Let's Get Tickled Pink

Good morning and welcome to another fabulous Sunday with Paper Sundaes Challenge Blog!!!  This week the challenge is circles - you could do a circle card, use circle papers, circle mats or just circle embellishments.  I've chosen circle patterns on my paper and circles on my lace trim.

The image I am using is Fashionette Lil Lolita - 20's Evie from Tickled Pink Stamps:

I love these new papers from the new Miss Caroline collection from My Mind's Eye.

Evie is coloured with copic markers.

Thank you for looking!  I look forward to seeing your circles at Paper Sundaes!

Christmas Tickled Pink Style

Happy Tuesday!  I'm so happy to report that I had a fabulous time in Calgary with Sherrie Siemens in Intermediate Copic Certification!  We played with reds among other things so I wanted to try a red dress on the beautiful Lil Christmas Lolita Willow:

The challenge at Tickled Pink Stamps Christmas Challenge is Something Hand Made.  So, I made a snowflake.  I took some old packaging from a toy my children received at Christmas and cut out a snowflake using my Big Shot.  I then took adhesive spray and applied it liberally to the snowflake before applying Stampin' Up Dazzling Diamonds - and Voila!  A beautiful snowflake!

This card will be entered into the following challenges:

Cupcake Craft - sketch

Tickled Pink Christmas - something hand made (snowflake)

Thank you for looking!!

Let's Get Shabby - Tickled Pink Style!

Happy Wednesday!  Today I'd love to share with you my project for this week's shabby chic/vintage challenge at Paper Sundaes.  Sadly, I finished this little sketch book project Saturday but just felt it was missing something so I wanted to add something.  Not sure what might be missing, but from a practical standpoint, if I want my fourteen year old niece to use it, I have to make it functional - so no poofy ribbons or gems or pearls.  Hopefully she'll like it! 

I cropped the 12 x 12 paper so that the frame spotlighted Lil Victorian Steampunk Lolita Evie.  I love this era of fashion.  My family moved to Edmonton in 1984 and for over twenty years I thoroughly enjoyed dressing up in Klondike/Gold Rush day fashion for the annual Klondike Days.

I am so happy with the shading on her dress!  I love all the folds.  I used the words on the paper to add a message to my niece on the front and on the inside cover.

I decorated the back inside cover but kept it fairly blank so that she can write her name or whatever on the back.  The sketch book is from Ecojot.

My niece's sketch book will be entered into the following challenges:

Creative Card Crew - For a Diva (what 14 year old girl isn't?)

All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes (you can buy this stamp here at ATS)

Thank you for looking!  I look forward to seeing your take on our shabby chic/vintage challenge!

Lil Fairy Kira

Happy Sunday!  This week on Paper Sundaes Challenge Blog we are asking you to "Pick Your Sundae Toppings"!  We'd like to see your creation with at least two of the following toppings: flowers, lace, the colour pink, or distressing.  For my creation I've topped my sundae with distressing and the colour pink.

This week's sponsor is Tickled Pink Stamps from Australia.  I had the pleasure of creating with one of their newest releases - Lil Fairy Kira:

These gorgeous papers are from Graphic 45.  I was unable to locate my edge distresser so I resorted to using the edges of my paper scissors.

Although difficult, I did manage to avoid glitter...although I am considering adding some dazzling diamonds and taking another picture in the morning...

Oh my how this past year has flown by!  Hard to believe that thirteen months ago my dear friend Christine, in a desperate attempt to boost my mood, suggested we start our own challenge blog.  Christine knew I'd take the idea and run - and she was right!  I tackled blog layout and banner design...and eventually even appointed myself sponsor coordinator and tackled the job of finding sponsors for our young blog.  Now Paper Sundaes Challenge Blog is a year old and has over 550 followers!!

To celebrate we are having a blog hop and a special challenge with multiple prizes!!  If you have arrived here from Alica's blog, then you are on the right track - and almost at the end!
