C.C. Designs Review - Warm Winter Wishes

Happy day before Turkey day everyone!!! I just finished my last bit of grocery shopping for tomorrow's feast.   Today I have another winter-y card to share with you.  It features the newly released Monkey Feet Puppy Snowman from C.C. Designs.  In case you missed any of the November release you can find them all here. 

I started (like I usually do) by stamping my image onto Copic X-press It paper with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  I then colored with my copics before cutting out using my *favorite* pierced rectangle die-namics from MFT.  I used kraft card stock for my base and a single piece of patterned paper for my layout.   Sentiment is from the newly released AmyR Christmas Sayings II. 

 

  

Here's a close up of my rolling sparkly hills using my beloved Smooch Glitz!

Good morning stamping friends!  And Happy Hump Day!  You know you are thinking of that commercial right now, aren't you?!  LOL!  I'm back with some more Christmas cheer.  Did you enjoy yesterday's posts?  In case you missed them there were 3, just scroll down. Go me!  Yesiree, it was a busy day on the blog front.  It's an exciting time for me and I hope you are enjoying it too. 

I couldn't be more excited about today's sneak peek considering it features my all time favorite animal - a kitty!  Midnight is back for another holiday.  This set, from Amy Young, features 4 adorable images with this frisky feline.   I loved how this turned out.  What do you think?

C.C. Designs November Sneak Peeks - Fuzzy Boots

Brrrrrr!  Can you feel the chill in the air?  Yes, the seasons have definitely changed. I finally pulled out the down comforter from the closet this weekend.  I may even go so far as to turn the heater on too!  LOL!   I have something a little warmer and very sweet to share with you today.  This cutie is one of the many new images being released Thursday, Nov. 7th at 9:00 EST.  She's called Fuzzy Boots and I'm just crazy about her.  I had so much fun coloring her.  Can you tell?  I used one of my favorite SSSC - 193 for my layout.  I used the colors from this older MME paper to inspire my Copic choices for her outfit.

Christmas with Ralphie - C.C. Designs Review

Hi everyone!  So happy you decided to stop by.  I know I don't say it enough, but thank you!  Thank you for taking time out of your day to see what's going on here on  Eat, Sleep, Stamp!  You may not realize how much your support and comments mean to me.  You guys rock!  ((((hugs))))

I need to apologize for not getting this posted last week.  In all the craziness (which is my life) my poor blog posts were neglected.   Today I'm sharing with you another image from Christmas with Ralphie by C.C. Designs.  This set includes 2 images.  I shared one with you HERE and this one.   

 

I kept the layout simple using two pieces of patterned paper from Simple Stories and sponged some kraft ink from MFT.  A little twine and a tree button to top it off.  I hope you like it.

Have a great day! 

 

More C.C. Designs Sneak Peeks - Santa's Helper

Hi again!  Did you enjoy yesterday's sneak peeks?  I told you it was beginning to feel a lot like Christmas.  I've got a little more holiday cheer to share with you today too.  And to help me out I've asked Swiss Pixie Santa's Helper.  Isn't she just adorable?  As usual, I stamped her onto Copic X-press It paper using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  I then colored her with my Copics.  For reds I use R24, R46 and R89.  For the greens I use YG11, YG17 and YG67.  I fussy cut her out before adding her to my card base which includes paper from Doodlebug Designs North Pole collection.  I created my letters using MFT die namics by the letter dies.

C.C. Designs Sneak Peeks - Ralphie's Christmas

Good Morning everyone!  It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas in my stamp room!  It was kinda weird switching gears from Halloween (even though it's still all over my desk) to Christmas.  But who could resist pulling out the red & green for such a cutie!  Today is the first day of sneak peeks for C.C. Designs.  All images and dies will be available for purchase this Thursday, Oct. 3rd at 9:00 am C.S.T.   First up is one of two images called Ralphie's Christmas.  I had so much fun coloring this little guy up. 

 

The layout may look familiar as I used Karen's SSSC194 (yesterday's post) as my starting point when creating my card.  All my patterned paper is from Echo Park Christmas This & That.  Something pleasantly unexpected happened while airbrushing this background yesterday.  The Copic was so juicy that it splattered some bigger drops of ink.  I like the way it turned out and I hop you do too!

Happy Birthday to You!

It's a day after the fact, but yesterday was my birthday.   Happy Birthday to me.  This year was pretty low key.  I guess that sort of thing happens the older you get.  I was perfectly happy with the birthday festivities.  As long as I have my family and loved ones with me it's the best gift a gal could ever hope for.  Here's to another healthy, happy year! 

Given this weeks festivities I decided to do a little circus celebration of my own for the C.C. Designs review.  Today I'm featuring Meoples Clowin' Around.  I asbolutely love how this turned out.  Very different color combo for me.  I used fun prints from My Mind's Eye - My Girl collection.  For a complete list of products I used to create my card, scroll to the bottom.

C.C. Designs Monkey Feet's Autumn Kitty

T.G.I.F.  We've made it peeps!  It's the end of another (grueling) work week.  I've been up to my eyes with work and it not going to slow down until the end of the year.  I keep having to remind myself to count my blessings and not let the stress get to me.    I'm looking forward to the coming weekend.  My daughter has signed up for her 5th grade volleyball team and they have their first practice this weekend.  I finally get to see her in action!  I'm also hoping we have some cooler temps too.  Contrary to belief about living in California, I'm definitely not a summer gal.  I'm eager for those cooler days to be upon us.  I'd even be happy with a little rain. 

 

I stamped this sweet kitty onto Copic X-press It paper and colored him with my Copics before cutting him out with my deckled rectangle nestabilities.  I kept the layout simple to focus on my furry little friend.

C.C. Designs September Sneak Peeks - Big Top Fun!

Can I get a woot-woot for Wednesday?!  We are almost there peeps.  The weekend is in sight and there's nothing but F*U*N* waiting for us. 

You can leave it to C.C. Designs to turn up the fun factor for this new release.  Everyone's favorite Meoples are back Clowin' Around.  Hence the name of this new set featuring 4 images.  I had an absolute BLAST coloring this card up.  I first stamped the circus tent and colored away with R22, R24, R89, W1, W3 & W6 for the red and grey parts.  For the ground I used E41, E42, E43 & E44.

The ticket was stamped with AmyR's Circus Sentiments then topped with some red Doodlebug Sprinkles. I just love how this turned out.  I'm going to save it for my youngest grandson's birthday.
