I am FINALLY getting a chance to play along in a Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!! So excited to share my very first entry!

   

I  used Latte Lucy from C.C. Designs for my first card...

   

      

I colored Lucy with Copics, and paired her with some soft pinks... I love pink and kraft together!

Slowly still making my way through coloring up the Masked Munchkins from Tiddly Inks.

    

Today's card features this cute little dino kiddo...

       

     

I kept this one pretty simple... used up a couple of scraps from my stash, and doodled a border with my Black Micron Pen. The sentiment is from the YNS SIlly Monsters Stamp Set.

It's my day to share some March New Release Inspiration on the YNS Blog.

Today, I have a card featuring the new Totally Retro Stamp Set.

  

      

When I was cutting the telephone with the coordinating die set, the paper must have warped or slipped, because it cut the cord on the phone in half!

UGH!!!

To slavage the already colored image, I trimmed off what was left of the cord, and added some Karen Foster Scrappers Floss in its place! I love how it worked out!!

    

   

The sentiment is from the Talk Bubbles and Arrows Die Set. I trimmed up one of the larger talk bubbles in the set to fit the word a little tighter.

    

    

Yellow - Y13, Y11, Y00, Y000

Grey - T2, T1, T0, C00

It's time for a new challenge at Your Next Stamp... this time we have a

Photo Inspiration Challenge!

   

   

My eyes were drawn to the pink bed spread and the black and white polka dotted throw at the end of the bed.

     

This gave me a chance to color up the new-to-me flamingo from the Fred and Ginger Stamp Set. This set has been on my wishlist forever!!

    

    

The flamingo patterned paper is from the Doodlebug Fun in the Sun 6x6 pad... perfect match! The background behind the flamingo was sponged with Spun Sugar Distress Ink, and the flamingo was cut out and popped up with foam adhesive.

A couple of Spellbound Gumdrops in the corner finished it off.

         

   

Flamingo - R85, R83, R81

Legs - Y38, Y35, Y32

It's the final day of the Spring Series at Your Next Stamp!

I am featuring the sweet Easter Love stamp set on another Mini Slimline Card!

    

   

I've been on a no-line coloring kick lately... it takes me longer than usual, but it's very relaxing! I used a combination of Copics and Prismacolor Pencils on this one.

     

   

The details in the decorated eggs were hard to see in the light ink, so I made them solid colored eggs!

I finished the image by highlighting some of the details with a brown pencil.
