YOU Rock!

Good morning! My followers have grown to 276 and I am so grateful to you! So this one is for you!

I used Totally Stampalicious', Rockin' Frawg to make this bright card! There is always a Monday challenge which you can find HERE at the blog!
Today's is to make a shape card-different from the normal A2 size. Now I didn't know what the challenge would be when I made my card, but I can't enter anyway-YOU CAN!
My Frog is simply colored in R81 and R83 and her guitar is colored in E17 and E25 with a little YR24 for blending.
I've added a little Spica gold pen for the guitar strings. The sentiment in the set is in one line, but I used my SU black marker to make it into 3 lines to fit my punch.
Thanks for stopping by! Lots coming up this week! There will be a CCC challenge, a Mo's DT event and I get to make a surprise appearance (Wed.) for a new release from another company.
having the day off is great! I better get to my stamping!
Hope you have a great day! Happy Thanksgiving to all Canadians! Happy Columbus Day to fellow Americans!

Happy Froggin' Friday!

I'm so happy that the weekend is starting! (Well, after work today, it is!)
I made this card for a fella with a birthday coming it up and to let you know about the Totally Stampalicious challenge for the week-to make a guy card! I kept mine simple, 'cuz that's how guys are! (JK!!)

Details are at the Totally Stampalicious blog!
This guy is from the Rockin' Frawg set that is available here at Totally Stampalicious.

He was so much fun to color! I had to start with him being the traditional greens, but I already have him (her?) colored up in pinks for another card! There are lots of other stamps in the set, too!

Here are the colors I used:
YG91, 93, 95 and 97 (these are must have greens!)
YR24 and E25 for the guitar, and I just grabbed a coral color for mouth and cheeks and am not sure which one!
He colored up very quickly!
I don't have a star punch so I used my SU 5 petal flower to simulate the star! A little clever, I thought!

I'm so happy to say that Mo has accepted me to join the Digital Pencil Too design team! Whooo Hooo am I every happy about that! She has put together TWO great teams. I'll get links connected this weekend, but I just wanted to tell my good news in case you hadn't seen it. I'll have a card tomorrow made with one of her digital images.

Thanks so much for visiting! My number of followers keeps growing and I can't express how appreciative I am to YOU!! I'm getting some blogoversary candy together because that's in less than two weeks!
Have a great FRIDAY!! (Just the word makes me happy, happy, happy!)
Hugs, Cheryl

Totally Stampalicious!

Hi! A totally new stamp company hit the scene on September 15! Joycelyn and Rebecca asked if I would be one of their guest designers for the kickoff of their new company, Totally Stampalicious and they released FOUR sets on that day! Meet Old Brawd! She comes with a larger cake and Five great (touching AND funny!) sentiments! As you can see she is large enough to fill the front of my A2 sized card but if you check out the Stampalicious Blog you will see how she also works if you cut out a portion of her!
Great card, Joyce! And while you're there please read the details on the Monday challenge! You can participate and have the chance to win a 25.00 gift certificate to Totally Stampalicious!

I usually do the "cute" cards and these sets offer a fun change for me and a chance to get some adult cards made up, 'cuz I have a lot of Old Brawd friends! I can call them that since I'm one too! (Though I think I've heard that 50 is the new 40!)

Please check out the other designers and their fabulous work with Hawt dog, Old Brawd, Road Hawg and Rockin' Frog!

Do you want me to list the copics I used? I have them jotted down and can edit later if you want them. Paper is from October Afternoon, Weathervane collection, ribbon from All that Scraps and buttons from Papertrey Ink.

Have a Stampalicious Day!
