Tiff's Sketchy Sunday 11

IMG_9957

Hi Everyone!

I thought I'd play along with Tiff's Sketchy Sunday (TG011).

My card features Betty from the Simply Betty Emo Kids stamps. I made this card for my dear friend from work who will be moving away :(. She's not quite Emo so I colored Betty's outfit differently to alter her.

Used supplies from the many kits i have laying around -- specifically ones from Studio Calico and Taylored Expressions.

Have a fantabulous one!

Magical Day

helllllloooooooooo!

Hope you all aren't too bored with my simple cards lately!

For this one, I've combined Amy's Sweet November stamp Meadow with a couple of the Emo kids' friends from Simply Betty.

They are all so awesome and cute!!

XO,

Too Cool

So I bet you are wondering, "Wow, Corinne's got a post everyday for almost two weeks...her mojo went back with a BANG!"

Well, the mojo's been here alright but the truth is, I've been sick and had been off from work. I've been able to color and make cards in the comfort of my couch so I was making use of the time in between napping and and coughing out my lungs.

I think it may have been the flu, although I did get the flu shot. Preggie people's immune systems are just more susceptible. And the tater tot had been sick as well :(.

Now that I'm feeling better and will probably be back at work, I'm 'fraid I won't be able to make cards and post daily. My goal would be three times a week ... even if it's not about crafting.

Today's card is super simple. I think it took me all of five minutes to make it, not counting coloring Christian.

The PP are from October Afternoon, and I added some 'pearl ink' from a pearl pen. I'm so glad I got to make another 'boy' card.

Talk to ya later!

My First Godchild.

IMG_8658

When I was in middle school/ junior high, my cousin, E, asked me to be a junior bridesmaid in his wedding. I felt so special! I had never been part of the bridal party before, other than being a flower girl.

A couple of years later, I was asked to be a Godmother of his baby girl. I thought, "Wow, I'm a bit too young, right?" Nonetheless, I was very proud and honored for the role.

Fast forward many years later, and my first Godchild is now turning 18!!! Eighteen?!!!

I feel so old!!! Haha! :)

SJ has grown up to be such a brilliant and gorgeous woman. This Simply Betty stamp London reminds me so much of her, especially her eyes. And SJ is quite a shopper so I thought SB stamps were the way to go!

Used supplies from the October Taylored Expressions KI kit.

Tata!

Simply Betty and Enabling...

IMG_6987

Good afternoon everybody! I hope you are all having a great Sunday so far. I actually got to sleep in today. My hubby took Matthew with him to get some breakfast and I stayed in bed until 10:30 :). Which was really nice considering I didn't sleep till 2 am!

My card for you today features Rio from Simply Betty stamps. I was coloring her during my Copics certification class last week and I got asked a few times where I got her. They are really fun characters -- I especially love coloring her big eyes and luscious hair! My other favorite part of this card is the painted paper towel (from kol laj that I crinkled across the top. The sentiment is from TGF (I mixed and matched words), and the PP are from the July Taylored Expressions KI kit.

And then, thought I'd share some of my recent cool purchases here. I'm warning you though...

********* ENABLER ALERT!!!! *******************

Jo told me about shelves that are made specifically for Copics. Love them! I bought three but only two are showing here.



You can arrange your Copics according to the color family. I highly recommend them!



The next product is the Pink ATG I first heard about from Sunghee. I have yet to try it out, but lemme tell you. I have been scrapping for about 13 years now, and my favorite adhesive tool is my Scotch ATG adhesive gun. At first, I thought it would be too heavy and bulky, but it is so easy and fast to use. It's also great for making cards! The pink version came out in honor of breast cancer. 3M, which makes the adhesives, will donate part of its proceeds to the Susan G Komen foundation.



Anyway, I wish this could be a lazy Sunday for me. But gotta clean our place. Till next time!
