Live Out Loud Chick

Happy 'Avengers Age of Ultron release day' Eve!  Wow, that's a mouthful. Lol. I can't wait to see the uber sexy Chris Evans aka Captain America, along with the rest of the avengers, kick some ultron ass. Swoon!

I used the Kraftin Kimmie WW April Sketch and the B/W Challenge

Today is my day over on the Quick Creations Blog. I'm showcasing a Kraftin Kimmie stamp along with some beautiful Bo Bunny paper. I created a mother's day card for my friend that is one of the least conventional mothers I know :). Her favorite band is Metallica, who she has braninwashed to like :) and loves creating and crafting in black and white. So inspired by her, I went for this look. It was the first time creating this look with markers. I'm not great with markers so I hardly use them but I need to practice to not be fear them. lol. All items have links to the Quick Creations Shop. While there, make sure you take a look around as QC is having a sale. You get an extra 20%off on top of her low prices. This is the time to stock up, so go on over and check it out. Thanks for stopping by!

Toot Toot Thursday: From The Crypt

L-R: Betty, Lola, Christian, Rio, Miller and London.

Hi All! I'm back for another Toot Toot Thursday over at Simply Betty Stamps. This Thursday is also known as "From The Crypt" because we want to showcase images that may have been forgotten due to all the awesome new images that have been released. Well I decided to go way back to The Crypt and do a showcase on the Original Everyday Emos. The cute and quirky characters that put Betty on the blogasphere map. 

L-R: Rio, Miller and London

My project for you today is a set of 6 mini 3x3 cards. I recently created a set of square mini cards featuring the Halloween Sweet Gothic Kids, click Here to see post, and I liked them so much I decided to do it again. However to not bore you so quickly, because you will be seeing a few of these coming up ;), I decided to create them round. I really like this look and they still fit in a small package, which makes them readily available for gifting or personal use.

L-R: Betty, Christian and Lola

I kept this set a little cleaner from the previous one but I tried to spice it up by using Kraft paper, different everyday sentiments and use black as my focal color. All images where colored with Prismacolor Pencils, including the bottom card.

OK my fellow SBS lovers and Scrappy Friends, I'm hoping you enjoyed my Toot Toot Thursday.  If you decide to create your own set, I would love to see it so make sure you come back and tell me.

PS. I created this project using digi stamps but it makes it easier if you have rubber or clear stamps ;) so pop on over to the Simply Betty Shop and pick up some of these quirky original Emos, now available in clear form.  In honor of my post, Betty created a mini SALE! SALE! SALE! The everyday Emos are now on sale for $4.50 each. This offer is limited so make sure to order yours before its over.

And while you are at the Simply Betty Shop, make sure to pick up the new Teen Scene Halloween line. That was an amazing release? I'm sooooooo loving Mummy London and Lola Addams as well as Betty Addams and the rest of the crew. Make sure you get them while they are hot ;) because they are selling quickly and once they are sold out they wont be back for a bit. 

Also don't forget to link up in our current challenges happening at the Simply Betty Challenge Blog: Anything Halloween challenge and a Treat Container challenge. You can double and create a Halloween Treat container and enter both challenges. The prizes are awesome!! You do not need to use a SBS image but we would love to see you use one.

Happy Thursday! Please make sure to come back tomorrow for a Special Post that I've been Over the Moon excited about!!!!  Thanks for stopping by/commenting.

Hello! and Hop Winner

Happy Saturday!  I hope you had a fun week and are enjoying your mid morning so far. I want to apologize for my bloggy silence. I have been quite busy with some personal stuff which has kept me away (nothing bad, all good). However, I managed to squeeze in some crafty time every night. It only took me a week to create this flower power card. Lol.

Today's card features the technique Charcoal, which is black coloring on kraft paper. The highlights are done with white pencil or pen. I learned this technique from a TGF farmer, sorry the name escapes me at the moment. She's amazing with her cards and coloring. I still need to practice this technique some more but for right now I'm very happy with my outcome.

The image used is Lil Lolita Willow digi from Tickled Pink Stamps (**now only found in rubber form**). The image is colored with Prismacolor Pencils.

I will be playing along with:
