Happy Feet...I've Got Those Happy Feet...

I hear that song a lot on Pandora. <3 Jim Henson's Muppet songs! This image makes me think of that song. Partially cause this lil guy is so happy, and partially because of the movie...which I never watched...but whatevs.

I used 2 images from The Stamp Doctor. They are from a set called, "Let It Snow Circles". Also, I used 2 sets of Spellbinder's dies (also available through the stamp doctor). I colored this cutie with copics, and then I added some paint dots and copic dots to make it look like its snowing in the image. I think it works! Love him! The papers I used are from Basic Grey, and are from a line called, "Jovial".
I honestly used to despise making Christmas cards, but over time, paper makers have made it much easier with less garish colors and super adorable stamps! Now, I kinda look forward to it! Yay!

Hope you enjoy! Stop by and check out "The Stamp Doctor"! Lots of new and adorable things!

Playing Catch Up.

And BOY did I! Man, I got a MONTH behind on Smash*ing! SO bad! I am caught up tho! Finally...mostly...

On this page I used one of the baggie pockets I made awhile back. So happy to get to use my happy pockets! The items on the bottom are the items that go in the baggie pocket.





 I feel so much better! I have been crafting like mad lately, but until today I wasn't able to share most of it! Its because its for the awesome STAMP DOCTOR! Be sure to check them out and sign up for the newsletter!

Hope you all have a Smash*ing weekend! I plan to head  out to Maker Faire in Nashville tomorrow with my family. Can't wait!



Fun ATC swappin!

Finally getting in on my first ATC swap and I am so excited! For so many reasons, but first and foremost...I am FINISHED! Early even! Me? No way. I am on a roll. I am struggling to balance real life and my crazy motivation to craft lately, but I am almost managing!

The theme of the swap this time is "spooky" and I had a lot of fun with it. For whatever reason I really have fun with fall/Halloween colors. It just came together.

On the OTHER hand...it will be a LONG time before I color 11 of the same items again....a LONG time. I get bored hahahahaha.


Over all I had a ton of fun making these and I can't WAIT to see the ones I will get in return next month! 



Walkin In A Winter Wonderland....

Oh, my GOODNESS! Can you believe its time to start getting your Christmas cards made? Or not, if you don't make your cards. I have this bias now that makes me think I have to make my own...Why buy a box of cards if you can tailor your cards to what you want?

So, as most of you know by now, and for those who don't, I am now a proud EMT over at The Stamp Doctor! Yeehaww! So exciting! I have been crafting away with all of the neat goodies you can buy over at The Stamp Doctor and I am loving them!

My favorite from the Holiday release has to be these custom reindeer dies! OH, so cute! I used them to make this adorbs card for Christmas. Or anything winter-y. This is me using some forward thought and trying to tell Mother Nature to BRING us a little snow this year. We got NOTHIN last year!

Anyhow, these deer needed to frolic. They HAD to! I had them frolic in some snow...er...sequins, and then added this sweet sentiment from the Let It Snow Circles stamp set also available over at The Stamp Doctor. NOW you know where to get some cute Christmas stuff!

I also did up the inside. HAD to. If you are walking in a winter wonderland you are going to need someone to warm your heart, don't you think?

Hope this gets your juices flowing so that you can get going on some of your own Christmas projects. Be sure to head over to The Stamp Doctor and check out the entire new Holiday release! Its great!!

Trick Or Treat!

Can you believe its almost that time? I can't wait. I love halloween! Noah is trying to decide between Harry Potter and a Minion for his costume. I have this sneaking suspicion he is going to be Harry.

I got inspired to make a card yesterday for me. I have been making lots of cards, but...SPOILERS. Srsly. Can't share em yet, but stay tuned to the Stamp Doctor for lots of creations from me and lots of other talented ladies.

Anyway, until then, here is an adorable card to keep you busy while you wait.


Just a quick, happy fallish card!!! Happy fall, ya'll!
