Some fresh inspiration with Some Odd Girl’s Fruit Salad stamps!

1 Comment
Happy Tuesday! I’m back with a project featuring the second new clear stamp set at Some Odd Girl Stamps, “Fruit Salad“! 

I made these little note pad holders with the set! Each holder fits a regular 3″ x 3″ sticky note pad inside, and would be part of a great end-of-the school year gift for a teacher or any time for a friend!


And because it’s Tuesday, that also means we have new digis in the Some Odd Girl store! This card features “Graduation Mae“! I cut her cap off and made it look like she threw it in the air to celebrate! For those of you who are looking for a graduating guy, you’ll also find “Graduation Kody” in the SOG store!


And there you have it! For more creative options with this new digi (and with all of the Some Odd Girl Stamps) join us on SOG’s Facebook group!

You can also find more inspiration on the Some Odd Girl blog, where you’ll also find our June Linky Party! To join in the fun, just link up your latest creations with Some Odd Girl digi or clear stamps with the Linky tool on the blog! You just might win a prize and get a shout out on the blog! 

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Hope your week is going well so far!

Hugs,

A sweet color challenge at Sweet Stamp Shop!

Happy Tuesday, everybody!  I’ll have some projects up shortly with the first June release at Sweet Stamp Shop, but today, I’m helping out my fellow DT member Danni, with a card that I made for her new color challenge at the Sweet Stamp Shop blog!
I chose the “Cookie Sprinkles” set for today’s card:
I’m really working to improve my photo taking skills, and I have to tell you, I probably took 10 shots of this card in front of different backgrounds before I settled on the one to use on my blog! The weather wasn’t cooperating, so I had to shoot this picture inside on my craft room table. I added the matching sequins as a nod to the color combo and to the sprinkles theme of the card!
Here’s the color combo for the challenge:
and the stamp set that I used, “Cookie Sprinkles“:
You can find all of the details for this challenge at the Sweet Stamp Shop blog! And, once the challenge has 25 entries or more linked up to the Sweet Stamp Shop Flickr group, there’s a prize!

Some Odd Girl has Cookies ‘N Milk to share with YOU!

Hi, everybody! It’s time for a new clear stamp release at Some Odd Girl Stamps, and this month’s stamps are right up my alley! I love cute food with faces, and not only are there’s adorable “Cookies ‘N Milk” to share with you today, but you’ll go BANANAS for tomorrow’s set (and apples and pears)!
I’ve been working on my photography skills lately, and have been taking more photos outside in natural light. This one was taken on my front porch. I usually take 4-5 shots for each card and pick the best of the group for my blog post, which for me is the one that I’ll need to edit the least in Photoshop Elements.
Here are best pals Milk and Cookie! I stamped them holding hands, but you don’t have to. Each image can be stamped by itself! 
An experiment on my part was to color a wood veneer heart with a Copic marker and attach some foil paper to the underside of the heart. I sealed it with some Glossy Accents. It took a long time to dry, but I think it came out OK!
You can find more delicious inspiration with this set at the Some Odd Girl blog, and both of the new clear sets are available NOW in the Some Odd Girl Store!
Now that we’ve flipped the calendar to June, there’s a new Linky Party at the Some Odd Girl blog! All you have to do is link up your latest Some Odd Girl projects for a chance at being featured, or winning some fabulous prizes! (You’ll find the linky tool on the right side of the SOG blog!)
Thank you SO MUCH for stopping by today! This will be a busy week for me on the blog, so I’ll have lots of fun projects to share with you! Hope your week is off to a wonderful start!
Hugs,
