Cutie Pie Valentine - Sunday Stamper Challenge

Just a little tag I made with Artistic Outpost's retro inspired "Cutie Pie" stamp collection.  I had fun using just about every pinkish Distress Ink color with the exception of Worn Lipstick.  I think I might have found a little "girly" side to my stamping.  Something I rarely find.

Since Hels went easy on us this week, I decided this could count for the "eyes" theme at Sunday Stamper.    Maybe I can make a habit out of starting my week off with a crafty challenge!

Have a great week!

I do believe in fairies.

Fairy godmothers, fairy godfathers, the fairies that live in BonTemps, LA in True Blood... Yep, they are all real.

Simplify.

I do hope Thoreau liked birds because I have combined one of his famous quotes from our Old Grist Mill collection with Birds of a Feather. I would assume that he would think birds live a simple existence. It is not like they carry designer handbags, nor worry about whether the home decor trend for 2012 is Eco inspired or southwestern. As for my handbag, I bought it on sale at Macy's and it reminds me of a stamp release that will be coming soon. My home decor is what you would call "I have a five year old who thinks his airplanes should be displayed alongside family photos and vintage crocks". So, maybe our style is best summed up as eclectic mismatch.

Thanks for stopping by,

Keep Calm and Carry On

Just a little tag I made using our Loverly London and London Underground stamps. I am on a monochromatic thing right now, using lots of Distress Inks and finding ways to blend and shade with just the ink.

Thanks for looking and have a Loverly day!!!

Think and Wonder

We are having a warm winter thus far. Fans are on in the bedrooms, and though I will dread this come February or even tomorrow, I do wish for just a little snow. Just enough to have a reason to stay inside, make hot chocolate, and get cozy.

This card features images from our Think and Wonder and Sleigh Ride collections.

Thanks for stopping by,

Wendy and Peter

As I sit down to watch the second season is Downton Abbey, it goes without saying that I am a bit of an Anglophile.
This card was inspired by Suzanne Czosek, who created a lovely card young Wendy and Peter flying above London.
I always pictured them sitting on the floor, but now I see them floating and talking and sharing their tales of Neverland. Stamps are all from our Neverland collection.
Thanks for looking, and never grow up!!!
