Stamping Spot Studio

Jen of Little C’s Stamps and Things sent me this really cute Whipper Snapper paper, however, it’s been a while since I took bath pictures of my kids (they are 10 and 14), so I decided to use the back of the paper instead:

While flipping through old photos, the bright yellow matched the rain poncho color, so I pulled it out. And – Ta DAAAA!

Papers: Whipper Snapper, Close To My Heart
Inks: Desert Sand by Close To My Heart
Other: Raffia, Just Blooms and copper brad and Big Brad by Close To My Heart

And Mittens says,

“Put your nose just a little closer, closer…” <* swipe! *>

I have just been accepted into Little C’s Design Team!! Woooot! My first designing gig!

Little C’s owner Jen asked us to use this sketch from Juliee Tilman’s Poetic Artistry blog, and use a Whipper Snapper stamp (that you can purchase at Little C’s, btw). Since I’m still waiting for my design package of goodies from Jen, I used papers and embellishments already in my stash:

Stamps: Tuxedo Kitten, Fuzzy Mouse by Whipper Snapper, Sentiment by Hero Arts
Others: Silhouette level 2 paper pack by Close To My Heart, ribbon, Just Blooms paper flower, big brad from Close To My Heart, die cuts by Sizzix

And my family and I have recently gone to the Hilton Waikoloa on the Big Island of Hawaii.

See me? The feet, lol.

Happy Mother’s Day! I hope all you moms out there are being treated to something special. I think my kids forgot…they haven’t said anything yet. I know my daughter has something hidden for me (she told me so) but right now she’s playing a computer game (it’s a math/logic game) and is quite engrossed. That’s just fine with me! It gave me some time to crank out these, using things I won from Jen’s blog.

Stamps: Shelly Sheepdog (Whipper Snapper Designs), What’s New? (Hero Arts)

Ah, simple, cute, and quick. I like it!! Thanks Jen! Now maybe I can start on that baby swap…
