Pink Cat Studio New Release Thursday

Happy Thursday.....I usually post first thing in the morning, but I was exhausted this morning, so here I am a little bit late, but I am feeling so much better (after a little nap).

As many of you know, Thursday's=Pink Cat new Release day, and I love me some Pink Cat Studio images, and today is know different. I used the newly released Sick Lily. I think this is a great stamp. How often do you need to make a get well card, but you're not sure what image to use. This could be used for a adult or a kiddo. I also used the FREE sentiments that PCS offers.

For my card I used some random DP from a stack of DP that I need file back, and boy should you see this stack of DP. I am not kidding you when I tell you that it is 12 inches tall. I don't even know what I have.

So I have a question for you.......Have you tried any Digi Stamps yet, and are you comfortable using them? I am extremely comfortable with Digi, and these almost prefer them. I love the fact that I can purchase and get immediately. I also love that I can resize them to what I want.

For the people who are not comfortable with DIGi...guess what.....Pink Cat Studio has turned some for the Digi Images into RUBBER......Wahoooo.....

If you get a chance head on over to the PCS blog and check out the amazing projects the DT came up with. These girls are amazing.....Have a great day and Happy Creating.

Have a Yummy Holiday!

Happy Wednesday.....Are you having a good week? I can't believe how fast it is going by. Yahooo.....

Today I have a yummy card for you. While blogging one day last week, I visited Kristine's blog and came across a card she made using this "oh, so very cute" gingerbread girl image. Well, if any of you know Kristine, you know is extremely talented, and when I saw her card, I knew I needed to make one of my own. Although I did not case her card, I did use her card for inspiration. Her coloring is amazing.

Isn't this image adorable? It is from Digital Delights, which I had never heard of until I saw Kristine's blog, but boy are the cute, and this image was FREE. I think they do freebie Friday. Honestly, I have to actually sit and look at their website a little longer. No time extra time these days.....I also used this weeks Mojo Moday Sketch challenge. I liked this sketch, because it allowed me to use a few different types of DP. What do you think?

Well, a little short today, but I have a class in 20 minutes, so I must go. Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a FABULOUS day and happy creating!

Happy Friday the 13th!!!

Happy Friday all!! Aren't you glad it's Friday, and Friday the 13th at that. Do you believe in superstitions? I am not sure that I do, but I am not willing to jinx it either (hehehe).

Today I have a Inky Impression newly released image for you. the name of the stamp is Angelica's snowman. Isn't she cute. She is now on sale over at Inky Impression, along with some new embelleishments you should check out (hehehe).

I used SCS tutorial to make the snow globe card. Very easy card to make, and very fun. I am sure you will be seeing more of these cards to come. You can find the tutorial here.

Pink Cat Thursday-New Digi Releases

Happy Thursday. Are you having a great week? I have to say the Vetrans holiday was a really nice break in the week. Did you do any thing special?

So, Thursday=Pink Cat Studio New Releases. Oh, man are they cute. As you can see to your left, I made a simple card using the Penguins kissing image. Love this image. I am thinking about making a ornament with this image. It would be so cute.

My second card is made using another of this weeks Pink cat Studio images. I love the DP I used with this card. It seem to fit pretty good. I used this weeks SCS sketch challenge for this card. Simple and easy. I think it took me maybe 45 minutes. That is some fast time for me. I would say that I usually average 2 hours a card. How about you?

Well, that is all for me today. I have a research paper due date approaching, a Anatomy & Physiology test coming up, and I also have my nursing entrance exam next thursday. Lots on my plate right now. So, I will be doing some studying. How about you????

If you get a chance, head on over to Pink Cat Studio and check out what the very talented design team came up with.

Inky Dinky Drop Hop with Inky Impressions. New releases & prizes

Happy Day. Aren't you glad it's Friday? Well, this Friday the Team at Inky Impressions has some fun things for you. Nicole (the owner of Inky Impressions) is releasing her new winter stamps today.

Oh, my goodness are these cute or what. I chose to make a winter treat box using the new "Angelica's Sled" stamp. I really like that you can put whatever you want on the sled. I chose to use the new present stamp by Inky Impressions.

I used Inky Impressions new Inky Dinky dew drops in the cornor of my circle. These dew drops are smaller than most on the market, and they are fabulous for flower centers, accents, or just about anything. Nicole (owner) is also going to be carrying new ribbons, and homemade flowers. How exciting.........

Okay, Hopefully you started the blog hop at Nicole's blog here and went through the list and you should be arriving on my blog from Shary's blog. I hope you have left a comment on all the DT's blogs, as there is going to be a random prize drawn form on of the blogs.

From my blog, you want to head to Inky Impressions Guest Designer Darlene. Don't forget that the blog ends on the Inky's Challenge blog. I hope you are enjoying the blog hop, and I would love to know what you think of the new stamps. Have a great day and happy blog hopping!

PCS Thursday New Release and a Memorial

This week has been a very sad one as DT member Sarah Anderson’s 3 year old son Henry passed away. Little Henry was unable to overcome a virus that made him ill last week.

Lorie Ames has organized a way to donate for a memorial for Henry. Henry loved his local zoo and visited it almost every day in the summer. As a memorial, trees will be planted there in his honor. Melissa at Pink Cat Studio has created a digital stamp to help raise funds for a tree for Henry. All proceeds from the sale of the digi stamp, minus Paypal costs, will go towards the tree. If you would like to donate towards the tree, please visit this webpage to purchase the digi stamp: http://www.pinkcatstudio.com/Digital/DigiStamps/Animals/Zoo/GiraffeAndMonkey.htm

Another way to donate to the memorial is to print out this form and mail in your donation directly: http://www.ci.oshkosh.wi.us/Parks/PDF/MemorialTreePamphlet.pdf

Please write on the form that the donation is for Sarah Anderson’s son Henry. Once all of the money is collected, a tree and location will be selected. If you have questions about the form please contact Lorie Ames. Lorie will be in contact with Sarah along this memorial journey to ensure that her wishes are followed.
To contact Lorie, please visit her blog at http://www.live-love-laugh-create.blogspot.com/

If you don’t know Sarah and would like to learn more about her, please visit her blog: http://scrampinmama.blogspot.com/

Thank you for your help to raise money for a tree for Henry.

On a much lighter note, it's Thursday and Thursdays mean Pink Cat Studio new Digi Release.


Oh my Goodness, isn't she so super sweet? How often do you tell yourself that you are happy with a card you have made? Well, for me, that is very rare. I am always picking apart my cards. Well, not this one. I actually like this card of mine (hehehe). I was pleased with the paper combo, and happy with my little bit of coloring. I like it.

Know what else I like? EVERY single new release this week. Seriously, I could make a card with every single image. How cute are the new releases (see below). I have to tell you, I feel so fortunate to be on such a wonderful DT. Melissa the owner is not only extremely talented, but she is also so very sweet. I am loving being a part of the PCS DT. Thank you Melissa.

Please don't forget to check out the Henry Digi stamp. It's for a good cause, and I know that it would mean the world to Sarah to know we are all thinking about her at this hard time.


If you would like to send Sarah and her family a card, please contact me for her address.

Thank you for taking the time to stop by today!!! Have a great day and happy creating!

Inky Impressions Wednesday

Happy Hump Day! How is your week going? For all

of you that have the Fall time change, how are you
making out with that? I was figuring since we changed

the clocks back an hour we would get caught up on sleep. Well, not so much here. My family is struggling with the time change. My kids are whiny, and my husband has been in bed by 9:30 almost every night (he gets up at 5am). I on the other hand have continued to do my usual, up late and up early. No matter what goes on, I continue to push myself to get things done. Y0u moms know how that goes.






Ok, on to today's card (hehehe). Wednesdays= Inky Impressions Challenge. Today's challenge is a color challenge. Well, these are SU colors and and I barely use SU anymore, so I went with what I had. Also, when I see a color challenge, I usually have a moment of panic. What if I don't have a DP to match? What will I do. I know, I could just used card stock and embossing folders, but "I" can't. I cannot function without DP in my life (hehehe).

Seeing it is a Inky kind of day, I went with a Inky Image. I used Lili's Secret, and made a thinking about you card. I picked some random piece of DP from my stash, so I don't even know the name (sorry). I chose a simple layout and done.

Wanna play??? we would love for you to join us over on the Inky Impressions challenge group. You don't have to use Inky Impressions stamps (although if you have them, we would love to see what you made with them), and if you don't have time, but want to see what others made with the color challenge, then you can peek here.

Come check out what the Inky Impressions DT made. They are such talented ladies. Today the following ladies have cards up

FRIDAY NOVEMBER 6Th. INKY DINKY DROP HOP......New winter releases......
