Hello,

Just a quick little post to let you all know about a free digi stamp that Simply B Stamps is giving away. You must use the image- dark colors for bad and brighter colors for the good and post your project on your blog. That is it. Easy Peasy. I couldn’t decide if I wanted to be good or bad so I went with both. You can find her here on Simply B Stamps Facebook Fan page. Come over an join us there. There are fantastic people, lovely images and good scrappy fun. Hurry there is a limited amount of time that she will be available for free.

Papers: the spookytime stack from DCWV

Copics: Bad: E 50,00,21,11,E04; V4,6,9,C10; C4,6,8 Good: E50,21,00, R 20; Rv10, E50,51,53; YR14,15,16

Web is C5 With Wink of Stella glitter and looks WAY better in real life.

Hope you are all well.

Jazz sends his love.

Happy Birthday Emily!

brown, cards, challenge, just because, Simply B Stamps, the stamping chef

Hey Guys.

The Stamping Chef and Simply B Stamps had a Goddess challenge and offered these cuties for just a dollar. They are both such generous and lovely women. So I love to support them any way I can. And I get some cute stamps too.

Thank you ladies for the awesome stamps.

I used Deconstructed Sketch for inspiration on card design. If you haven’t seen her site check it out. I use it all the time. At the top of her site click on deconstructed sketch and there are lists of sketches that you can use.

Good Morning!! Hope that this finds you enjoying your weekend. I can’t believe that it is already the end of November. Where has the year gone?

Today’s images are especially fun ones. I love em. Though I don’t know why anyone would want to shoot our sweet and loving Corinne with an arrow. (giggle)

I used a diamond gate fold that I found on Splitcoaststampers. You can find the tutorial here. (The small clothespins are just to hold the card closed for the photo.)

I used The Paper Studio Affinity papers. The die is from Spellbinders Fantastic Flourish two.

For those that asked, the retreat was AWESOME! I had such a good time. Miss Betty was an amazing hostess. The house was perfect, the jacuzzi warm and the wine was tasty. Although it was not my most productive weekend, I met some fabulous gals that I hope to see again at the next one.

Jazzy sends a big hello!

Hugs,

Wendy

The papers are from: Bo Bunny Mama-razzi; the Labels are from Recollections Haunted. The bling is from Recollections as well. The web was made with Sizzix Tim Holtz Alterations Cobwebs

She was colored with Copics: E00, E11, E13, R21; N5,7,9; C5,7,9; R24, 27, 29, C5; E000; C00,C1,3.
