Pearly Sparkles March Challenge ~ Include a Sentiment or Verse

Hi Crafty Friends,
Today I'm sharing my March Pearly Sparkles' design team project and inviting you to join our March challenge.I attended the Create and Color Boot Camp in January which featured stamps and dies by LaLa Land Crafts.  Coloring for this image was taught by the amazing Jennifer Dove.  I fell in love with this image and these dies, especially since my son-in-law is a house painter.  This card was inspired by a project we created in class.

I used the Painter Luka stamp set which included the sentiment.  The background was created using the LLLC paint splatter stencils and the fun paint brush die set.  Luka was colored using Copic Markers.

Passionate Paper Creations & Friends ~ CC Designs Sponsorship

Hi Crafty Friends,
We're showcasing projects from our latest sponsor, C.C. Designs, over on the Passionate Paper Creations & Friends Facebook page.
My project uses the newly released Axolotl Clear Stamp set.
My design was inspired by Irina Blount, owner and creator at LaLa Land Crafts.  Irina lives in Northern California and I have been fortunate to attend her many trunk shows and make and takes at our local craft store in Lodi, CA. My inspiration project was shared at her last make and take at the store.

All of the die cuts are from LaLa Land Crafts along with the stencils I used for the outside and background.  The images were cut out using a Scan NCut 2, the dies with my Gemini Jr.  I colored using Copic markers.
Please visit the PPCF page during the sponsorship and, of course, we'd appreciate your support of C.C. Designs.

Passionate Paper Creations & Friends ~ Artful Angel Sponsorship

Hi Crafty Friends,
I'm sharing a project from Passionate Paper Creations & Friends' newest sponsor, Artful Angel.  This is an online craft store featuring products from a variety of crafty talent
I chose to use a stamp set from Kraftin Kimmie called Tiny Tea Party.

The stenciled background is LaLa Land Crafts Daisy stencil.  I think it was a great background for the patterned papers I chose for the tea cup.  I did some paper piecing on the cup and saucer and then colored the mice friends with Copic Markers.  The dies are also from LaLa Land Crafts.
