School Pinkettes - Heidi

It's the last day of School Pinkette previews today!! How have you been enjoying seeing the awesome projects from the DT? Have you guys been commenting on blogs along the way to be in with a chance of winning one of the digital stamps?! I sure hope so. :)

So last but not least we have the adorable School Pinkette Heidi

How awesome is she?! Love her little balancing act and her happy little smile. :) Ahhh these Pinkettes totally speak to me. They're a dream to colour up, and if you don't own any yet.. you best get your act together!

I've used some more papers from the Pink Paislee collection I found deep down in my collection (LOL!!) and added some stamping to my cardbase. I've used some delicious turquoise silk ribbon from The Ribbon Girl to cover up a little booboo I made. Heehee.

So here goes guys, be sure to stop by the Tickled Pink Stamps Blog to see what other awesomeness the DT have got for ya, then be sure to stop by the Tickled Pink Stamp Store tomorrow to pick these cuties up for yourself! Yippeee.

It's the new boy on the block - Jessie

Day Three of previews for the BRAND NEW Tickled Pink Stamps Pinkette release. How are you guys liking the new schoolies on the block so far?! I think there is something for everyone in this release! Next up is our boy!!

School Pinkette Jessie

Now first up, his name rocks my socks. I LOVE that name for a boy or a girl. Secondly, have you SEEN how swarve he's lookin'?! With his backpack and football at the ready?! Gaaahh!! What a cool guy. I've coloured him up using ProMarkers, fussy cut him out and adhered him to the card using dimensionals.

Have you guys got a certain sketch or layout that you ALWAYS go to when you're stumped for a starting point?! I have, and it's this one from Sketch Saturday.

I don't know what it is about it, it just always makes me wanna create!!

I've used some old papers from Pink Paislee and created a sentiment on word. I eventually got me a new colour cartridge, so there ya have it.

Hope you like this guy as much as me!! Take a look over at the TPS Blog to see what the other awesome Pinkette teamies have got for ya! Be sure to stop by tomorrow for the last preview before all of the images are released!

School Pinkettes - It's Kira!!

Hey guys, it's Day Two of School Pinkette previews over at Tickled Pink Stamps today. There are previews right through to the 4th, and then from the 5th you can pick these cuties up for yourself over at the Tickled Pink Stamps Store.

Let me introduce ya to School Pinkette Kira.

I can imagine her being the popular girl at school, with all of the looks and all of the grades. Lucky thing. I wish I had hair like hers too!! :) It's gorgeous.

I've coloured her using ProMarkers, naturally.. and stamped a 'Grow Everyday' sentiment from a Some Odd Girl set across her left (right) leg in Pretty in Pink ink from SU! I've used some papers from Fancy Pants and added some black seam binding and a cute pink hat pin to the bow. The circles have been cut from the patterned paper and I've added some pink liquid pearls to the inside.

DON'T FORGET - Leave a comment on each post for your chance to WIN this image (via digital download only).

Meet the new School Pinkettes - Chloe

Well blow me down. Better late than never, right?! Good job - 'cause I'm always friggin' late!!

So I guess by now you guys have all seen the first sneak of the brand new Pinkette Release? No, well get your ass over to Tickled Pink Stamps NOW and see what the awesome Guest Designer and even awesome-er (ha) Pinkette DT have got for ya today!!

School Pinkettes. We've got previews right through to the 4th then the whole release will be available over at the Tickled Pink Stamps Store from the 5th.

Today we are bringing you School Pinkette Chloe
This little girl is a real cutie. I love her short hair and her backpack! I guess she'd be the smartie at school, and stick in - like a good student! :)

I've coloured her up using ProMarkers and fussy cut her out. I decided to create a little clipboard, so I kept all of the embellishing flat and to a minimum. I've used a few slices of Pink Paislee patterned paper that I found in my stash. I cut up the little letter tiles and adhered them at a jaunty angle.

Be sure to stop back tomorrow and see what else we've got lined up for ya!!

Pastels

Evening.. almost morning. Early hours of. What's new?! Sorry I haven't been around much - I have missed a lot!! I know. Good news is I haven't fallen off the face of the earth. Bad news is my laptop seems to be on it's last legs. The battery is totally pooped and the hole where my charger fits is totally loose - so my charger keeps falling out and cutting off the laptop - then when I go to turn it on again it takes like.. half an hour. I wish I was exaggerating. So obviously I've had trouble keeping up to date with everything and getting my cards for DTs in on time and stuff. Luckily all my boss ladies are nice girls! :)

Anyway, that isn't why you're here. You wanna see some cards right?! Well you might just be in luck. I've got two to share with ya today. I feel like I haven't blogged in freakin' ages. Probably because.. I haven't.

So first up is my card for the new challenge over at Pollycraft Monday.

Our lovely Joey wants to see..

SPRING HAS SPRUNG 

and here is my card using one of the gorgeous new Celeste Amberglow. :)

When you get a chance, head over to the challenge blog and take a look at what my awesome teamies have come up with to inspire ya! ;) You won't be disappointed.

*************************************************************

Next up (before I get a chance to waffle anymore.. I gotta get my ass to b-e-d).. 

I've got a little something I made.. just for me.. because I fancied it. It's nice to be able to do stuff like that now and again, I guess I should get off my laptop a little more often. It's amazing how much free time you have when you're not stuck on FB all day long.

I used, arguably, one of my fave ever digis.

It's one of the first ever Pinkettes from Tickled Pink Stamps.

Tom Boyz - Coraline.

I've coloured her up to play along with the new challenge over at Passion for ProMarkers this week. The amazing Vix wants to see Pastels. I used to really struggle colouring paler colours, but since the release of the new FlexMarkers from Letraset, it's a lot easier to achieve paler shades. :) Love how her jeans turned out.

That's it from me. Gonna test my luck and see if I can get on this piece of junk tomorrow morning to schedule a few more posts for through the week.

It's only LOLITA!!

Good afternoon. Hope you're well? Thanks for stopping by today - unfortunately this is the last post for challenges over at Tickled Pink Stamps. Sadly, they just haven't been going the way everyone had planned, so earlier this month, Kellie decided to call is quits. A sad day, I'm sure you'll agree. That doesn't mean it's the last you'll see of Tickled Pink Stamps around blog land though - ohh no!! :)

So for the last ever challenge we want to see you break out those..

LOLITAS

You heard right. :)

I decided to use Lil' Lolita - Lilith. She seemed kinda fitting for this post.

A really different card from me this time. Decided to go all CAS on ya! ;) Betcha didn't see that one coming. I used a lovely minature chevron stripe type deal from Crate Paper as the back drop with a slice of Basic Black cardstock from SU! down the centre. I coloured Lilith using Promarkers and kept all of the coloured quite muted, apart from the pops of red. 

I used some Cosmo Cricket alpha stickers to create a sentiment and attached the little tag to the card using some red bakers twine from The Ribbon Girl. That was about it. Oh, and the white doodling around the outside of the black cardstock as opposed to my usual brown.

Can I ask you to head over to the challenge blog now and see what the other amazing ladies have grouped together to inspire ya this week. We want you guys to help us make this the best challenge yet!!

Colour Combo at Tickled Pink Stamps

Afternoon. :) How's your week spanning out so far?! It's almost the weeeekeeeend!! Can't wait. Me and the boyfriend are planning on going to the pictures to see The Woman in Black. We {heart} to scare ourselves silly. Heehe..

Anywho. You're here for the new TPS challenge. 

We've got a COLOUR CHALLENGE for you all this week.

Blue, Orange, Beige and Yellow

Here's what I came up with using Lil' Fashionette 60's Ivy big head.

I've coloured her using Copics for her skin and ProMarkers for the rest of her. I tried a different technique on her hair.. I tried to make it all smooth with no hair strands and stuff. I kinda like it on this image, but I'm not too sure how it would work with others. I can only try, right?

I used a few scraps of paper from My Minds Eye Breeze collection and a slice of polka dot paper from SU! That gorgeous orange ric rac is from The Ribbon Girl. You know something? When I received this as part of the rainbow kit I ordered - I was like?! Really?! When will I ever use that?! Truth is, I only have a tiny piece left. It adds so much to projects. :) Might stock up on the orange as well as a few other colours, heehee.

I typed a sentiment in Word and die cut it using a fancy tags die from Spellbinders. A few clusters of WOC flowers and TRG buttons threaded with some Doodlebug twine. I then added some cream? yellow? felt hearts for some added texture, and that was about it!! 

Thanks for stopping by today, be sure to check out the TPS challenge blog and see what the rest of the awesome teamies have got to inspire ya.
