No Fooling, New release time!

Hello Again Crafty Friends!

Happy April 1st! 

I hope you are all safe and well during these crazy time!

I am staying safe and crafty here in Ohio. 

Ok, Are you guys as excited as I am about new releases?

This month has so many awesome samples! You will definitely want to stop by the Stampotique Originals facebook page! The team has really been blowing me away with these samples. 

Check out all the new stamps HERE.

Let's start with two super sweet stamps from Kassa. 

(I love how this card and envelope came out...I think these 2 are heading to my niece).

Wonderland Girl

Soulful Heart

Next I will share my samples with Daniel's 3 awesome new releases!!! 

Yes, 3!

Ok, let's start with an art journal page using the new Gristen.

I love how this came out... She is so fun!
(I added the wings to her)

Now, time for a fun and simple birthday card using the new cake "Oncewholenomore".

I love the name of this one. lol

Ok, now my absolute favorite of this release ... Falstaff ... he is SO CUTE!
(These are all mail art envelopes of course)

Ok, What did you all think??? 

Love right!?!

Ok, well, back to crafty play and cleaning for me. 

Stay safe and crafty!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

I can't believe it's 2020 already!

(Y2K was only yesterday wasn't it?!)

Ok, since today is January 1st it's time to share a little inspiration with the 1st release of new stamps from Stampotique Originals for 2020!

See all new stamps HERE

Let's start of with an art journal spread... I love how Arthur looks to be sneaking out the back door... HAHA

(Veggie Boo may be in over her heels here, meanwhile I think someone else may be crushing on her... what do you think?)



sneaky, sneaky...

Don't look so sad Spongul, she'll figure it out...

Next, I want to share a special card using my new robot design!!! 

(I named him "Free Hugs")

Doesn't he look so perfect with Arwen's gears?

Now for some holiday celebrations with Asian lanterns!

(You know that's needed for every goon New Years party, Right?!)

Arthur can't wait on his guest to arrive!!

Last, but not least, I have been itching to try my hand at a Kassa style ATC, and this pretty new "Agatha Kitty" looked like she would be perfect! 

(I have actually colored her 4 different ways I loved her so much... shhh.. I'll have to share the others later... hehe!)

Anyhow, I can't completely get the viberant colors and textures like Kassa, but I had a ton of fun playing! (and that's what it's really all about!)

I may try a Milo style ATC next... 

(although not sure I can pull that one off even close...)

So... do you have a favorite of the new release stamps?
I don't know if I can decide, at first with was Agatha Kitty, but Arthur grew on me with his mischief...
now that I've colored them all and played with them I love them all too much to pick!

Did you make a new years resolution?

This year I'm not doing a resolution, but I will be daydreaming of getting our home paid off so that we can buy property in North Carolina some day.

Who doesn't love to day dream?

(Dreaming of building a home with a craft studio I can teach from keeps me extra energized and looking forward to 2020)

Do you have a daydream for this year?
