PMS Challenge - Makeup 4 the Weekend

So, I had an awesome friend over this past weekend (Tracey) for a little bit of craftiness. We are working on an ETSY shop to try to raise a little bit of dough (check it out - http://www.etsy.com/shop/FancyPaperCompany). I decided to try my hand at one of the challenges issued by Katie Cotton at the Paper Makeup Stamps blog. She's the owner of this ultra-cute stamp line and recently moved her challenges to the weekend. I had the stamped image in my stash (I've ordered the PMS snowmen!!) so I just decided to stick with this image instead of a PMS one since I'm making Christmas cards. Hopefully this won't disqualify me from the challenge?!

Now, for some details. The striped paper is by My Mind's Eye, there's light and dark blue Bazzill, and then (I think) Bo Bunny Snowflake paper. As I said, the image was from my stash of swapped images so I have no idea who it is made by. The little snowflakes are the small Dress It Up! embellishments. I colored the image using Copic Markers and a little bit of Spica Glitter Pen on the "cupcake" base. The little rhinestones on the Snowman's front are by Kaisercraft. I love their bling!!

Anyway, that's it for today I think. I've got some other cards to post but I'm worn out after this day!!

Happy crafting!!

Hello! Thanks for stopping by my little spot of craftiness. I’m very excited to be a part of the December Fan Club Blog Hop for Paper Makeup Stamps . If you’ve been hopping along today, then you probably got here from Simonne Clay’s blog SemSee’s Sparkly Scribblings . If you haven’t stopped by her place yet, be sure to do so as her creations are amazing!! If you’ve gotten lost along the way, just take a peek at the listing below to get back on track. Without further ado, here’s my little creation for Paper Makeup Stamps … This was so much fun to create! The sentiment is of course by Paper Makeup Stamps and is the May the Spirit of Christmas Wordart . I absolutely love this sentiment! This will surely be one of my “go to” stamps this year for my Christmas cards. Other details of this card … I used the Stampin’ Up Snowfall Printed Window Sheets for the base of my card. For my layers of cardstock, I used Bazzill Dotted Swiss Cardstock . I’ve been turning to this cardstock a lot lately ...

RAKin' Good Time

Image
Hello blogland!! It's been forever since I've last blogged .... life has gotten in the way yet again. One of the things that is keeping me the busiest is the ning group I created for crafty folks - Fancy Paper Crafters . I never realized how much time went into being the organizer of a social site until I made the leap and did it myself. Even though it does take up a large amount of my spare time, I absolutely love the fact that I have a place to go to share my craftiness without feeling that I'm not good enough. So, I made another leap today and decided to create a Facebook Group to go along with the ning group. Just trying to get our name out there to get more people involved. To entice folks to join (either group), I'm offering up this RAK. You will be entered for joining either group (join both and get TWO entries!). This is a Flocking Powder Collection by Inkadinkado that offers 12 different colors. You can read all about it either on the Fancy Paper Crafters Face...

Camping

For those of you that know me, know that I would NEVER actually choose to go camping on purpose. However, I know my husband really enjoys it and thought I would step out of my comfort zone and make an attempt to learn about one of his passions. So, on the morning of November 1, I set out for my first camping trip (1 night only!). We went with some of our friends, Nick and Kristin. The deal is that I would go if Kristin went and we've been trying to find the perfect weekend for a year now (hmmm, intentional ya think? LOL). We were supposed to be up in Charlotte (going to Lake Wylie at the State Park) at 12:30 but had to go to the grocery store and buy food and get the truck packed up. Nick and Kristin were getting firewood ready and were also running behind. We ended up getting at the campsite at around 5:30 (this meant that I would actually only be "in nature" for roughly 18 hours LOL). After unloading everything at our two campsites, the first order of business was setti...
