OCCC - Meet Agnes

This is another card I did last weekend while on a stamping retreat. I would like you to meet Agnes. She is another cutie from the KETTO line at StampingBella. I did this card for the Our Creative Corner Challenge (OCCC) from March 28, 2009. The contest giveaway is already over but I really wanted to do this sketch so here is what I came up with.

I started out with a Regal Rose card base and used a Baja Breeze piece from the designer prints pack and a Regal Rose piece from the Sweet Always designer pack. The coordinating color I used is Old Olive for my mats. I stamped Agnes with Black Brilliance Ink, embossed her with Clear Embossing Powder, colored her with Copic Markers and cut her out with an Oval Nestie. The outside edge of the background piece has been pierced with a Paper Piercer and Mat Pack. The sentiment is from the Hanna Stamps set called Things Hanna Would Say. I finished up with some Regal Rose Grosgrain Ribbon with six Clear Kaiser Rhinestones added.

Thanks for coming by to check me out. It has gotten up to 88 degrees here in Georgia today. It was absolutely gorgeous. We are supposed to have a whole weekend of this beautiful weather. Hope your weekend is great. Talk to you soon.

AMYRS64 - Meet Suzette

This is for Amy Rysavy's Friday Sketch AMYRS64. This is the first time I have played along with one of Amy's sketches but it was a lot of fun.

I started out with a Tempting Turquoise Card base and used Rainbow Sherbet again for my Designer Paper. The coordinating colors for this designer paper are Apricot Appeal, Green Galore and Tempting Turquoise. I used another one of my new KETTO stamps from StampingBella for the main image. Her name is Suzette. Another cutie, huh? She was stamped with Black Brilliance ink, embossed with Clear Embossing Powder, colored with Copic Markers, and cut out and popped with Dimensionals. I used three designer brads in the upper left corner and some Turquoise Grosgrain Ribbon. It's finished off with a Martha Stewart border punch on the bottom.

Thanks for checking me out and have a wonderful weekend. Talk to you soon.

TECC61 - Mismatch Girl

I would like you to meet another one of the precious KETTO girls from StampingBella called Mismatch. How many of you out there have little girls that like to dress theirselves and their clothes don't match? I have two precious nieces that used to be like that when they were around 3 or 4. Love you Zoe and Olivia.

This card is for Taylored Expressions Cupcake Challenge TECC 61. I started with a Real Red card base and I used Pink Flamingo as my designer paper. The layers are all matted in Basic Black. I stamped Mismatch with Black Brilliance Ink, embossed her with Clear Embossing Powder and colored her with Copic Markers. I stamped a Dragonfly, which is also part of the KETTO line of stamps, to fly around above her. The main image is double matted with Rectangle Nesties. The bling is Red Kaiser Rhinestones.

Thanks for coming by to check me out on this beautiful Monday. Talk to you soon.

Next, Meet Maisy - WSC74

Today I would like to introduce you to Maisy, also from StampingBella's line called Ketto. Isn't she a cutie too? Maisy is wearing a crown and so is her Prince Charming which is also from the Ketto line. BTW, this is for Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge WSC74, which is being hosted this week by Charmaine Ikach from Oodabug Alley.

I started with a Real Red card base and used Ski Slope for my designer paper. The coordinating colors in the card are Old Olive and Baja Breeze. Maisy and her Prince Charming were stamped with Black Brilliance ink, embossed with Clear Embossing Powder and colored with Copic Markers. The sentiment is from a sentiment set I purchased at Archiver's by Impression Obsession "Sentiments II". It was cut out with the Large Oval Punch and matted with a Baja Breeze piece cut out with the Wide Oval Punch. The bling is Red Kaiser Rhinestones and the ribbon is Real Red Grosgrain.

Thanks for coming by to check me out today and I hope the rest of your weekend is wonderful. It's cloudy, windy, and warm on this beautiful Saturday afternoon in Georgia. See you soon.

Meet Tatiana

Hello, I would like you to meet Tatiana. She is one of the new stamps from Stamping Bella's line called Ketto. Isn't she cute as a button? I have several of these new stamps and can't wait to show them to you. I'm getting together with Mercy to stamp tomorrow so look out for some extra fun stuff coming your way. Speaking of Mercy, do you see my new watermark on my card? She made that for me. Isn't she precious? Thanks Mercy, you're the best!!

Tatiana was stamped with Black Brilliance ink, embossed with Clear Embossing Powder and colored with Copic Markers. She was cut out with Circle Nesties. I used the Pink Flamingo designer paper for this card. I cut out a Turquoise piece from the designer pack with the Top Note Die and put behind the main panel. I created the punched bottom edge of the card with a Martha Stewart punch. The final touches are some Real Red Grosgrain Ribbon and a large Petaloo flower with a designer brad in the center.

Thanks for coming by to check me out today. Stayed tuned for more of these fabulous Ketto stamps this weekend. Mercy and I are going to Fairy Tale land with them tomorrow. Wanna join us?
