Kiss me!

Pin It

It’s March and St. Patrick’s Day is right around the corner.  If you have been reading my blog for a while, you probably noticed that I LOVE Irish music and culture so I really enjoy this time of year.   I  instantly fell in love with this sweet little duck, Lucky Duck, as soon as I saw him.   He shows that on St. Patrick’s Day, we all can be a little Irish.

Just in case you haven’t seen the new releases for March on the Meljen’s Designs blog, I’ll share a peek with you.   Melissa released 7 new digital stamps and 6 pre-colored digis.   (If you haven’t used pre-colored digis, you might want to check out the awesome blog post by fellow DT member Nicole HERE.)

 

 

 

There are other new events over at the Meljen’s Designs blog beginning this month.  Now the DT is going to take turns posting on the blog.  You can expect to see posts about their favorite Meljen’s images, their creative process, photos of their crafting spaces and even tutorials.   (Did you see my tutorial on faux brads yesterday?)

 

Oh, before I go, the new challenge this week is a sketch challenge.   Check out the sketch and the DT’s creations on the Meljen’s Designs blog.  Don’t forget to link up your creation using the sketch for your chance to win some Meljen’s Designs digis.

Sentimental Sundays Challenge #25

The new Sentimental Sundays challenge is black, white & another color of your choice. Since my daughter was invited to a birthday party for a friend that loves cats, I decided to make a kitty card and matching gift bag.













Sorry the 2nd picture looks a little strange. The gift bag did not fit in my light box and I was in a hurry to get the photo taken so we could leave for the party.

The kitty image is from Pink Cat Studios and is already colored black so you only need to color the bird and the flower. I used digital paper purchased from Sweet Shoppe Designs. I love the black and white design. For other projects I have printed it on colored cardstock for instant DP that perfectly matches my CS. The gift bag is a cheap bag ($0.49 from Target). I like to keep several of these plain bags around to alter or to have on hand so I don' t need to run to Walgreens at the last minute for a bag. (Not that I procrastinate or anything...)

I hope you will join the Sentimental Sundays "Black, White & Another color" challenge this week. You are free to create any kind of project and use any supplies as long as it is a new project and it displays a sentiment.

Stop by the Sentimental Sundays blog to download the free sentiment set from Ann Vento of Raindrop Echo Designs.

While you are out surfing the web today, you might want to stop by Whimsy Stamps to check out the new digi's available from Raindrop Echo Designs. Ann has created some really great new autumn & Halloween sentiments and some new digis designed to work with Spellbinders Nestabilities. They are really cool.

Have a great day! Thank you for looking!
