Guest Designing for JUGS #348

Hi Everyone,

this is my inspiration for the Just Us Girls challenge:


It is color week and I lucked out with those juicy hot colors!!!


That sleepy, frazzled monster is by Whipper Snapper.Colored with watercolor on water color paper. The sentiment is by STAMPlorations. Added Washi tape and a strip of envelop liner paper and a yellow enamel dot.


Come and play along with JUGS - those colors will awaken your creative juices!

Linking up with:
Twofers - Tea, Coffee or me
Virginia's view - all about color

Holy...this guy looks exactly how I feel this morning. Right down to his color and expression. Fortunately, he has coffee to perk him up...not sure that's going to work for me. I love this card, though. Especially the bunny slippers. The colors are inspired, so fun and gay. This coffee lover's card hop is such fun to see. Whole bunch of talent out there but no one can outshine you.

Awww...Poor monster. He doesn't look confident in the powers of his morning cuppa joe.
Oh my gosh!! Cornelia!!! when did you sneak up on me to take this picture!!!!! how terribly embarrassing, LOL!!

This is just how I feel in the mornings when I'm coming downstairs at 4am. to get that much needed cup of coffee.
How adorable is this little cutie pie??!!!
Love those bunny slippers, so sweet, both have resign expression that seems to echo that of their owner.

Katzelkraft - Stampotique Raven

Hi Everyone, Do you know that   Katzelkraft has aquired Stampotique stamps? This fun raven is designed by Daniel Torrente (#6314). I used an old background from my stashs.  I stamped the bird and colored it with alcohol ink markers.  I brushed distrss ink onto the background and added some pattern with the   Mandala Magic stencil  from Funky Fossil Designs.I used one of the border stamps on the left for more interest.  Stamped the sentiment  and doodled a frame around the sentiment.Added a googly eye to the bird and drew in some eye lashes.  The stamps I used are from the following sets: Spiral Borders - KTZ286,  Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276  (FRANCE) Spiral Borders  - KTZ286 , Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276 (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping! Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  - fur or feathers

Combined So Suzy and The Ton Blog Hop

Hi Everyone, I am sooooo excited to be part of this amazing event - a combined hop between So Suzy Stamps and The Ton! I have been eyeing The Ton stamps and dies for quite a while - they are just gorgeous! And So Suzy - well you have seen their stamps on my blog - they are simply fabulous! I also love that they are made from rubber - its different stamping with them. Its much better for generational stamping and they don't stick to your paper when you use your Misti. You may have arrived from the fabulous  Eunji - its a hard act to follow her.... I got those gorgeous  Peonies Dies  from The Ton and die cut them with water color paper. Spritzed Dylusion inks on a sheet of plastic and dipped the dies into the colors. Mounted them onto black card stock. Added the So Suzy Birthday sentiment - heat embossed in white. Lastly I added a strip of envelope liner paper at the bottom. Here are my supplies: So Suzy Birthday sentiment ,  Peo...
