TSG Sneak Peek - Holiday Cheer

We are so excited at There She Goes to finally be bringing you our fun, fantastic holiday release. Sneak peeks will continue over the next few days and I'm delighted to say we'll be getting all snowed in.  LOL!!!

 

 

 

Torico is at it again, bringing us another SUPER cute Holiday set to love and adore, and this one has a twist…but you will have to wait until tomorrow to see WHAT the twist is!! Just take it from me, this set is so versatile, you will be turning to it again and again for all your holiday needs! With four ADORABLE scenes, and four fabulous sentiments, you are sure to fall in love.

 

I was giggling with joy when I saw the images from this set. They are so stinking cute!!! I heart them!!! Love!!!  For my card, I used the current sketch challenge here at TSG. My color inspiration for my card came from the Echo Park DP that I am in love with.  The image was colored with Tombow Markers and the snowflake is from an MFT die that I ran through my Xyron and added Shaved Ice from Stampendous. 

Holiday Cheer is a 4x6 set that includes a total of 8 stamps and will sell for $15.00.

Would you like to win the new Holiday Cheer stamp set? Here is what you need to do-visit the Trendsetter’s blogs that are participating in each of the blog hop challenges below and comment on their creations as you go. One of the Trendsetter’s blogs (from each hop day) will be randomly chosen as the ‘it’ blog and a winner will be picked using a random number generator from the comments left on that Trendsetter’s Blog Hop Challenge post.

Hot Chocolate, Anyone?

 

Isn't Ramona too cute???  I've made this card for this week's Sketch Challenge over at Stamping Bella.  It's a fantastic sketch, I tell ya!!! Although, I rotated it so that I could use this image. You know me, I'm always flipping a sketch if I can.  For my card, I've used the new image called "Ramona shares her hot chocolate" that I got in the  mail earlier this week.  Emily has started mounting the rubber stamps in a cool blue color and I am loving how the images stamp now. LOVE IT!!!  I've used a mixture of Echo Park and Pebbles DP for my card.  Have I ever mentioned how much I love mixing DP's from various companies?  I think I need to do it more often... so much DP, so little time. 

Thanks for popping by today!!!

 

ISSC42 Snowflakes...

Hi there!!! Welcome to another busy week in the life of Angela Thomas. LOL!!!  I've been creating so much this week but unfortunately I can't share any of it with you yet.  Sorry!! 

 

I'm glad I can share this card though.  I've made this card for this week's iSpy sketch as well as for There She Goes Again week at TSG. 

 

This week's sketch features Anya Schrier and is inspired by this card.

 

 

I went with a CAS look for my card. 

 

When I bought this MME paper pad called "Cowboy" I bought it for its' masculine colors but when I was scouring through my million and one paper pads I realized how nice it would be for Christmas cards.  For my card, I've used the TSG set called "Stick Together" and the set called "Flourishes". 

 

Thanks for dropping by today!!!

 

I thought I'd let you know that TSG is having a sale right now :-)

 

 

 

Congrats on the new Job

Hi there everyone!!! It's me again with a fun card to share with you. I'm the current guest Designer over at Eclectic Paperie and this is up on their blog today.  I don't often make masculine cards but as soon as I saw the Authentique Thankful paper pad, I knew I had to create something fun with it.

The colors in this pad are perfect for any masculine card. It has definitely inspired me :-). What better to pair with this fantastic DP than the Sweet Stamp Shop set called "It's a Man's World" which I noticed is currently on sale at the store. Who doesn't love a bargain? LOL!!! The briefcase was stamped twice and then popped up using Scotch Foam Mounting tape. The sentiment was stamped using the Memento Rich Cocoa Ink. The layout for my card is from the current Sweet Sunday Sketch challenge.

Thanks for popping by!!! I'll be back next Wednesday with another fun project for you.

TSG181 Snowy Days

This week at There She Goes, our challenge is brought to us by our Trendsetters! We are challenging YOU to make a card or project using a winter theme. Snow, snowmen, just make it wintery!!

For my card today, I decided to use one of my fave TSG sets called "Snowy Days".  It's one that I love pulling out at this time of year with all of its' cute images.  Love them!!  For my layout, I've used the current SFYTT with the only difference being that I placed the entire circle above rather than being partially cut off.   

To be eligible for the giveaway, create a card or project using this week’s challenge(winter) and then come back to the TSG Blog to add your name and a link to your project in the InLinkz that is located at the bottom of this challenge post. This challenge is open until the winner has been announced on the following Monday (November 19th). The winner will get a $5 gift certificate to use in the TSG Web store!

By participating in this challenge, you may also find yourself in the Trendsetting Spotlight that shines on the TSG Blog every Thursday. We will be on the lookout to find challenge cards that stand out and show Trendsetting qualities. TSG stamps are not required to participate in the challenges but are appreciated :)

You do not need to have a blog to be able to participate in the TSG Challenges! You can simply add the URL link from your project after it has been uploaded to your online craft gallery. If you upload your card to an online craft gallery, please use the keyword TSG181 so we can check out your beautiful work!

Fun news with Eclectic Paperie

Eeks!!!   I'm so excited to be the guest designer at Eclectic Paperie for the month of November. Let's just say I did a little happy dance when I got an email from Kim asking me to be the guest designer. And if you've ever seen me dance, it's not pretty. LOL!!!

I was so inspired by the box of goodies that Kim sent me that I didn't know where to start so I decided to go "pretty" with my card for today.

This card is truly my style. I love clean but with a lot of layers.

For my card, I started out with the Basic Grey Plumeria paper pad as my inspiration as well as a recent Viva la Verve sketch. The purple layer of DP was sponged along the edge with Memento Lulu Lavendar ink and the blue fishtail banners were sponged with Memento Bahama Blue ink. The sentiment on my card comes from the Market Street Stamps set called "Growth". I love this stamp set and know I'll be using it again soon. Isn't that flower fantastic too? Eeks!!! So pretty :-) I love pretty, LOL. The flower is called "Vintage Gauze blossom - Cream". I think I'll try to dye one with some re-inkers soon as I think it will be a really pretty look.

Thanks for popping by today!!! I'll be back each Wednesday throughout the month with some eye candy for you.

Have a great day!!!
