Class is in session with Teacher Mae at Some Odd Girl Stamps!

Hi, everybody! It’s time for a new clear stamp release at Some Odd Girl Stamps, and we’re getting a head start on the new school year with “Teacher Mae“, the first of two new sets available today in the Some Odd Girl Stamps Store!
After I colored the main image, I chose one of the sentiments from the set and made a chalkboard, because you can’t have class without one! (And of course, Mae gets a gold star because she’s so wonderful!)
I’m trying to work on different clothing patterns, so I attempted a tweed skirt. I think I’ll use smaller lined pens next time to get a finer pattern.
I also couldn’t resist making a sticky note holder with the ruler stamp in the set. (There’s a little sneak peek at tomorrow’s set…I love that I could put a happy face on the ruler!)

You can find more inspiration with “Teacher Mae” at the Some Odd Girl blog, and both of the new clear sets are available NOW in the Some Odd Girl Store!
Even though we’re in the middle of July, there’s still time to link up your Some Odd Girl projects with this month’s Linky Party on 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! I’ll be back tomorrow with more new release projects! Hope your week is off to a wonderful start!
Hugs,

Digi Release Tuesday at Some Odd Girl Stamps!

Happy Tuesday, everybody! I’m back with a couple of cards featuring this week’s new digital stamp release at Some Odd Girl Stamps! 
This week’s release is near and dear to my heart because it’s an idea that I submitted to Kristy a few months ago! My husband is into history, particularly the Crusades and Renaissance periods. He is part of a few re-enactment groups that get together across the country during the year, and even has his own suit of armor!
I’m always on the lookout for knight-related stamps that I can use to make cards for him, so when Kristy asked for stamp ideas in the Some Odd Girl Facebook group, my first instinct was to suggest a knight in shining armor, and I was thrilled when I saw that he was being made into a digi stamp!
Here’s my first card, which features another one of my pocket scrapbooking cards that I made with Some Odd Girl digis! It’s more of a close-up of “Knight Kody“, and I also used one of the new digital “Knight Sentiments” on the card.
I had a bit of fun with this next card, because it’s the one I made for Scott for his birthday. You also get a better view of the full “Knight Kody” image! He LOVED it, and keeps it on his bedside table. I managed to borrow it while he was at work to take a picture for my blog post.

I resized the “Sweater Pup” digi stamp and colored it to match our dog, who also makes an appearance on each birthday card that I make for Scott. I drew the paw print on the sweater to make it look like he’s wearing a tunic. The sentiment is from the “Big Wishes Mae” clear stamp set.

Happy Tuesday, everybody! It’s time for a new digital stamp release at Some Odd Girl Stamps, and this week, we’re glad to welcome “Best Friends Tobie and Tia“!
Because the main image has both a boy and a girl, I picked some paper that was more neutral in pattern but still had some girly elements to it. These are from Basic Grey’s 6×6 “Mon Ami” paper pad designed by Kelly Purkey.
You’ll find “Best Friends Tobie and Tia” NOW in the Some Odd Girl Stamps Store! For more digi stamp release day inspiration, stop by the Some Odd Girl blog!

My Some Odd Girl Stamps Weekly Recap!

 Hi everybody! If you’re going to be catching up on this week’s blog posts over the weekend, make sure you check out my tutorial on the Some Odd Girl blog on making reusable stencils with Some Odd Girl cut files!

Here’s a card that I made with the stencil from the tutorial, featuring Some Odd Girl Stamps’ super sweet “Cookies N Milk” clear stamp set:

I also made some pocket scrapbooking cards with the new “Beautiful Amazing Fabulous” sentiment cut file pack by altering the sentiments and pairing them with Some Odd Girl digis to make the pocket cards, which also work great on cards, too! You can find out how I altered the sentiments at this post on my blog.

And finally, don’t forget to hop along with Some Odd Girl Stamps and Chic Tags to check out some very chic and totally odd projects from both design teams! If you love fun, inspiration and PRIZES (and I know that you do), make sure you hop along! The hop kicks off at the Some Odd Girl blog! 
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you have a wonderful weekend filled with lots of crafting time!

Happy Tuesday, everybody! I’m sharing a card and some pocket scrapbooking cards that I made with the new “Beautiful Amazing Fabulous” sentiment cutfile pack at Some Odd Girl Stamps!
Instead of using the files with my die cut machine, I changed them from solid to outline in Photoshop Elements, and paired them with some Some Odd Girl digital stamps! I used one of the pocket cards (each one measures 3″ x 4″) to make this card:
By changing the graphic from a solid to an outline, I could color the sentiment to match the digi.

Here’s a handy reference graphic to show how it’s done! You can also click on the photo for a larger view:

Here’s a look at the greeting card with the pocket scrapbooking cards that I made with the sentiment pack and “Singer Kaylee“, Hula Hoop Mae” and “Formal Mae“! If you’re not into pocket scrapbooking (I haven’t done it, but I want to), you can see how easy it is to use a pocket card to make a greeting card!

And there you have it! The newest “Beautiful Amazing Fabulous” sentiment cutfile pack from Some Odd Girl stamps and some inspiration to get your creative mojo flowing!

Did you know that Some Odd Girl Stamps is partnering with Chic Tags for a very chic and of course, totally ODD blog hop? It all kicks off at the Some Odd Girl blog on Wednesday, June 25 with projects galore from members of the Chic Tags and Some Odd Girl design teams! If you love fun, inspiration and prizes, (and I know that you do!) make sure you mark your calendar and hop along!

Thanks so much for stopping by today, and make sure to check out the Some Odd Girl Stamps blog for more digi release day inspiration!

Hi, everybody! I hope you had a wonderful weekend! My husband’s birthday was on Sunday, so we went to brunch, then grilled hamburgers and hot dogs, and later had German chocolate cake and ice cream! We also went ice skating for a little bit, which was fun, even though we didn’t stay long!
Since it’s Tuesday, that means it’s time to share my projects with the newest digi at Some Odd Girl Stamps! Today’s card features “Teacup Alice“, paired with a sentiment from the “Renew” clear stamp set. You can find both the digi and the clear stamp set in the Some Odd Girl shop!
I picked some fun teacup paper from American Crafts’ “Soho Garden” 6×6 pad, and colored Mae up to match the paper! 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! Make sure you get in before this month’s party is over!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you can take some time just for yourself this week or over the coming weekend!
Hugs,
