Rockabilly Gals Record

I have a card for CC Designs to share with you today.
This cutie is from a new set by Roberto's Rascals called Rockabilly Gals.
There are 4 gals in the set and they are all gorgeous :)

I wanted to create a record for the card and I did this simply by using some circle dies.
And I decided to use a sentiment from the new Rockabilly Sentiments set for the "song title".  It is actually a long sentiment but I cut it into these three segments to make stamping on the record label easier.

I coloured her with Copics and added some pencil colouring to it also.

Ingredients :

Stamps : Rockabilly Gals, Rockabilly Sentiments, Aphrodite Twila (heart notes)
Card : x-press it, black, grey, red, slate
Ink : memento black, white, versamark, versafine black
Other : Circle Dies #1, MAC #4 die, white ep, copics, pencils

If you head over to the CC Designs Blog you will see some beautiful cards by the Design Team.
And if you leave a comment, you may even be lucky enough to win this set!

Bug Birgitta

I'm here to share another card using one of the newly released stamps from CC Designs.
This little cutie is called Bug Birgitta and she's a real sweetheart isn't she?!

I don't do paper piecing all that often, but I thought she would look very cute in this happy yellow outfit.
I coloured the rest of her with copics and used the Circles #1 die to cut her out.
All the papers are from one of my favouritest ever pads by Echo Park called Bundle of Joy.

The sentiment is from an old CC Designs set called HB2U Sentiments, which isn't available any more,so lucky you if you have it :)

Kitty with Butterfly

I truly can't believe it's May already, but it is! 

And that means it's time for a new stamp release at CC Designs too :)

I have a sneak peek of a new stamp for you.

This is Kitty With Butterfly, a Rustic Sugar design. 

They are very sweet aren't they?!

I decided to create a little scene.
I used the Circles #1 Die to make the sun and then used some distress inks on watercolour paper to make some colourful rays.  I splashed some water on them and added a few droplets of Glossy Accents too for a little added dimension.
Then I used the Make a card #11 Die to cut a grassy slope for them to play on.

The sentiment is from an older CC Designs set called Happy Day. It's not available any more, so count yourself  lucky if you have this one! :)  I just thought it went perfectly with this cute image and had to use it!

I'd like to enter my card in the following challenges :

Simon Says : The great outdoors
Word Art Wednesday : anything goes
Simon Says Stamp : anything goes

There are some more sneak peeks over on the blog and please come back again tomorrow for the new release blog hop.

Cinnamon and Reindeer

This is my youngest daughter's favourite Christmas stamp and when she saw it coloured she asked me if she could have it for her Christmas card this year.  I usually just make a tag for her but this year she'll be getting this card instead :)  I also used her favourite Christmas paper on it, the green reindeer paper.  I really hope she loves it :)

Stamps : Cinnamon and Reindeer, Holly Jolly Sentiments
Card : x-press it, suede, kraft, Dear Santa (BoBunny)
Ink : memento black, versafine

For the month of October, we have 13 new character stamps, 4 dies, a Holiday Background stamp set, and a new Sentiment set.

I decided to use another one of the cuties from the Elves set.

He was lots of fun to colour and he has made such a happy Christmas card I think.

I also used the new Holly Jolly Sentiments set and CC Designs Circle Die.

Sweet Penguins

I really felt like making something Christmasy this week so I grabbed one of my all-time favourite sets by CC Designs. I just love these sweet penguins SO much and I had lots of fun colouring them.

I found a background piece I had made ages ago using the Bokeh technique and decided to use it with the cute penguins.  It was very bright through, so I placed a piece of vellum paper over the top of it which also added some extra dimension and looks great.

Ingredients :
Stamps : Sweet Penguins, My cupcake twila
Card : x-press it, snowy day (CC Designs), vellum paper, shimmery white
Ink : memento black, versamark, white craft ink, turquoise
Other : Circle die, layering tags die, silver ep, Copics

So this is my first Christmas card for the year.  I LOVE making them, so hopefully there will be lots more to come :)

This card features the new DoveArt Studio Flower Lily:



I decided to use the new Under The Sea stamp set.  I love everything about this set, the mermaid and sea creatures are all adorable and the sentiments are fabulous and fun too!

I thought I would try making a simple card just using the super cute turtle from this set along with the bubbles and the punny turtle sentiment.
I white embossed the bubbles and sentiment onto blue card and then cut a circle out of it using the circle die.
I sponged a little water background for him using distress inks and then splashed water on to it and placed this behind the circle opening.
The turtle is popped up for dimension and I added a few sequins too.

Every release we will have a New Release Blog Hop to showcase our awesome Design Team! Check out their amazing creations!
