Sunday Funnies ~ 4th Edition: You're SUPER, girl!

Hey girl! ← in my best Ryan Gosling voice,
 LOL!

 

You're SUPER, girl!

I so loved the soft, subtle colors from this week's MFT Card Challenge #94!

I normally make a bee line and zero straight in on brights, bolds, vivids!

This was such a refreshing change to color/create with a softer palette.

These colors - so yummy!

 

This is my final blog series in the Comics Sunday Funnies ~

it's been so much fun coming up with different themes

and the nostalgia of picking up the Sunday papers for the comics section ♥

 I grew up in the Wonder Woman era (go Linda Carter!)

and love how inspiring she was to my generation :)

I used my a My Favorite Things stamp You're Super by Birdie Brown

that I was super lucky to get during their $10 sale back in February.

Then I had to go back and buy the matching dies during another sale :)

 I've wanted this set since forever so I'm happy to know have both!

 I made this card by creating a 'city' with the city-scape stamp twice,

 stamped with mint green ink and 

then die-cutting both to make an elongated city in the background. 

 Then, i stamped/die cut and colored supergirl and her shield, 

coloring both in the colors of challenge #94. 

 Lastly, I stamped out the sentiment that best fit the friend

 that will be receiving this card from me ♥ 

 Thank you all for your visits, especially during the Sunday Funnies series!

 It was really SUPER!

Big hugs, bigger blessings!

 I'll enter my card into the current @mft challenge.

CCEE1821 ~ N.E.W.S!

Hello friends!

It's time for a new challenge at the CCEE Stampers 

and Anne has a new challenge for us.

She writes:

I wake up in the morning to the NEWS.
  Make a card using each of these letters ..... N, E, W, S.

Thanks, Anne!

Here is my card feauting the news:

N = Night

E = Evening, enamel dots

W = Windows, WHAM!

S = Superhero 

To make this card, I used a night time city space idea

but creation a cityscpape with the Tim Holtz dies.

I ran it through the cuttlebug twice, once in black and once in yellow.

After popping out the small squares for windows, I let the yellow shine through like light.

Next, I popped up the tiny hero from Mama Elephant

and added some glittery silver enamel dots.

 And if you'd like to be in the running for blog candy giveaway from me

with the comicbook/Sunday comics theme,

you can read about it in the first series post here!

Be sure to stop by and see what the other CCEE Stampers
made with this theme ~ it will be fantastic!

Sunday Funnies ~ 3rd Edition!

Hi there, friends!

KAPOW!
You're really super!

I got such a late start to the day for posting my card :/

We just got in from a vacation weekend

so I'm finally editing this post :)

I made this card using the tiny heroes from Mama Elephant ~
cute right?
I have so many ideas for this stamp set!
I wanted the super hereos to 'fly' in the scense I'm creating so 
I fussy cut the images.
The die cuts are from the massive Hobby Lobby clearance hall ~ $1.25!
It was a 3 pack of Momenta cityscape dies and a really wonderful find!
It was a perfect match for the scene building ..
I went with one in darker black for the background, 
and a lighter grey for the forefront.

And that's today's card!
Leave a comment below and I'll add it to the random selection 
after next weeks' card!

Big hugs, bigger blessings! ♥

Sunday Funnies - second edition!

 

Hello friends!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mommies,

grandmas, aunties, etc!

I hope your day was filled with beautiful blessings ♥

I'm getting a late start to the Sunday paper today ~
I had a bad accident this week and am still recovering ...

BUT, as they say, laughter is the best medicine :)

So today's card is slightly different than I had intended

for the Sunday Comics - second edition.

If you are a new reader or missed the new blog series annoucement,

you can start on Week 1 here!

Each week in Sunday, I'll have a new Sunday Comics post

AND you'll have up to 4 chances to win the giveaway :)

 This card features the new Mama Elephant stamps Boom Boom ~

it's soooo cute!

I used bright, vivid colors to compliment what you see in the Sunday paper

comics section.

This stamp and die set comes with these 3 little characters

but I have to say - the one in the middle with the thumping heart is 

what got me when I saw it!

I love it!

They are popped up on 3d foam and the sentiment, while originally was

also going to be popped up on foam, ended up being flush to the card

so I could add in some enamel dots to give the card a little more character :)

Leave a comment below it you'd like to be in the running for the 

giveaway at the end of the month!

Let's get to know each other better .....

what is your favorite color combination when crafting?

 

So glad you could stop by today!

Big hugs, bigger blessings ♥
