I'm Just Here For The Snacks | New Design Team Announcement

I'm so excited to finally be able to share that I'm joining the Pajama Crafter Stamps design team!! I will be on the Night Owl team which means I'll work with the crafty goodies in the store that aren't new releases but still amazing!

If you haven't ever taken the time to "meet" the owners of Pajama Crafter Stamps, check out this blog post HERE! I loved learning more about the company and the purpose and people behind it!

Onto my card to celebrate joining the team! I adore the Hog Your Shine stamp set and thought it would be fun to use for today!

One of my favorite movies is Ever After and there is a part where one of the step-sisters says, "I'm only here for the food" so when I saw the sentiment that said, "I'm just here for the snacks" I knew I had to use it plus, it's not wrong since I do love snacks, LOL!

That pig is awesome! I stamped him on Marshmallow Coloring Paper and colored him up with my Copics!

Copics Used:

Shadow/Grass: BG10, YG13, YG11

Pig: E13, E11, R20, R30, E50

I kept the design pretty simple embracing that white space so the pig and sentiment could shine. The Spring Plaids paper is so pretty and worked well with the pig.

I can't wait to share more creations with you using Pajama Crafter Stamps products! Be sure to check them out and follow all their socials!

Have a wonderful day and go do something for yourself and go get crafty!!

Crafty Stamp Co. Mama Ayla Card Inspiration

Hello crafty friends! Today I have a pretty mother-to-be card using the Mama Ayla Stamp Set from Crafty Stamp Co. I wanted to do some different colors than the typical baby/mother-to-be cards so I went with some yellows and oranges. I also decided to not use your typical papers and used the beautiful Summer Lemons & Daisies 6x6 Paper.

I used a die from my stash to create the layout for my card that helps to highlight Mama Ayla and the different baby accessories. The give the cardstock layer some texture I embossed it.

Mama Ayla and the accessories are colored with Copics and have white gel pen highlights.

Copics Used:

Skin/Lips: E13, E11, E0000, R20, R27

Hair: E57, E55, E33, E53

Eyes: YG67, YG63

Dress: Y28, Y26, Y23

Stroller: W6, C7, YR15, YR14, YR12

Onesie: YR27, YR24, YR23, YR21

Bottle: E13, E11, BG10

Butterfly: YR21, YR23

Rattle/Pacifier/Teether on inside: YR27, YR24, YR23, YR21, YR15, YR14, YR12

I added some dimension by adding some foam tape to the cardstock layer and also to all the images.

I finished off the card by stamping the sentiment, "Being a Mother is learning about strengths you didn't know you had", on the inside and carrying the theme inside with more baby accessories.

I really love how it came out and think it is just so beautiful! Have a wonderful day and go do something for yourself and go get crafty!
