The Greeting Farm~ANYA NERDS OUT!

Happy Thursday everyone! I'm back today to showcase the last stamp released in November by The Greeting Farm. And, I must say, she is one of my favorites! I have always been and will always be a NERD and I'm proud of it, haha! She just reminds me of myself. :) This awesome stamp set is called ANYA NERDS OUT! I stamped her on Neenah Cardstock and colored her with Copics.

Copics:
Skin: E0000, E000, E00, E01, E11, E13
Hair: E42, E47, E49
Red: R24, R27, R29, R59
Blue: B91, B93, B95, B99
Black: C5, C7, Black
Pencil: E41, E42, YR21, YR23, YR24, C3, C5, R20

Here's my project for today.....a Pencil Box Holder!! I found this awesome template by Ilina Creations called First Day Ensemble. It is a paid file, but I knew with Isaiah still in school I would get a lot of use out of this template. I used the insert to hold pencils. But I think it would be cute as a candy holder without the insert.


Now head over to The Greeting Farm Store to snatch up your November Release Stamps!

Hugs,
Rosie

7 Kids College Fund Challenge #139: ANYTHING GOES!

Happy Wednesday everyone! Today starts a new challenge on the 7 Kids College Fund Challenge Blog! The theme for the next 2 weeks is: ANYTHING GOES!! 

Just remember to qualify for the Top 3 and Gift Certificate drawing, you must use a stamp carried in the 7 Kids College Fund Store. This challenge will end on DECEMBER 1st, 12:00pm MST.  

Today I branched out and decided to do something different.....surprising, I know, haha! I made a shaker card....say what?!! Yup!! I haven't made one of these in a very long time, but I love how it turned out. Another shocker.....there's no coloring involved! :) 


The sentiment is from Mama Elephants Jingle Greetings Clear Stamp Set. See that gorgeous die around the sentiment? It's the new Memory Box Stitched Snowflake Circle Frame Die....LOVE IT!!! I seriously love how this card turned out!


For extra dimension I used the Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle die to cut out the center of my snowflake paper from Penny Black and raised that panel on foam. The white silk ribbon was in my stash.

Supplies from the 7 Kids College Fund Store:
