUGE diamond ring (adhesive rhinestone) to her hand. The buttons are from BG, also. Ribbon is from SU!, and the sentiment is from River City Rubber Works. My friends say that this sentiment is "very me." I don't know what they mean by that... Or maybe I do and don't care? Who knows! ;)

And here's the detail shot, for a closer look at the pearls and diamond.

Well, if you've never been here before and found me via the newsletter, I hope that you like what you see and come back! And if you come here all the time, then I LOVE YA! :)

I had a lot of fun with these cards today! Thanks again to Joy and Daisy for letting me be your Friend! :)

Tomorrow will bring Lauren's SSC, so I'll see you then!

Bad Lighting

I don't know what was going on with this pic. I took this last week, and in a variety of places, and couldn't get a good one, so I gave up! :) This is the ATC that I did for the swap, and here I am, still trying to get some mileage out of it! ;) Like I said before, I've been busy making "other" things that I can't show you yet. I know that that's probably annoying, but it's true!!!

I added more of the Prima paper to this, and a cutey photo corner that I created with my Giga Scallop Oval punch, a gel pen, and some ribbon. For more info on the ATC, see this post.

I wasn't very productive last night. :( High hopes for today, though! :) Have a great Hump Day!

Jen's ATC Swap, Part 1

This pint size group of cards is for super sweet Jen del Muro's ATC swap. I've signed up for 2 groups, and this is the first one. I found this little ATC sized Rubber Romance Tiffany stamp at Stampfest while we were there, and thought she'd be perfect for this swap. I kept the layout pretty simple, because the main image has a lot going on. I hope that everyone likes them!

I Prismacolored her, and sponged the edges. The PP is some pretty Prima paper that I got at my LSS, and the bkgd is Cuttlebugged with the A2 Bubbles folder. The green piece of CS is one of my new Prism papers that I received from that CPS contest. What a nice package they sent! One side is smooth for stamping, and the other textured. And what great colors! I thought about taking a pic. Maybe I'll get to that?!? The sentiment says You Brighten My Days, and it's from A Muse.

Hope everyone had a nice and safe holiday yesterday! We had a good time with friends, but we're dragging a bit this morning from the late night. Happy Hump Day, and I'll talk to you soon!
