TBT - Hugs from Amelia

Morning!

Hope you are all doing well.  Thank you all so much for the inspiring comments.  I greatly appreciate them.  For today's throwback Thursday post I made a card using another Amelia image that I colored up a week ago.

If you're not familiar with this Amelia you must be a newbie to the Greeting Farm.  (hahaha)  She was one of the very first Amelia's from the OA sets, OA Buddies to be exact.  Now I know why I haven't colored her up in so long, there are too many details!!  hahaha!  Anyways, it was fun to color and fun cut her out.  Going with the colors of brown, light blue & yellow and a pop of red was the only way to go here.  The papers are all older, the only parts that aren't are the die cuts.  The "hugs" sentiment is from Lawn Fawn, the swooshes are from the MFT Ride the Wave die, so happy I finally have this one!  The stars are also from MFT Blueprints #13.

Thanks for stopping in today.  I'll be back tomorrow with a new Aloha Friday challenge card.  Have a terrific TBT!! 

TBT - Amelia the Little Dreamer calendar

Hello!

I'm back with another calendar and throwback OA image.  This is Amelia from the OA Little Dreamer stamp set from the Greeting Farm.  Here is today's Throwback Thursday...

I used products from Hanko Designs which include the card bases, mattes and that beautiful washi paper.  The embossed sentiment is from an older AmyR stamp set.  Going with the same CAS design made this quick & easy to put together.  Yay!

Thank you for stopping by today, have a great Thursday!!

A Lovey Dovey Amelia calendar

Good morning!

Happy 2nd day of August!

I've decided to do 6 more calendars using the rest of the Amelia's from the Greeting Farms OA stamps sets!  Yep, might as well. (gulp! hahaha!)  I think this one is my favorite so far.  The sweet Amelia from the OA Lovey Dovey set fit right in with this origami paper that I've had in my stash for ages...

I know, I know it's August, but I took this picture on July 30th.  Isn't she sweet?  And I love that origami paper.  The colors are beautiful and the shapes are fun.  She fits right in.  Colored her with Copics and her hair was colored with the V90 series.  Love that shade.  The sentiment is from Paper Smooches and was stamped and clear embossed.

Thanks again for stopping by, enjoy the rest of your Sunday!!  I will be back tomorrow for a fun Spotlight post with Kitty Bee Designs.  Until then take care!!

Lilo's Fun Friday #92

Hello!!

Happy Late Aloha Friday!  Hope you're all having a great day!

For Lilo's Fun Friday #92 I'm continuing with my calendar shares of Amelia from the Greeting Farm.  I honestly have not been working on anything else. lol.  I've got some other projects in the works and if I finish them I'll be sharing, but for now I hope you're not getting tired of seeing Amelia.  I sure am NOT.  hahaha!

I previously used Amelia OA - Summer Fun in this calendar.  I originally had her colored up way different than what she is now.  Fuchsia hair, green and purple swimsuit, it was pretty bad, (hahaha).  I had to put her aside, but went back to her to give her a makeover.  After choosing this origami paper I decided to go for a different colored hair and outfit and I have to say the transformation is so much better than the original.  Love how Copic markers can do that!!  So after coloring her hair that pretty shade of orange I decided to paper piece her outfit and hair barrettes.  They were the perfect combo.  Instead of a laser cut sentiment I chose one from a well-loved AmyR stamp set.  The rest was put together very quickly.

Okie dokes, hoping you all have a fantastik Friday and weekend!  I'm looking forward to some more crafting time.  Mahalo for stopping by!

TBT - Happy Day Calendar

Hello!

For today's Throwback Thursday post I picked another way back when Amelia from The Greeting Farm OA Happy Day stamp set.  And guess what?!  I made another calendar with her.  hahaha!  I know, I know.  hahaha!  I'm slowly whittling away the big stack...

Each time I see her I always picture pink hair!!  Not just any shade of pink, but a light pink.  I think I pulled it off.  I colored the rest of her with greens, blues and yellows.  She is a doll and totally reminds me of a Harujuku girl.  hehe.  I used another of the washi papers my dear cousin SharGD sent to me and happy with another CAS result.  The sentiment is another Island Scrapbooking laser cut phrase which I colored to match her boots.

Hope you all have a terrific Thursday!  Thank you for stopping by!

My Favorite Thing Amelia calendar

Hello!

I've been having fun making up some mini calendars with my considerable amount of washi papers, 2015 calendars and the different Amelia stamps from The Greeting Farm.  Here's the newest one I've completed...

This is Amelia from the OA - My Favorite Thing stamp set.  I colored her with Copics, fun cut her out with a white border and glued her down flat for easy mailing.  That pretty washi paper is from the stash my cousin SharGD sent to me.  Let me say that she sent me a bunch of washi paper, so it will take some time to get through all of them.  I don't mind, it'll be fun to see what I can do with each of them.

Amelia - OA-MFT

Well nothing like a very short post to get the day started right.  Hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday!  Appreciate you stopping by! 

Happy Amelia calendar & some winners!

Hello and Happy Sunday!

Today I have a happy calendar to share.  Hopefully it will make you smile...

Featuring another Amelia stamped image from the Greeting Farm (OA -Summer Fun), a Heidi Swapp die-cut word, and some fun washi paper this calendar was a whole lot of fun to put together.  The koi washi paper was gifted to me from my cousin SharGD (thanks Maine!) and I thought it would make the cutest back drop for this sweet summer fun Amelia.  After coloring her with Copics and fun cutting her with a white border I glued her down flat to make it seem like she's wading in the water and the fish are nibbling at her toes.  I cut out a few extra fish and positioned them around her feet.  She's giggling because they are tickling her toes.  (hahaha)

Have a Blast with Sketch #7!

Hello Friends!!

Today over at the Farm Fresh Challenge blog we are playing with another sketch created by our Team captain, Rachel Schneider for this week's W.O.W. challenge. 

Pretty cool yea?  I like the simpleness of it.  If you'd like to see what the design team created using her sketch, check them out HERE. : )

I colored up the brand new Amelia stamp from the O&A Summer Fun set.  This new set is super cute and you can use them in so many fun summer fun settings.  There are also three cool sentiments.  I paired her up with fun bright colored papers and another cloud background.  She's also got pink hair! 

Yep, she looks so fun with pink hair, especially with the fun water/cloud background.  I sure am having fun creating these cloud backgrounds.  Hmmm... colored hair and cloud backgrounds, uh-oh!  (hehe)  We'll see how far I can take it before I decide to change it up again.  For now, they are staying.  I hope you have a blast creating your own card or project using Sketch #7.  I sure did...
