Let's Hear It For The Girls!

Hi All!

Okay, we heard it for the boys, now it's time to hear it for the girls! That's right it's time for the Bombshell Stamps Hump Day Blog Hop! This theme is a little more specific then last month's though. I want you to create a card or project that could be sent to someone during October, which is (here in the States), Breast Cancer Awareness Month. So let's all Think Pink!

You can go with a pink card, Girl Power, use the infamous pink ribbon symbol, etc. But we want to worship those ladies that are fighting (or have fought) for their lives.

Now, before we continue, yes, I know it's not pink, (some days I guess I just can't follow rules) however, I'm going more with the "Girl Power" theme in saying "You're Fabulous!" no matter what you're a star. At any rate, I hope you dig it.


I used my favorite Bombshell Angel and dressed her up to look fabulous. (I'm having a Fernando's Hideway flashback LOL). I colored her with Copics, embossed the "Strung beads" into the background, but I thought they could look like lights of sorts, so I used sparkly brad heads on it as well.

As always, we'd love for you to join us! We have 16 fab stops this time. Don't forget to leave some love to get entered to win fabulous prizes!

Upcoming Classes

Hi All!

Holy cow it's getting close to October already! Geez, where has the time gone? I figure I best post a reminder about my upcoming classes at Scrap 'N Friends.

First up we have Technique Tags. This month is all about one of my favorite thing - embossing. Heat embossing to be exact. I love watching that stuff melt - I know, I'm weird.

 This class is Monday, October 1st at 6:00 or Tuesday, October 2nd at 12:30. If you have a craft sheet please bring it, but it's not required to have one. It's $3 to create the 2 fabulous tags.

Next up is Copic Class. Pumpkin Stack will be the card we're creating, this one is a bit labor intensive, so we're just doing one this time. Don't have a heart attack over the colors used either, quite a few have been used before and we can always make adjustments. That said, the BV000, BV02, BV04 and BV08 are new - we've not used any of them before.

Colors Used: BV000, BV02, BV04, BV08, Y000*, E13*, E15*, E17*, Y32, Y35, Y38, YR12*, YR16*, YR18*, YG41, YG45
Class will by Tuesday, October 9 @ 12:30 or 6:00. 1 Card, $4. Give us a buzz at Scrap 'N Friends to sign up for these or any other classes at 833-2600. Hope to see you there!

Until Next Time,
Jodi :-)

Splat!

Hi All!

There's a fun new challenge my Ms. September over at Bombshell Stamps - Paint Splatters! Oh yea... get funky with it this month and splash some paint around! Use it as a mist, flick it off your brush or even roll around in some paint and dance all over your project! I don't really care how you do it... just HAVE FUN!!! What a blast!

Here's my creation - dad if you see this skip it (LOL - it's his birthday card)

I love the car, the minute I saw this stamp set (Vintage Raceway) I had to have it because the car is very similar to one my dad had way back when. (the engine wasn't showing like that though) I tried to come close to the color it was as well using my Copics. The splatters in the background were created using Distress Stains. I squeezed the bottles a bit and kinda slammed them on the paper. (totally fun!) The smaller splatters were flicked on using the stains and a water brush. There's also some embossed foil with distressing in there too. I can't wait to give it to him!

You too can have some fun with this technique and link your project on the Bombshells blog for a chance to win a great prize! Hope to see you there!

Until next time,
Jodi :-)
