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,

I’m up on the Whimsy and Stars Studio blog today!

Hi, everybody! It’s my turn to post on the Whimsy and Stars Studio blog today, and I’m sharing a sneak peek of my card here, which features “Ballerina Teddy“:
I’d love it if you stopped by the Whimsy and Stars Studio blog to see the full reveal of my card, and of course, to say HI!

New Digi Tuesday ROCKS at Some Odd Girl Stamps!

Hi, everybody! I hope you had a wonderful weekend, and if you’re in the U.S., I hope you had a safe Memorial Day holiday! I’m always happy for long weekends, but I admit that I sometimes forget the day of the week…that extra day often throws me off!
Never fear, I didn’t forget that it’s Tuesday, and that it’s time to share my projects with the newest digis at Some Odd Girl Stamps! First up is “Singer Kaylee“, paired with the “Star Card Base” cut file. You can find both the digi and the cut file in the Some Odd Girl shop!
My second project for today might be a little bit out of season, but it’s part of the “Sweet Words Sentiment Pack“, which includes three digital sentiments: “Be Mine”, “Sweet” and “Hey There Gorgeous.”
I printed the sentiment on white paper, centered it in a heart-shaped stencil, sponged ink over the shape, then cut it out and attached it to a chipboard heart shape. The pink bamboo twine on my card can also be found in the Some Odd Girl Store! 

And there you have it! The newest digi stamps and files in the Some Odd Girl Store!

It’s new digi Tuesday at Some Odd Girl!

Hi, everybody! Hope you had a wonderful weekend and that your week’s off to a great start! Since it’s Tuesday, I have a card to share that features the brand-spanking-new digi stamp at Some Odd Girl Stamps! This little cutie’s called “Kitty Hopper“!
Now, I’m not normally a cat person, but this little one made me smile! I also worked on the kitty’s fur by adding stripes. I would have liked to make the fur a little less smooth, but with practice, I’ll get there!
The layout on this card is fairly simple, with a large amount of white space, so your eye is drawn to the lower part of the card and to the main image. I also wanted to feature the images without fussy cutting them! The sentiment is part of the “Flirty Mae” clear stamp set. I masked the speech bubble tail to make it a circle accent.
And there you have it! You can see more creative options with this new digi and with all of the Some Odd Girl Stamps in SOG’s Facebook group!

You can also find more inspiration on the Some Odd Girl blog, where you’ll also find our May 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!
