TSG Sneak Peek - Zoopendous

Peacocks, and hippos and snakes, oh my! Judy Rozema was our lucky winner from this year’s Mother Of All Blog Hops and one of her prizes was the chance to work with TSG to design a stamp set in a theme of her choice. She said that she would like a fun zoo stamp set that incorporated some animals that are different than you might find in other stamp sets and we knew just who the perfect illustrator would be for this! Melyssa’s adorably whimsical zoo animals will have you going wild!

What a fun set!!! We're so glad you're joining us today for this TSG Sneak Peek.  I'm the first official stop on the hop and if there is a break in the hop, there will be a master list at the TSG blog.

TSG Sneak Peek - Get your Thong on

Hey there!!! Finally a card from me...  I know that's what you're thinking. LOL.  Life has been pretty busy this month and definitely chaotic with more downs than ups.  But that's not why you're here today... 

You're here for the sneak Peeks of There She Goes upcoming release. Wahoo!!! The sets are so cute and fun this month and this one is by far my fave with all of it's sassy sentiments.  I'm the first official stop on the hop today, so grab that cool drink and sit back and enjoy. 

For my card today, I decided to use this month's SFYTT ( I figured I should considering I've participated every month and this is my first card in the month of July) paired with the Happy Go Lucky MME DP.  I had fun with this card and added the sentiment panel because I just HAD to use the sentiment.  I guess it's appropriate for me right now... I need to just deal with it...  LOL. 

Melyssa will have you giggling at this mini set that features fabulous flip flops and sassy sentiments! These ‘thongs’ are perfect for coloring, paper piecing, creating backgrounds and so much more. This mini set will be the perfect addition to your summer stamp collection!

Get Your Thong On is a 2x6 set that includes a total of 11 stamps and will sell for $7.

I'm a slacker...

Not sure if you should call me a slacker.... or just plain old busy.... My life has been pretty chaotic lately with family visiting from England, a few small trips away, and working quite a bit...  I haven't gone near my craft desk in a couple of weeks but I promise you'll be seeing something new soon.  To be honest, it's been nice having a little bit of a break crafting wise just to re-charge my batteries in terms of my creativity. I was really starting to burn out so the break was definitely needed.  My posting may be kind of helter skelter throughout the summer as I'm working quite a bit and I'd like to be outside enjoying the weather (although it's rained a few days here now).  Thanks for hanging in!!!

Hugs!

RCC9 Happy 4th

Wow... I've had so much fun this last week or so spending time with family visiting from England. I' haven't gone near my craft desk in almost two weeks until today (unless you count the hours I spent on Thursday cleaning up my craft area) but I'm back with a new card for this week's Ribbon Carousel Challenge which is to celebrate the 4th of July.  It's kinda funny that the week where half the DT showing cards are Canadian, the theme is Happy Birthday America.  I couldn't find any Canada stamps for Canada Day (and who would I really give a Canada Day card to).

So I decided to simple with my card today, just using the sentiment "Happy" combined with some Red Thickers I had left over from using on Christmas cards.  I added some twine to the buttons and then behind the main panel I added some Gingham ribbon and Crocheted lace.  Easy peasy!!! 

We'd love for you to join us this week!!! Make sure that your creations need to have ribbon, twine etc somewhere on the card. 

Hugs!!

TSG Sneak Peek - "Make a Splash"

WOWZA... The sun is shining and I've been having a great week with family visiting from England. It's always fabulous spending your days seeing things you wouldn't normally go to.  Love it!!! Oh wait... you're here for our third and final day of TSG Sneak Peeks aren't you?  LOL... I'm the first official stop on the hop.  Wahoo!!!

One of the best things about the summer is being able to go for a refreshing swim. Whether you prefer a lake, ocean or pool- you will love this new stamp set illustrated by Torico! Make A Splash will have you saying "Mermaids, seahorse and fish ohmy". 

Isn't she amazing?  I absolutely love the images in this stamp set and it was hard to pick just one to use...  I was inspired by the Cosmo Cricket DP for this card and also use the Wave Dienamic from MFT. 
Make A Splash is a 4x8 set that includes a total of 21stamps and will sell for $18.

Hey there!!! Welcome back for Day two of TSG Sneak Peeks for this months' release.  I hope you enjoyed yesterday's eye candy!!!  I'm the first official stop on the hop but there will be a master list at the TSG blog.

This adorable car illustrated by Melyssa is great to make a fun, every day card for family and friends! The larger car featured in this mini set was sized so that it could also be used with Leah (who can be seen in the Freeze The Moment stamp set).

I kept my card relatively simple today because I've been out enjoying the beautiful weather and sight-seeing with family visiting from England. 

Vroom is a 3x4 set that includes a total of 6 stamps and will sell for $7.

These gorgeous tropical flowers were illustrated by Torico and will quickly become a favorite from your summer stamping collection! Use them to create beautiful custom designer paper, color in the line art images to use as a focal point for your project or pair them with a TSG sentiment stamp set for a card that can be given for any occasion.
