Little Darlings RubberStamps!!! New Release Blog Hop!

giggle giggle giggle.... I am so excited! I have been asked to be the Guest DT June/July at Little Darlings RubberStamps!!!!  I am so excited!! I think I already said that.. but oh well I am so excited!!

And my first order of business as Guest DT is the June Blog Hop to show off the new release of Cutie Pie "In the Garden" You are gonna love these :0)

There are
4 Character Stamps
1 Sentiment Set
& 1 Background Stamp

And the challenge theme for the hop is Sugar and Spice (Girly)  YEA!

So if you got to me from Alberto's blog then you are on the right track, if not you might want to go back to the start of the hop Angela's blog so you don't miss a thing!

Here is my project -

I think I may have taken the "Girly" on a bit strong.... Lots of pink going on here! My card is an easel card that I die cut the top for more drama. I used papers from DCWV Whispy Garden collection.

For the new images I used -
Just Diggin' It - she is just adorable!
The Greenhouse Background stamp
and one of the sentiments from the new set. 

Here is a close up of the sentiment... they are all great, but I think I love this one the most.

And here is a close up showing the background stamp and Just Diggin' it that is pop dotted in front.

Other products that I used are Spellbinders Grandies Book Label to cut out the Greenhouse, Memory Box flower dies and leaves. Martha Stewart Frond and branch punches, Whimsy double scallop border woven with hot pink satin ribbon, white gel pen, and Viva Decor light blue Pearl Pen ( I have become addicted to all of these!)

HUGS and

Little Darlings Challenge - Boy Cards

Happy Sunday! Hope you are having a great weekend. Was a great mail week here... I got my Little Darlings order in! And it is is just in time for the current challenge - A Boy Card. Yea... hard huh? LOL.... I have such a hard time with those cards for the men in our life. I know we all do don't we? But it is a fact that we still need cards for the guys too.

Here is my card -

My Little Darlings image is called Buddies - I just think he too cute! Or is it that little frog? Oh they are both cute. I colored with my Copics - Then I went to work to find papers that were "boyish"  - I found My Minds Eye Miss Caroline Fiddlesticks pad - Perfect! I love the wood fence pattern paper! I cut out all my patterns along with a cream colored card stock - rounded all the corners. I used a kraft card stock for the base. I sewed down everything. Had some fun with a larger Zig Zag stitch as well. 

I dug through my old punches and found one of my fishers punches that create the corner slots - I haven't used it in forever. Then I found a piece of ..... of... I can't think of what to call it. "Webbing? Netting?" I have no idea, but it looked like it would go well with my image and card  - so I wrapped it around. Three Making Memories heritage brads, and then a piece of ribbon with "Thank You" printed on it.  I think it really would work for anyone... but for challenge purposes... this one is for a guy! 

A simple inside with matching pattern papers.

Have you played with the Little Darlings images yet? You have too! Really sweet and for their challenges you can use Little Darlings, Cutie Pies and now....Saturated Canaries!   Yep... lots of great images for this challenge! Visit the Little Darlings Challenge for more information -
