KBD - Halloween Blog Hop!!

Hey everyone!!

Sorry about the posting, unposting, posting and unposting.  I think I got the time right now! hahaha! Enjoy!!

Today there is a special DT blog hop hosted by the Kitties & Bees from Kitty Bee Designs.  You should have popped over from Niki's blog but if you didn't no worries, you can find the list at the Kitty Bee Designs blog by clicking HERE.  I'll also make sure to add the list to the bottom of my post.  Our super talented illustrator & owner of Kitty Bee Designs, Ruth Johnson, has done it again and today we get to share her latest Halloween images with you.  Oh my everyone you're gonna love these new images! They have the signature Kitty Bee cuteness stamped all over them!  These stamps are available in the Etsy store right now.  Keep reading for a bonus coupon code you can use on your purchase in honor of Labor Day.

Did I mention there were prizes?

• 3 lucky commentators will win a digital image of their choice from the new release. 
• In order to be eligible make sure you visit everyone's blog and leave a comment (1 comment per blog please).  
• Why?  We're randomly picking 3 blogs from the hop and from those chosen we'll randomly pick a comment from each and they will be the winners for this release.
• **Now not all the blogs will get picked so you raise your chances by leaving a comment on all the blogs. 
• Hop ends a week from today, 9/7/14 at 11pm Hawaii time.  
• Winners will be announced on Tuesday, 9/9/14 on the Kitty Bee Designs blog.

How can you resist that?!  Head on over there after the hop and pick up the whole release and any new images you see there.

Ok now that all the important stuff is out of the way let's get on to the fun stuff!  Here's my project featuring Frankin Owl, and his family wishing you all a Happy Halloween!

Had some fun creating a spooky cute scene with Frankin owl.  After printing him out 3 more times I used Copics markers to give them each their own identity.  It's my very own little Frankin owl family.

The background is a MIC digi which I colored with Distress inks and used my cloud stencil.  The kawaii tree is from the Cricut Create a Critter 2 cartridge.  I used a wood stamp to add more details and went over him with Distress inks too.  The picket fence is from Whiff of Joy and the grass is actually an icicle border from CC Designs (CC Cutter).  Last was adding the Happy Halloween sentiment up top, which is from AmyR for CC Designs.  Here's a close-up of the family....

I hope you enjoyed my share today.  Your next stop on the hop is Elina's blog.  I bet she's going to make you squeal with her reveal.  Don't forget to leave a comment before you go.  I hope you have fun with the rest of the hop and don't forget to pick up some of the new stamps that are in the Etsy store right now.

Mahalo for stopping by!!

Kitty Bee Designs February Release Blog Hop

**(If you're looking for my Kitty Bee Designs CH #16 post please scroll down, Thnx!)**

Hello!

**SORRY EVERYONE. ALL OF MY LINKS HAVE NOW BEEN UPDATED. SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE!!**

Welcome to the Kitty Bee Designs February release blog hop! Today the Kitties & Bees are teaming up on this special blog hop to introduce the newest digis just released in the Kitty Bee Designs Etsy store.

Ruth has been hard at work creating some new & kawaii animal images just in time for Valentine's Day.   The new release is already in the KBD Etsy store and includes (3 of each) Kitties, Pandas, Red Pandas and Racoons.  All super adorable and cuddly, just like all of the Kitty Bee Designs stamps.  With so many to choose from you're bound to find the one that would be perfect for that special Valentine.  I think you could even use some of these to make fun and easy Valentine's day post cards for your kids and their friends/classmates.  Just Sayin' ;)

If you've arrived here from Katie's blog you're on the right path, if not you'll find the full list of blogs over on the Kitty Bee Designs blog.  (I will also post the full list below)  **You'll want to make sure that you hop to each of our blogs and leave a comment because you might be the lucky one to win a digi from the new release!  The more blogs you comment on the better chance of winning.  Entries close at 10am (Hawaii time) on Friday, Feb 7th with the winner being announced on the following Sunday.  Good luck!!

Here's the image I got to play with, Red Panda Heart Bubbles.

So I've never really seen a red panda before, so of course I had to do some research on Google and I came across some adorable photos which I thought I would share.  These are such cute creatures with some crazy colored fur!  hahaha!!  BTW, they are not RED, but more like a burnished brown leather color.  They made me smile so I hope they make you smile too. 

This one is so lazy!! Doesn't it make ya want to take a nap too?  hehehe...

I think this next picture captures the full details of the red panda. Looks like a giant fox to me.  Crazy coloring yea? But what a cute and cuddly animal.

Sorry to get off track!  Here's my project...

I used the Deconstructed Sketch #135 today, sorta squished it all on to the small 5x5 card.  I had a little bit of a challenge with this one, but lucky for me my friend Jovana was over and she helped me get to where I wanted my little red panda to be.  Thanks Jo!!  >.<

 

Now I think you've been here long enough, it's time to leave a comment and then you're off to Taniaj's blog where she's showcasing another kawaii image in the new release.

 

Have a Happy Aloha Friday everyone!!  And a prosperous Lunar New Year...  Oh look Si-foo who happens to be a red panda kung-fu master!  hahaha...

Mahalo for stopping by!

Cyber Monday Blog Hop with The Greeting Farm

Hello and Happy Cyber Monday!

Today I'm so happy to be joining a group of crafters who love The Greeting Farm in an awesome blog hop.  Make sure to stop by The Greeting Farm blog for the full list of participants and make sure to leave a comment below and on everyone's blog, there just might be some prizes a long the way.

It's been so long since I created something with a TGF stamp, I feel so bad!  I thought I'd go with an oldie and use her for a fun Christmas project.  I've been having a lot of fun with big tags so I thought I'd keep it simple and use some traditional colors for this one.

Angel Anya Christmas tag

This is Angel Anya and she was one of the first stamps I received when I was first introduced to The Greeting Farm.  She's still a classic beauty and one of my favorites.  I also added the beautiful TGF snowflake die right behind her.  Alrighty, gonna keep it nice and short so you can get to the next blog. Hope you enjoyed my project.

Top of the tag

Mahalo for stopping by, wishing you all a happy cyber Monday and happy shopping/hopping!  Don't forget to leave a comment before you goooooo!!  Go back to The Greeting Farm BLOG...

Angel Anya

You have until NOON tomorrow (CST) to enter to win and winners will be announced shortly after on the FACEBOOK page!  GOOD LUCK to all!

Hugs,

Y&FH Team Blog Hop Battle

Good morning everyone!!

Welcome to the Y&FH Team Yumi vs. Team Fumi Blog Hop Battle!  If you're here from Olivia's blog then you are on the right track!  If not, then head on over to Yumi & Fumi Handmade blog to start at the beginning.  You'll find all the details and things you need to do to win some blog hop prizes.

Team Yumi Yummies vs. Team Fumi Faves

Ends: 11/18/13, 11pm pst. 

Here is my Fumi fave prize giveaway:

I've got  2 spools of ribbon (sheer sparkly & lace), buttons & die cut burlap paper reindeer and leaves.  I have been having tons of fun with burlap paper, and making tags.  Just getting in to the spirit of the Christmas holiday so that is where the buttons, animals, leaves and buttons come from.  The ribbon just "ties" everything together.  (hahaha)  Here's how I used these embellishments:

Winter Chuckles & Winter Fumi Christmas tags

These were the tags that we created on Saturday at the Carson Rubber Stamp show.  These embellishments or add-ons made these tags truly stand out.  Besides the items above I will throw in a few more things.  Let's just see what I have left over.  Take a closer look at each tag...

Winter Chuckles "Be Jolly"

Love how it turned out and using the different pieces really made this tag pop!  Here's the other one...

Winter Fumi "Holiday Cheer"

I can see my self either hanging these on our Christmas tree or decorating a bag.  Really had a lot of fun making these.  That's all I have for now, before you head on over to Renate's blog make sure you leave a comment and link up below too.

A reminder, here's what you need to do:
1. Go through the blog hop and leave a comment on everyone's blog post
2. When you go back to the Y&FH blog you will vote 1 time by leaving a comment with your favorite designer who you think used the theme the best. We'd also love to hear what you liked about their project so please include that in your comment.
3. Link up on the main blog for a chance at the grand prize!!

Mahalo for stopping by!!  Have a great Aloha Friday!!

As you know the team from Yumi & Fumi Handmade is spotlighting each of the Kigurumi images on their blogs.  I get to spotlight one of my favorites, Fumi Panda and I used Perfect Layers ruler #1 to mat all of my papers. 

Fumi Panda - Kigurumi Series Y&FH

Here's what I came up with, hope you like...

Boo with Fumi Panda

Since Halloween is just around the corner I decided to make this Halloween themed card with Fumi dressing up as a Panda Munster.  hahaha!  Do any of you remember the tv show The Munsters?  It was mostly a black & white program, but they did have a couple colored movies and I took my inspiration of color from that.  It was a lot of fun to color her up in shades of what I like to call Munster green, with red-orange eyes and purple hair.  The only thing normal here is the color of her outfit.  

After coloring and distressing my image I grabbed my Perfect Layers ruler #1 and an Exacto knife to do the following cuts all with the intention of layering up my papers. The cool thing is all of these measurements are on 1 ruler!  Pretty convenient and easy!:

1. Matted my colored image on to some lime green cardstock and using the 1/8" mark as my guide to cut all four sides.   
2. Matted that to some fun orange spider paper and used the lime green cardstock as my guide to cut using the 5/8" mark.  
3. The next layer is a dark gray with black glitter designs which is cut at the 3/8" mark.   
4. The last mat is the lime green polka dot paper which is cut using the 1/4" mark and I used the dark gray patterned paper as my guide.  

To finish off my card I used a few products from my plethora of craft supplies, and some go to companies (C.C. Designs and Stampin' Up).

BOO

Now it's time to hop on over to the amazingly talented Kim O'Connell's blog, but before you get hoppin' don't forget to leave a comment.  Mahalo for stopping by and enjoy the rest of the hop!

Hugs,

Leanne

Happy Birthday Kathy!!

Hello!

We're having a special birthday celebration over at the Yumi & Fumi blog for Kathy from Team Fumi!!  It's her birthday today and we decided to celebrate her turning another year "younger" with Kathy's very own birthday blog post.  Stop by the Y&FH blog to see all the pretty cards and projects created for Kathy's special day.

Kathy was the one that got me to go to stamp camp and she's also someone that I find tons of inspiration from.  She's super nice, a talented crafter and is fun to be around.  We're always laughing about something. For her card I chose to use the current photo inspiration for Challenge # 25 at Yumi & Fumi Handmade.  If you haven't been by yet, just click on the link below.  Here is a picture of the photo and if you didn't know... It's anything goes.

CHALLENGE # 25 

PHOTO INSPIRATION

Photo inspiration - CH #25

With summer now coming to an end and the chill of fall creeping in we wanted to end September with pretty bright colors before heading in to those lovely Fall ones. I'm lucky that one of Kathy's favorite colors is green!  Yay!! So my project ties in well for both.  Sweet!!  Here's my card featuring Yumi with Bookbag. 

Happy Birthday with Yumi Bookbag

I had a lot of fun making this one.  I masked Yumi first and taking a lantern rubber stamp I did a grouping of them right behind her.  The flowers are actually ribbon that I colored using a couple of Copics.  I added a touch of bling with the rhinestones and the confetti.  I mounted/layered up some white cardstock with a piece of green cardstock and mounted it all on to the peach card.   The sentiment is from Island Scrapbooking which I colored to match the rest of the card.

Kathy, Happy Birthday!!  I want you to know how much I appreciate our friendship and how much I cherish you.  May your birthday be blessed and fun and I hope all your wishes come true.  Love ya girl!!

Now don't forget to stop by Kathy's blog to wish her a Happy Birthday.  Thanks a lot for stopping by, have a great day!!

Hugs,
Leanne

HB2U - Lollipop Crafts 2nd Anniversary Hop

*Scroll down for my SCRS post.*

(Let's try this again!)
Aloha and welcome to the Lollipop Crafts 2^nd Annual blog hop!  We're jumping in from our long hiatus with this celebratory blog hop.  You should have arrived from Sony’s blog, but if you didn’t you’re in for a treat!  You should head on over to the Lollipop Crafts blog to start at the beginning because that's where the celebration starts!  You won’t want to miss out on any of the DT’s pages. Why?  Well there are hidden prizes everywhere!  Not only are there hidden prizes on our pages, but there are prizes hiding on the LC blog too.  The hop starts today, 8/1 at the Lollipop Crafts blog and will run until 8/4. That gives you plenty of time to get to everyone’s pages and comment.  Now it wouldn't be fun with just a blog hop right?  Of course not!  That's why we're also adding a Celebration Challenge to the mix.  All you have to do is create a project, card or 3-D, anything you like with a "Celebration" theme and upload it to our LC page.   It's a short challenge, running through 8/4.  The details are all on the LC blog post.  Including the long list of our wonderful sponsors.

We are also super excited to welcome our guest designer for August.  Please say a big Aloha to Barbara of Forgotten Scraps and creator of Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  Did you all know that Barbara was on the very first LC design team?  She was and we are all excited to have her come back to help us celebrate.  Welcome Barbara, so happy to have you joining us this month! J

Now let's get to my share... I created this card using two little girls that are close to my heart.  Meet Yumi & Fumi from ______________(can you guess?).  (It shouldn't be too hard... LOL)
They wanted to help celebrate with a HB2U banner...  

I cased my fellow, YFH DT, Eva's card that she posted here.  I colored Yumi (on the right) & Fumi (on the left) with Copics and the HB2U is also written with a Copic marker.  Yes you can use your Copics for things other than coloring.  I used the neglected chiseled side of the marker to write out the HB2U.  The hearts were punched out with two different punches and I layered the top ones up with pop dots.  Also used two different Fiskars border punches for the top and bottom.   The designer paper is from DCWV THE RUSTIC stack.  LOVE THIS PAPER PAD.  This card is a bit different than what I'm used to, but I like it and may use this one more often. 

Before I send you off to the next blog, I want to thank those of you who participated in the June and July month long challenges.  You are all the reason why we are still here.  Thank you!

Don’t forget to leave a comment before you head on over to my team captain, Alanna’s blog. 

Happy 2^nd Anniversary Lollipop Crafts!  Cheers to many, many more!! 

Mahalo for stopping by! J

Hugs, Leanne J

Yumi & Fumi Handmade Crafts blog hop and stamp showcase

Hello!!!

If you just arrived from Renate's blog then you are on the right track.  If you just popped in to say hi and see what I'm up to, then you are in luck.  We are having our first introductory blog hop at Yumi & Fumi Handmade Crafts!!  Head on over to YFHC blog and start at the beginning.  Lots of fun stuff going on over there and you don't want to miss anything!!

I hope you have been enjoying the hop so far.  Today I get to share my card featuring "Fumi" of the duo Yumi & Fumi.  She's named after me and see those buns on her head?  Well from time to time I would have my hair up like that too.  That's how she was "born" so to speak. hahaha!!  The stamp is one and measures 2.5" x 3.25".  You can either separate them or stamp them together.

Here is the card I made going pretty CAS with lots of layers.  O and that beautiful crotched flower was from my fellow DT and friend Kim Yu!! She's amazingly talented and I had to force myself to add the flower since I hoard all of her yummy creations. hahaha!

She's so cute yea?!  They all are.  I used the bubble border and sentiment from ATS.  Also used Spellbinders scalloped heart and regular heart to create the sentiment window.

Alrighty, now you should be on your way to see Sandie!!!  She's last on the showcase but she's got the piece de resistance!  It's sooo cute and totally encompasses Yumi & Fumi perfectly!  hahaha!!

Mahalo for stopping by and I hope you all enjoy yourselves!!

Hugs,

Leanne

Happy Release Day Sister Stamps!!

Hello and welcome to the last day of the Sister Stamps 1st Anniversary blog hop.  You should have hopped on over from the fabulous Amy Young's blog, but if you didn't and want to get some inspiration and possibly win a stamp then head on over to the Sister Stamps blog and start at the beginning.

Whew, it's been a wonderful 4 days of hopping and I hope you are all inspired by what you have seen from everyone that participated in this awesome celebration.  I wanted to say first and foremost Mahalo to Jenny for asking me to be a part of not only a release GDT, but also a participant in this wonderful celebrational blog hop.  Thank you to Jenny and Denise for these wonderful images and a big CONGRATULATIONS on turning 1!  Cheers to many, many more!  And to my blog hop sisters you gals ROCK, I am so inspired by all that you do and create and I am so happy to be in your company. XOXO!!

For my last day's share I wanted to do an altered project.  I bought a set of boxes from Michael's way back and they have been sitting on the shelf waiting for attention.  I finally broke down and altered one.  This is the second box in a set of 3 and I thought it was appropriate for the last day of the hop.  Hope you like it...

Now this is the side of the box.  I used washi paper to cover the box and the lid.  The dies are the familiar C.C. Designs bubble border and the MS flower border

Next up is the top of the lid featuring Mariko with a special message:

Now what's say we see what's under the lid yea?  Why it's a card with Mariko on it!!  What else is under there?

More cards featuring all three characters from the new release.  Here's Mariko...

And Miyoko

And last but certainly not least, Takeo



I hope you liked my last day's share as I had a grand time making them.  Don't forget today is the BIG release day, so head on over to the Sister Stamps blog and check out their sidebar for a list of vendors. 

Now it's time to say Aloha and hop on over to Nadine's amazing blog.  Tell her I sent ya.

Mahalo for stopping by the past few days and leaving wonderful comments.  I hope you enjoyed the hop as well as all the wonderful creations from all the lovely and talented ladies using these adorable stamps.  Take care and happy hopping & shopping!!

Hugs,

Leanne

Mariko's gift to you... Happy Birthday Sister Stamps!!

Helllllllooooo!!!

Today is day three of the Sister Stamps 1st Anniversary blog hop.  If you've just hopped from Amy's blog then you are definitely on the right path.  If not, head on over to the beginning at the Sister Stamps blog and enjoy the ride.  Each blog has a very special project geared toward this celebration and girls we are having so much fun sharing!  Now what's a hop without some fun prizes yea?  Well make sure you hop over to everyone's blog for a chance to win some secret prizes.

Today Mariko is making her way on to my blog with a bright and cheery Happy Birthday!!  When I first saw her on Jenny's blog, it was during a very special birthday blog hop for my Lollipop DT sista Kris.  When I saw how cute that little girl was, I knew that I wanted her.  hahaha.  You have to check out that adorable box she made its awesome!  Okie dokie sorry to distract you... hahaha!  Here is Mariko in all her fun orange glory...

Now you are probably thinking eh it looks like any normal CAS card yea?  Fun Happy Birthday die cut word (Thanks Jenny!) with cool white frosted accents...

or the same frosted white border on the orange dp and the yellow bubble border up the side, which btw is another cool C.C. Designs cutter die.  Not to mention the white and black oval/scalloped oval Spellbinder dies and on top the adorable Mariko, right?  Well I really wanted to do something a bit different so let's turn the card on it's side and see what I did...

Tada!!  She is actually 3-D!!  Surprise!!  hahaha!  Did this take long?  Yep it certainly did, but I love how it turned out and definitely worth it.  I think I used a total of 4 layers.  It was definitely something I've never tried before and boy you really have to have tons of patience.  I received a beautiful card from one of my swap sisters, Malise, with a similar technique.  She totally blew me away with all the details.  I will definitely share that card soon.  I've also seen this technique done on the ATS blog by Mariska.  All her projects have 3-D images and they look soo cool.

Now before you hop on make sure to come back tomorrow for the last day of this awesome four day event.  It's release day and we all have one more creation to share featuring one or all of the new releases.  Make sure to start at the Sister Stamps blog.

Alrighty, it's now time to hop on over to Nadine's lovely blog.  She's got a very special creation to share with you.  Don't forget to leave her some ALOHA.  Mahalo for stopping by!  See you tomorrow!!

Hugs,
Leanne
