Sentimental Sundays #12 - For Men

Welcome back for a new challenge with Sentimental Sundays. This is challenge #12, and the theme this week is: For Men

I've used one of Ann's lovely sentiments from the Kimberly's Sentiments set. Don't forget to check for a free set of sentiments on the Sentimental Sundays blog, you don't want to miss them!  I've also used Dude by Victoria Case.  Isn't he a cutie?

Be sure to use a sentiment somewhere on your card, and to follow the theme however you may interpret it. While Ann (Raindrop Echo Designs) offers fabulous freebies, and also sells a wide variety of sentiment stamps at Whimsy Stamps, you are free to use any sentiment. Be sure to link up on the Sentimental Sundays blog before the next challenge to be in the running for a fabulous prize, and use a direct link to make it easy for us to find your new card or project.

Here are a few challenges this card works with:
Stamp Something:  Digital
Color Throwdown #101: Kiwi kiss, Black, Kraft, Baja Breeze

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Spotlight Anya

The little cutie on the front of this card is Anya from the Spotlight Scrap Kit by The Greeting Farm. Is she adorable, or what? The 'My Friend' sentiment is from the same set. I'm so hoping they do more kits like this, they may even get me back to doing some scrapbooking!

This is the inside of the card with another of Ann Vento's fabulous sentiments! Be sure to stop by and visit her Raindrop Echo Designs blog, and what for tomorrow's digi release at Whimsy Stamps.

I'm entering this card in a few challenges:
Anyone for Anya?: Get in Shape (recipe)
Sketchy Colors #19: Pink, Grey, and White
Club Anya #14: Sketch
Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge #78: Get Well
Simple Doodles #15: Inspire Others (just create something!)
FFF at TGF: Spring Cleaning (found the flower bling at the bottom of a storage box)

Alice and Humpty Dumpty

Hey All! Hope everyone is having a great weekend, and enjoying some pleasant weather wherever you are around the world.

I recently had the pleasure of being introduced to Ann Vento of Raindrop Echo Designs. She creates some pretty fabulous sentiment stamps in rubber, and now in digi as well. This awesome Friendship digi stamp is one of Ann's new releases for Monday (April 12, 2010) at Whimsy Stamps. You can visit her page there, and see her sets in rubber as well: HERE

The adorable Alice and Humpty Dumpty image is from the 4th sheet of Elaine Cox stamps, sold by Sweet Pea Stamps. Sweet Pea Stamps and it's owner, Lynette, are a favorite of mine. Not only do they have some of the most fabulous fantasy artists around, but you couldn't ask to purchase these stamps from a sweeter person than Lynette. I originally got hooked on the Ching-Chou Kuik Fantasy Art Collection there at Sweet Pea, and couldn't resist the adorable Gum Drop Gang. While the Gum Drop Gang are not fantasy images, they are just plain cute! Most recently they've added Elaine Cox and Lisa Victoria to their list of fabulous fantasy artists. If you haven't been collecting them, you have a lot of catching up to do! You can visit the store: HERE

I'm entering this card in a few challenges:
Oh, Alice! #8: Use Flowers
ColourQ Challenge #27: Tangerine Tango, Night of Navy, Tempting Turquoise, Soft Suede, and White
Allsorts Challenge #47: Petals and Pearls
