Heres the Scoop....

This title couldn't be more accurate for today. Last night I did a little research and note taking to share some of the things I have found during my blog hopping.



1st ...there are new wooden stamps at Michaels and they are "go green" friendly. They have a cute owl (yes I have jumped on the owl bandwagon my friend thinks its funny b/c I said I wouldn't buy an owl stamp and now I have bought two in one week) and a circle sentiment saying "go green". I really think they are so cute and they are only a buck. Who could argue?



2nd...I am obsessed with the new GORJUSS GIRLS from sugar nellie. This very talented artist Julie Campbell got me hooked on them with her beautiful card! You definitely will want to check out this card. http://www.stampedinhisimage.blogspot.com/ She posted it on Saturday March 7th so you may have to scroll down.



3rd...MFT stamps has all kinds of things going on.



Bubble Bin

I just learned that every Monday they do a "What's in the bubble bin". It is a weekly special on certain stamp sets and they are at great prices. Check it out here http://www.mftstamps.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=43



Also if you head over to splitcoaststampers.com you can find the "Who's that girl" MFT challenge for 03/09. You will have to hurry though b/c you have to post a card by 3/11 to qualify for a prize. http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=164 The challenge requires you to use a "Who's that girl set" with paper piecing. Lucky for me I have one already made to share...but maybe I will make another.



4th...Another great stamper has some amazing posts on her blog you will want to check out...




-She has a cute card made with the Tea for Two set from MFT

-She made another cute MFT with the new bunny release

(bunny under tree drinking tea) say that five times fast :)



She also has a gorjuss girls card from Sugar Nellie that is just fantastic!





Okay well my card for today is simple but I am happy with the way it turned out. I used some papers from my 6x6 pad Sunshine Lollipops by Sassafras. This paper pack has a whole lot of colors that are bright and fun so I think this worked out well. I am still working on my copic coloring but I am definitely having fun during the learning process. I bought these cute brown felt flowers at my LSS and love them. Hope you like the card!


Have a Terrific Tuesday!
