Celebrate One Cupcake at a Time!

I've been playing with my wonderful new The Cat's Pajamas supplies. I was so lucky to win last month's challenge! Here is one of the adorable bunnies ready for a birthday party. This is for a friend's birthday and since it's a summer birthday, I was able to use some fun paper I had in my stash--lots of yummy watermelons. There was even a pattern that worked for the paper-pieced cupcake and an envelope liner. There's still lots of time to enter this month's "Summer" Challenge. It goes until the end of the month.

Stamp set is TCP One Bunny. The sentiment is from PTI. And inside I used the sentiment that came with the bunny "Celebrate One Cupcake at a Time". Colored with Copics.

Thank you so much for coming by. 

Hope you are enjoying your summer so far,

Sharron

"Outdoors" at The Cat's Pajamas

Here is a VERY late entry to the current challenge at The Cat's Pajamas. I have been coloring some of the images from my newest set. There are three adorable images in Live More. Today I colored with Prismacolors and stamped a sentiment from Mama Elephant. A PTI die helped add a little trim to the image. The watercolor-look paper is from a pad called Melon Patch that I found at Micheal's.

Sending this off for a friend's summer birthday!

Thanks for stopping by,

These little guys are so adorable. Luckily I still have more!

There are several sets of Leading Ladies over on the Ellen Hutson blog. She was so easy to color. I hope to add some of these to my craft room soon.

This image and the one in my last card are from Waffle Flower Stamps. 

Gotta love these sweet bunnies from The Cat's Pajamas!

Hope you are having a good summer. I love that you took some time to come by for a visit. And we always hope you get a little inspiration from our creations. 

If you are somewhere with high temperatures like we are having here in Kansas, try to stay cool!

Hugs,

TCP Tuesday Challenge #327: THE OUTDOORS

Summer fun and a day at the beach! Little bunny is having a great day making his castle, pretty good don't you think! I absolutely love all the images in this Live More set that was released last month at The Cat's Pajamas. I was even lucky enough to win a gift certificate during the release too. I had purchased a pad of paper at Michael's ages ago with wonderful ocean patterns that were perfect for my cards. Both are colored with Prismacolor pencils. And both sentiments are from Hero Arts Monthly Kit June 2018. 

.

Supplies:

Stamps: Live More (The Cat's Pajamas), Sentiments from Hero Arts Monthly Kit-June 2018

Papers: Stamper's Select White, Kraft,  Weathervane (PTI); Coastal (DCWV); Red from stash

Dies: Fancy Circle (Studio Katia); Stitched Rectangles, Stitched Circles (Lil' Inker)

Additional: Wink of Stella Clear

(Please excuse my slight slip with my die on card two. I'd already done all the coloring so felt it had to do!)

Thank you so much for paying a visit. There is still time for you to participate in the challenge and it's a great way to celebrate summer!

The 12 Kits of Occasions: May with Nancy "You're a Good Egg"

What a fun month! Our hostess is Nancy, Artful Notions and she sent us an amazing kit of farm related images and sentiments. She even raises chickens! Being a city girl I am always fascinated with what it would have been like to live on a farm as my husband did. Nancy included fun little critters that I was able to enjoy coloring. And there was the most amazing set from Stampin' Up that featured clever chicken images. They were such a joy to use. I was even able to save one to use after seeing what the other 12 Kits members make!  Included was also wonderful papers and embellishments that coordinated with the theme. Below is Lindsey's great collage which shows you some of the supplies. And thank you, Nancy, for a super enjoyable month!!

Nancy has also asked two friends to join us this month as guest designers. So there will be lots to see. Click HERE to connect with the 12 Kits blot where there are links to all the blogs. A list of supplies can be found at the top of the blog.

I THINK THIS IS MY FAVORITE! I JUST ADORE THE CHICKEN! THE BOTTOM SENTIMENT IS FROM SIMON SAYS STAMPS.

ANOTHER GREAT CHICKEN! THERE SHE IS WITH HER UNHATCHED BABIES WHEN SHE SUDDENLY SEES ONE HAS HATCHED!!

AREN'T THESE LAWN FAWN CRITTERS ADORABLE!

I ACCIDENTALLY MESSED UP THE DIE CUT SENTIMENT BUT WANTED TO USE IT ANYWAY. I DIDN'T MEAN TO PUT IT ON THAT PAPER WHERE THE LINES WOULD BE CROOKED.

Thank you so much for coming by for a visit and letting me share this wonderful kit. Hope you enjoy the hop and get lots of inspiration!

Have a wonderful weekend!

The 12 Kits of Occasions: April with Lisa "My Little Chickadee"

Are things blooming where you live! Our weather has been so strange but at least there is lots of green. I guess Spring has finally officially arrived! The theme for this month's 12 Kits of Occasions is a favorite for me as birds are something my hubby and I have always shared.  And I loved the supplies that this month's very talented hostess, Lisa from My Paper Tales, sent. Her kit contained the sweetest images with fabulous sentiments and lovely papers, as you can see in the photo below. I can't wait to see what the others have made. I have lots of leftovers that are waiting to be used!

Lisa has also invited a special guest to be this month's guest designer. I just peeked at one of her awesome cards and you will want to visit her blog as well as the blogs of all our members. Just click HERE to connect with the 12 Kits blog. A list of Lisa's supplies can be found at the top. I hope you enjoy visiting as much as I enjoyed creating with the wonderful supplies!!

LOVE THE CLOTHESPINS!

THE FEATHERS AND THE VELLUM WORKED SO WELL TOGETHER AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE SENTIMENT FROM SERENDIPITY STAMPS.

THE SENTIMENT FOR THIS CARD CAME FROM PTI'S SPRING HILLS SET.

Thank you so much for taking time to visit! We love having visitors to our blog hop and hope you have a wonderful time!

Time Out "Wild"

The Time Out Challenge "Wild" is the perfect theme for me to get out my Gerda Steiner stamps. This was a great choice to do some masking too. I've been volunteering at our Zoo so knew I would find many ways to use these fun sets. The Go Wild and Party Animals sets go so well together. I colored these with Copics and Prismacolor Pencils.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    

Thanks for much for stopping by. Be sure to come back on Monday when the 12 Kits will be posting their April reveal!
