Tipsy McStagger

You may have noticed that Fridays and Sundays are my days to post a project made with one of the totally unique digital images from Sunshines Stamps. Lucky for me I got this card made and posted with a few minutes to spare as Sunday draws to a close. Today was a crazy day which involved family photos, birthday party and lots of guests, but I pulled it off, phew. So without further ado, it's my pleasure to introduce you Sunshine fans to Tipsy McStagger! Isn't he cute! I think he's a pretty versatile image. Just think any kind of celebration type card, or scrapbook layout. In this example Tipsy is either sober or cut off, because I went with Rootbeer, lol. You could even use Tipsy for a summery theme and he could be filled with a coke float.

I also used the Sketch for the Delightful Sketches #5. I coloured with Copics and embossed the bashful blue with a Cuttlebug Folder. I also added ribbon that I bought from Pink Hedgehog Paper Crafts.

Sweet Tooth!

I made this card for a swap I'm in where we were supposed to find something that went with the first letter of our name that reflected something about us. I struggled with this as there weren't many "J" words that described me. But then I got this yummy stamp set from The Angel Company and new it would work! I have a MAJOR sweet tooth, so here's my "Junk food Jenny" card. I also used the colours for the Tuesday Morning Sketches colour challenge, which were, Elegant Eggplant, Certainly Celery and Kraft.

I paineted the background with December Sky Shimmerz and added some aqua Oregon Raindrops. I also used a Cuttlebug embossed background for red cardstock and I used Stampin Up! Pacific Blue as my main colour.
