Sweet & Simple Challenge!

Some Odd Girl Facebook Community Challenge!

This challenge theme is Sweet and Simple!  I used clear stamp set Princess Tia and I decided to break out my Prismacolor pencil set.  It's been a while since I have used colored pencils and I was surprised at how long it took me to get it all colored.  I'm thinking I need to play with them more, but I am such a Copic marker addict!

One WINNER will receive a $10.00 gift certificate to the Some Odd Girl store.

Three WINNERS will receive a ‘Top Three’ badge for their social media page.   

This stamp set, Princess Tia, is now available as a "clearance sample" and is a super deal at $3.00.

Challenge runs until July 19 at midnight!

Stella Strawberry!

This is my last challenge as a Surprise Guest Designer at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!  It's the Wonderful Wednesday Challenge and the theme is always ANYTHING GOES!

I had to use Stella Strawberry as she is one of my old favorite rubber stamps, 

and I also used New Buds and Blossoms clear stamp set.

Wedding/Special Occasion Challenge!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, Saturday blog challenge

This week's theme is Wedding/Special Occasion!

Eeks!  Such a fun theme especially since I got to play with clear stamp set Let's Celebrate!  I had a blast working on this card and making it fancy.  Being a whimsical person, this was certainly out of my box, but I'm happy with the results.

Release Day at SOME ODD GIRL!

Here we go with Some Odd Girl's second day of new releases.  Naturally Gnome girl needs a friend so today we are introducing Gnome Fishing!  I also used a couple stamps from the clear stamp set Sunny Mae.  He is too cute for words!

Release day #3 is tomorrow, can't wait to show you what's coming next!

Watercolor time!

I recently got my Faber Castell water color pencils and naturally I've been playing with them.  I decided, since St. Patrick's day is just around the corner, that some green would be appropriate. Claudette, from The Greeting Farm stamp set Hatters, is my leprechaun. 

Messy House!

I have been thinking about playing with this tryfold stamp set from Art Impressions for a few weeks now and their current challenge got me motivated.

These stamps sets are a really cool thing, and I had a load of fun coloring the scene and adding the tile floor. I did get exasperated with my picture taking and finally just gave up.  Do you see the shadow on the picture below where the left side folds over the right - you see that brown line?  I just couldn't get rid of it, so pretend that shadow isn't there.

I'm entering this into the Art Impressions challenge #179, House and Home.

Stamp set is Messy House .

Paper Piece Challenge!

We got a new challenge starting today in our Facebook Community!  This challenge runs until March 15, 2016 at midnight.  Remember only Some Odd Girl digi stamps or clear stamps should be your featured image.

Will there be prizes?  YES!  One winner will receive a $10.00 gift certificate to the Some Odd Girl shop.  Three winners will receive the 'Top Three' badge for their social media pages.  Enter HERE!

The stamp set I used is Music Mae.  All her clothes and her hair are paper pieced, the rest of her is Copic Markers.

You can do hard paper piecing or easy, it's up to you.  All the Odd girls are excited to see what you create.

You are my Sunshine!

Let the SUNSHINE in!  The winters 'blahs' have me so I decided to create my own sunshine.  I had fun incorporating the stamp set Sunshiny Day from Pretty Cute Stamps into a Valentine card.  It may not scream love, but then sometimes we need something a little more low key.

Sunshiny Day

Love Challenge at Pretty Cute Stamps!

Come join the stamping challenge at Pretty Cute Stamps and get a head start on your Valentine's day cards.  The challenge runs from January 16 - February 6 and the theme is love.  

I used the stamp set Eskimo Kisses which is a great set for love or winter cards.  I wanted the fur to look dimensional so I used Stickles on each of the kids, sparkly Icicle on the girl and Picket Fence (off white) on the boy.  Sweet and simple card perfect for some kids I know!

Eskimo Kisses

Frenchie Kody!

Frenchie Kody is such a great stamp set from Some Odd Girl.  This is my very first time trying the 'no line' stamping/coloring method.  I think practice is in order for me to feel comfortable doing this, but I am pleased with this card.

REMEMBER there is still time to join in on the challenge at our FB community!  Challenge runs until January 19, 2016, theme ANYTHING ODD GOES!
