I Don't Think You're Ready!!

Or maybe you are! I see the hints over on the Three Companies Team Up blog have led a lot of people to guess the correct companies! If you never made it over there or are just wondering if your guess was right, the three companies that have come together to create an amazing line of Paris-inspired goodies (images, sentiments, and embellishments!) are Little Miss Muffet Stamps, Make it Crafty, and Whimsy Stamps!

Agent Eclair in Disguise - Little Miss Muffet Stamps, postage stamps - Whimsy Stamps, gorgeous chipboard from N1 Fancy Frames - Make it Crafty

Oh! Before you go running off, I want to let you know that Little Miss Muffet has nine new stamps in RUBBER! If all the news hasn't been exciting enough for you, there are also freebies over at Little Miss Muffet and on Barbara's blog, Forgotten Scraps!

Root Beer vs Dr. Pepper?

So yesterday I was talking to my father, and he mentioned that people either like root beer OR Dr. Pepper/Mr. Pibb but usually not both. Really?? Hmm... He loves root beer; I hate it. I love Dr. Pepper, but I don't drink sodas often enough for it to usually be my choice. (Mountain Dew!!)  Keep reading my rambling; it may be worth it... ;D

Today we have a new sketch at The Outlawz! Here's my take on it:

That cutie is a hybrid - The Greeting Farm's Cheeky Glamour up top and Cheeky Beauty for the body. Thanks to Amy (from A Thousand Sheets of Paper) for all the awesome YT vids showing how to switch TGF heads and bodies! I did have to cut the hair under the face to allow the shoulders to slide up close to the face. And since Cheeky Glamour's mouth is covered by her hand, I freehanded her mouth with a Spica pen using Cheeky Beauty as a guide. Paper is Bo Bunny's Crush, and the XO sticker is from K&Company.

Here's the sketch for those of you who might like to play along.

Now, if you're still here, tell me whether you like root beer, Dr. Pepper/Mr. Pibb, or both. Sunday afternoon I'll randomly pick one commenter and send her/him a set of Juliette stamps from SEI!

Little Miss Muffet New Releases - Payton/Allison & Abby

I'm having a hard time figuring out why I still haven't finished my card/project for the Thank You Challenge going on right now at Little Miss Muffet Stamps. Projects for people I know always take me too long! When I have no one in mind for a card or whatever, I can just put whatever I want on it, color it however I feel, etc... If you want to make some thank you cards - maybe you can get a super jump on thank you notes for the holidays - please feel free to enter the challenge!

If you'd like a  little inspiration to get you going, this week's new releases include a reading duo, Allison and Abby...

and a pigtailed fisher, Payton...

*I'll have to take another pic of this after the sun comes up. My orange looks like weird yellow in all of my normal picture-taking spots...

There are two more new stamps being showcased by the team tomorrow!
