All Wrapped Up

I have this fun card featured over at Oak Tree Stamps today.  I'm not a huge Halloween crafter, but seriously, how could I not want to craft with this adorable mummy from the Wickedly Cute set?!?!?



I just love him and want to smooch his chubby cheeks!  He is colored with Copic Markers, and the paper is from Graphic 45 - An Eerie Tale.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.

Craftily yours,

Karen

Bubbles

Today is my 3 Girl JAM day!  It was 109 degrees when I started to craft something for today's post....so I chose some pretty fall colors for my card.  SO ready for Fall!  Sunshine from the Sunny Meadows bundle was the perfect 3 Girl JAM accessory!  This is what I made:


I also used some pretty 3 Girl JAM Light and Bright Lace!  The paper is the Basic Grey Recess collection, and the stamp is from Unity (colored with Copic markers).

You can pick up some 3 Girl JAM ribbon for a very sweet 10% discount using code KN10.  OR you can get the Hot and Cold bundle for just $1 w/ purchase.  Lets all hope for a little cold, huh?  :)

And if you haven't joined our 3 Girl JAM challenge this month (ANYTHING GOES w/ ribbon), be sure to check it out for a chance to win some yummy 3 Girl JAM goodness!

Birthday Chibi Boy!

Today, I'm sharing a FuN card using Chibi Boy Expressions Stamps from Oak Tree Stamps  There are a bunch of cute expressions that go with the boy face, and so many fun possibilities.  I have four sons (plus the large one I call husband), so I decided a (somewhat) masculine birthday card was in order.  Here's what I did:


I say it's only "somewhat" masculine because I just had to have hearts and bows!  My boys fully expect that.  I colored up his adorbs face with the following Copic markers:
Face:  E000, E01, E11
Cheeks:  R21
Mouth:  E4
Hair:  E41, E33, E35

I pulled that paper out of an old stash, and I haven't a clue what brand it is....but I'm super proud of using up some old paper!  The hearts are confetti hearts from UmWow Studio, the twine is from Timeless Twine, the sentiment is a Penny Black Celebrations Die, and the speech bubble is a Spellbinders Conversation Bubble 2 Die.

Thanks for stopping by on this Happy Humpday!  Please check out all the fun at Oak Tree Stamps! Also, stop and LIKE the Oak Tree Stamps Facebook Page for more fabulous inspiration!

Bear Hugs

Karen N here from Craftily Yours!  About once a month, I do a crafter-lunch at work.  I manage quite a few staff members, and many of them share my love for crafting.  As a treat, I design a card and bring in all the goodies, so we create a card together!

Here is the card I made:


I used two fun 3 Girl JAM crinkle ribbon colors in my card.  The first is from the Ribbon Candy Bundle; the second is from the Sunny Meadows Bundle.  That adorable bear is from Oak Tree Stamps.  (You can save 30% off your entire purchase there with code KN30!)   I colored his ears, nose, tummy and bear toes with Copic markers.  The paper is from MME. The frame around the bear is a Spellbinders die.

By the way, have you joined our 3 Girl JAM Challenge.  Anything goes with ribbon! Do you simply need some 3 Girl JAM goodies, be sure to use code KN10 at the 3 Girl JAM store for a cool 10% off!

Craftily yours,

Karen
