My Besties UK- Same but Different

I am very honored  and thrilled to become a new member of the My Besties UK Design Team. Doing the happy dance. :)
This little cutie pie is IMG706. I just love her! Well, I probably can say that about all of Sherri Baldy Besties. For some of the butterflies, I used The Paper Studio, Coco & Pink Sm Polka Dot paper. The embossing folder I used is called Sizzix, Lines & Swirly Vines with Hearts.I broke out my Martha Stewart, Floral Lace punch, and the butterflies are from Poppy, Butterfly Buttons die. I colored her with my Copics, and added Bakers Twine to two of the butterflies. Pretty much, that's it.

Scrapbook Stamp Society

Hello my crafty friends!

I am excited to say I am now on the Besties DT for Scrapbook Stamp Society. :) I will be posting once a month on the 13th! I am very fortunate to be able to show you two cards that I made using two of the images that you are eligible to win at the SSSC blog for the month of October. At SSS there are so many wonderful creations by my fellow DT members. You should come over and check it out! Plus, they share crafting tips often.
For my first card, I am using IMG734. I just think she is as cute as can be.
 The card base is 4 1/2 x 6 1/2. I colored the image with my Copics. The bottom of her dress and her wings both are very sparkly. I actually broke out my Cricut for both of these cards I am showing today. I used the Happy Hauntings for the witch and tree on this card.
If you look at the image down below, you will notice that I did cut out the bats. It just wouldn't have looked right if I tried to add them.


For my next card, I am using IMG072. Isn't she a real beauty! :)
This is an easel card. The base is 5x5 when folded. I used the Cricut cartridge Life is a Beach for the flip flops, birds, and the life guard tower. Oh, and the sand bucket and shovel too. I used the Cuttlebug folder Swiss Dots to emboss the sand to give it some texture. She is colored with my Copics also.

For the tip of the day, always keep a white gel pen next to you just in case you ever go out of lines while coloring. ;)

Go check out all the new release images if you haven't already!
