Tickled Pink Stamps Lil Pinkette Preview: Lil Easter Egg Faith

Hello, my friends! I'm back with the final preview for Tickled Pink Stamps' Lil Pinkette Easter release. Today I am sharing Lil Easter Egg Faith with you! Isn't she darling? I'm hoping her egg is paper mache, though, otherwise that is one ginormous chicken roaming around the countryside! lol Faith is colored with a combination of Copics and Prismacolor Art Markers. But it's mostly Copics at this point as my collection is growing weekly! I purchased two yesterday when I was in Michaels and then received happy mail today with my order of 12 new markers in it! I had ordered a bunch of greens since I've been using the same two green markers on everything for a year now! But anyway, back to Faith... The paper is from my stash. I believe it's called Easter Doodle from Moxxie. I used my Martha Stewart grass punch to create the bottom border. Flowers (the majority from WOC), seam binding, pearls, and some chipboard letters finish off the card.

Markers used: Copics (E11, E21, E00, E13, E15, E17, E19, R20, W4, W6, W8, E33, E34, YG03, R81, R85, Y32, V17) and Prismacolor Art Markers (143, 171, 192, 198).

I hope you'll head over to the Tickled Pink Stamps blog to see what the other extraordinarily talented {PINK} ladies have to share with you! And if you leave a comment there you will be in the running to win a digi Faith of your very own! All four images are being release tomorrow!

I'd also like to enter this card in the following challenges:
- Karen's Doodles: #99-Pastel Colors with a Twist (Easter)
- Make It Monday: #78-Anything Goes
- The Crazy Challenge: #108-Anything Goes


Thanks for stopping by! It is way past my bed time so I am off to catch a few winks before the start of another work day! I delayed in finishing my coloring and card assembly tonight. But I have a good reason! Castle was on. And he's just too yummy to miss!

Tickled Pink Stamps Challenges #55 - Color Challenge: Blue, Orange, Yellow, and Beige

What a week it has been! Zero motivation to craft, issues, and stress have caused me to waste away the week sitting on the computer. And even here I haven't been able to seem to get anything done! My biggest accomplishment of the week was acquiring 5 new Disney movies, 2 of which are currently "in the vault". It's lots of fun reliving these through my son's eyes, though, and I have to admit I'm enjoying myself (maybe more than he is! lol)!

I did manage to get one card made earlier this week for today's new Tickled Pink Stamps Challenge. If you haven't heard, this is one of the last TPSC ever as Kellie has decided to shut down the challenge blog. It is a sad day and a tough decision for her, but the entire team supports her and will be here until the end of February. Today's theme is a color combination and boy, did I groan loudly when I saw it: blue, orange, yellow, and beige? Whaaa? For whatever reason it screams "1970s" to me, but I actually discovered that I own an adorable paper pad from My Mind's Eye called Fine and Dandy with just the colors I needed! Who knew? So I printed off Lil Birthday Pinkette Faith and got to work.

Ms Faith is colored mostly in Copics with a few Prismacolor Art Markers thrown in. She is fussy cut and mounted with foam squares on top of layers and layers of fun! That sketch is from The Sketchy Challenge (#16), and as soon as I saw it I knew it was a must try! They are also holding a DT call so I thought it might be a good time to try for something new. When one door closes, another one opens, right? Well, I can hope so anyway! Along with the MME designer paper, I've used kraft as my beige as well as Chocolate Chip, Pumpkin Pie, and Apricot Appeal card stock from Stampin' Up. A doily, a Tim Holtz adage ticket, some flowers and a few pearl flourishes complete the card. I have to say that I am quite pleased with how she turned out! Not bad for a color combo popular the decade I was born!

And speaking of birthdays.... This pretty miss went straight into the mail to my crafty friend and design team teammate, Kathy Curry! Kathy's delightful work can be seen on her blog, Will Stamp For Wine. Happy Birthday, Kathy, and I hope the card hits your mailbox before this post hits your news feed!

Markers used: Copics (E11, E21, E00, E23, E25, E27, R20, Y35, Y38, YR04, YR07) and Prismacolor Art Markers (143, 198).

I'd also like to enter this creation in the following challenges:
- Celebrate the Occasion: #49 - Anything Goes Birthday
- My Time to Craft: #172 - A is for Adorable
- Birthday Sundaes: #42 - Birthday Card with Sentiment
- The Lily Pad: Patterned Paper

Thanks for the visit and stop back this weekend for the much anticipated Sassy Studio Designs FAN-tastic February release!

Tickled Pink Stamps Preview Day 3 - Lil Christmas Pinkette Faith and TPSC - RIP

And I'm back with another dual purpose creation! This one is a preview of Tickled Pink Stamps Lil Christmas Pinkette Faith (isn't she darling?) as well as my design team card for the new Tickled Pink Stamps Challenge that starts today, which is RIP. No, not rest in pieces, er peace! Although I'm sure if you wanted to interrupt it that way that would be fine too! lol Especially since I love Halloween! We want to literally see you rip something. I ripped my sheet music designer paper and sponged the edges with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Vintage Photo. The sketch is from Get Hippity With Ippity (#5) which I discovered through Feline Playful.

Pop on over to both TPS blogs to see the gorgeous projects from my teamies and so you can play along! By commenting on Ms Faith on the TPS blog you are entered for a chance to win her for your very own! And we hope to see you play along over at TPSC. Remember, you MUST use a Tickled Pink Stamps image from one of the following lines for these challenges: Lil Lolitas and Lil Lads, Lil Pinkettes, Pink Pets, and Cherrie.

Thanks again for having a look at my work. I love hearing from you so I hope you'll leave me a comment to say "hi" before you go!

Enjoy your day!
