Princess

Hi everyone, happy Tuesday! 

Here's a card using the Princess Diary Digital Papers from Mindy Terasawa Designs. 

I paired the papers with this Princess stamp from The Greeting Farm and a fuchsia pink cardstock. I did a little cut & paste with the crown from another image just to make it match the papers. The sentiment Everyday Greetings stamp set and Framed Tags Columbus Circle are from Mama Elephant. The image is colored with Copics. I added three pink enamel dots on the bottom right corner to complete my card.

The Greeting Farm - July Guest Designer

Hi everyone, I am super excited to announce that I will be a Guest Designer for The Greeting Farm for the month of July! My history with TGF goes way back to guesting in 2012, being on the Design Team in 2013, and guesting again in 2015. If you haven't realized it yet, I love The Greeting Farm.

Today's project share is my July monthly layout in my planner (Hobonichi A6). It's my birthday month so I went all out and used several stamp sets:

This Week

Hello Gorgeous

Tiny Plans 2

Feels

The images were stamped onto sticker paper for easy application. I used my Copic markers to color all the images and had no issues blending. To add some sparkle, I used Star Dust Stickles.

Skin: E00/E11/BV00/R81/R83

Hair: E71/E74/E79

Pinks: R81/R83/R85

Turquoise: BG10/BG13/BG15

Yellow: Y13/YR23

The pages of my planner measure roughly 4x6, so all the images fit perfectly. If you want to use these colored images again and don't have the time to color, here's a TIP: Once your full page of images are colored, scan the page and keep it on file. When you are ready, pull up the file and print it out onto sticker paper and it's ready to go.

I hope you guys enjoyed my little project using these cute planner stamps. Thank you so much for stopping by. See you soon for more projects!

Some Odd Girl Design Team and July Freebie

 Hi everyone! Today I'm excited to share that I am on the Some Odd Girl Design Team! I used to be on the DT back in 2016 and I took a break (because I was expecting my first baby). That "break" turned out to be a two year hiatus LOL. Now fast forward to 2019 and I'm back b*tches!

 Here I am using the JULY FREEBIE image Cancer. July is my birthday month and she is kickass! I paired her up with Ninja Tobie. I created a mini fight scene by having these two characters face each other. For the background, I used a grid die from Mama Elephant and backed it up with vellum paper. The banner is from Lawn Fawn and I hand wrote the sentiment. Finally the images are adhered by foam adhesive for dimension.

Aloha - I Am Roses June Challenge

Hi everyone! Today a new challenge is up at the I Am Roses Challenge Blog. 

Welcome back to my blog, it's been a while and I have a project for you! Here I created a card using an image/sentiment from The Greeting Farm stamps. This was an image that I had colored previously and she went well with the papers that I wanted to work with. These digital papers are from Mindy Terasawa Designs. I love the navy and peach color combo.

I framed her out using a doily die and flowers from I Am Roses. I chose a deep navy colored flower (S15) and a small crochet flower, centered with a peach/gold gem. The mini lilies are a perfect peach color (LY3) and accented with white flowers (S10).

IAR 2018 Holiday Blog Hop

WELCOME! to the I Am Roses 2018 Holiday Blog Hop. 

Hi everyone, hope you are enjoying the hop so far. Today I made Holiday Name Place Cards.

These are very easy to make. I cut black cardstock at 5" x 5 1/4", score at 2 5/8" on the 5 1/4" side. I used a white gel pen to doodle the border and write the "name". 

I used a wired leaf garland some jute rope to create the mini wreathes. I used a variety of red IAR flowers and some small daisy leaves. I adhered everything with hot glue.

You can view a video of me creating one of these place cards over on my YouTube Channel: Paperdrama.

I Put A Spell On You

Hello, it's me again. Halloween is just around the corner and I decided to make this card. All images were colored with Copic markers. The main images are from Squad Ghouls (Sweet Stamp Shop), as well as Dragon and Happy Accidents (Sweet Art Society October Art Box). The background was created with Distress Inks and Distress Oxide Inks. I made a previous card from this stamp set here.

This time around, I only used one witch from the trio, the cauldron and the spell book.
