Release Day at DRS Designs!

Hope everyone is having a great weekend! Today is the July release at DRS Designs. All of the new designs are now available for purchase. There are a ton of cute new stamps this month.

One of my favorite new releases is called "3 Flowers with Butterfly". I couldn't stop playing around with this stamp. Fun to color and so versatile...

To see all of the new releases check out the DRS Designs site HERE.

Thanks for stopping by today! Stop back Monday for the LPS Monday challenge and a fun Shimmerz design team card!

Blingz Hummingbird!

Hope everyone is having a great week. Life is still busy but I'm finding a little bit of time to get some stamping done.
Today I wanted to share a card that I made using Under the Sea Shimmerz Blingz. A friend of mine asked me to make a card with a hummingbird on it and Shimmerz immediately came to mind. Hummingbirds are so beautiful and shimmery and I thought my Under the Sea Blingz would be perfect for my project. The hummingbird is a free digi stamp from Squigglefly. I colored the image with copic markers and then highlighted it with Under the Sea Blingz.

Speaking of Shimmerz...did you see that there are some fabulous new summer colors? You can see all of the new colors on the Shimmerz blog HERE.

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

DRS Designs Monday Challenge!

We would love for you to play along with us. Just a post a direct link to your creation in the comment section on the DRS Designs blog so we can come check it out. If you upload to public gallery, please use the keyword DRSC25.

I think I might have said this before but I thought I'd state it again as a little disclaimer before posting my project...I suck at non-card projects. Not sure why I can't step out of the card box but 3-D/gifty items are always extremely difficult for me. I had never made a genie bag before this challenge. Here is my bag...
Be sure to check out the DRS Designs blog to see all of the fabulous bags made by the design team!

Little Paper Shop Preview: {Angelic Jena}

Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend. I had a great time stamping with my friend Jen last night. Pizza, snacks, a few beverages, good conversation and 6 hours of child-free stamping...bliss!

Can you blieve it is time for the July Little Paper Shop previews? It seems like we were just doing the June previews. I can't believe how fast the summer is flying by!

Today's preview is an absolutely ADORABLE set called {Angelic Jena}.

{Angelic Jena} sits atop a beautiful crescent moon! She is sweet, innocent and a super-versatile image for birthdays, babies or "just because".

Want to WIN this set? Leave a comment on today's post on the Little Paper Shop blog and they will announce a radom winner tomorrow! Have a great Sunday everyone!
