Hello friends and welcome to day two of our previews from There She Goes. You should be arriving here from my sweet friend Mercy's blog. If not then please head back to the TSG blog to get started. You don't want to miss anyone along the way.

Today we are showing you a new set called DREAM A NEW DREAM. This beautiful floral themed stamp set was illustrated by TSG artist Chris Dark. We have all come to know and love Chris’s amazing talent for realistic stamp images and this set is no exception! The variety of sentiments are great for many different card types and because the images are so detailed, coloring is fun and easy- no more worrying about how to shade!

Dream A New Dream is a 6x8 stamp set that includes a total of 18 of stamps and will sell for $24.

Here is my card using one of the flowers and sentiments from the set. I also used this week's sketch from Card Patterns CPS78.

Paper Pretties Wednesday Challenge - PWC116

** I have 4 posts today ..... There She Goes, All That Scraps, Club Anya & Friends and Paper Pretties. Thank you so much for bearing with me today.

Hello friends and happy Wednesday. It's time for our weekly challenge at Paper Pretties and today our challenge is called "Back to School". For my card I used one of the newly released stamps from Paper Pretties called Cowboy Cooper. I'm sure you're wondering about right now how Cowboy Cooper could be related to the Back to School theme. But what you don't know is that Cooper has already decided he is going to be a Rodeo Rider when he grows up so he wears his costume and brings his toy horse when it's Career Day at school. LOL. Let me know what you think about Cooper. 



We hope you can play along with us this week. Leave a link to your project on the Paper Pretties blog. One random participant this week will win a Paper Pretties stamp set.  You do not need to use Paper Pretties stamps in order to play along, but if you do, you will get a bonus entry into the drawing! Please be sure to mention our challenge and link back to the Paper Pretties blog in your project posting. If you upload to a public gallery please use the keyword PWC116.

Thanks for joining me today and I'll see you back here tomorrow.

All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge - CRINKLE RIBBON

** I have 4 posts today ..... There She Goes, All That Scraps, Club Anya & Friends and Paper Pretties. Thank you so much for bearing with me today.


Hello friends and happy Tuesday. It’s time for our weekly challenge at the All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge Blog. Today our challenge is to use "Crinkled Ribbon" on your card/project. For my card today I used two newly released images from the ATS store, C.C. Designs Swiss Pixies Halloween Hansel Rubber Stamp image and a wagon from the Take a Seat Stamp Kit. There is a tutorial for the crinkled ribbon here. I did not have this kind of ribbon (the tutorial uses seam binding) on hand so I used some satin ribbon and "crinkle" folded it and glued it to my card. I also used this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge SSSC82. Let me know what you think please.







Be sure to head over to the ATS Wednesdays Challenge Blog to play along with us!  Every week there is a new and exciting prize being offered…but in order to be eligible to win, your card must include a stamp that is sold in the All That Scraps store. Whether it is one of our wonderful in-house designs or from the various other stamp companies that ATS carries, the choice is yours. Then be sure to link up your creation with Mr Linky by next Tuesday at 10:00pm EST with only one entry per person please!

Thanks for stopping by again today. Goodbye my friends.

Club Anya & Friends - Wed. TOOT "Texture"

** I have 4 posts today ..... There She Goes, All That Scraps, Club Anya & Friends and Paper Pretties. Thank you so much for bearing with me today.

Hello friends and happy Wednesday. Today's TOOT at Club Anya & Friends is brought to us by my sweet friend Kelly. Kelly has done a video showing you several ways to add "texture" to your card. You are going to love it. For my card I used Cuddle Anya and then used a Cuttlebug embossing folder to add dots to one of the panels on my card. Let me know what you think.


Make sure and head over to the CA&F blog to view Kelly's tutorial. Add some texture to your card and load it to the TGF Galleria.

Thanks for coming by. Have a great day. Goodbye friends.

There She Goes is proud to add another mini stamp set to the Stamps For A Cause line!

Jessica is a former Chemo Angel herself, and she is well aware of all of the wonderful things that they do for patients that are undergoing cancer treatment.

ANGEL MAIL is a 3x4 stamp set that includes a total of 6 of stamps and will sell for $7.

It’s hard to believe that with all of the awesome stamp sets that TSG has come out with in the last year and a half that there still isn’t a baby themed stamp set yet! I’m happy to say that we can finally check that theme off of our to do list :) Torico has illustrated some wonderful baby themed images that include both line art and silhouette images so that you have the versatility of coloring images or stamping them together to create quick and easy baby themed projects!

BIT OF STARDUST is a 4x8 stamp set that includes a total of 28 of stamps and will sell for $18.

For my preview today I used the set BIT OF STARDUST. Here is my card and a pic of Mercy's sketch.

Club Anya & Friends is Sponsoring SFYTT

Hello friends and happy Saturday. Sorry my post is late this morning. I painted my son’s room yesterday and had to unhook all his computer equipment, his computer has all our wireless connections for the house. Unfortunately I forgot to plug the phone line back in after setting everything back up in his room and for the life of me I couldn’t figure out why my wireless connection for my laptop wasn’t working this morning. Finally found out I forgot to plug in the phone line so here I am now. Better late than never huh? LOL

Today CA&F is sponsoring the awesome Sketch For You to Try (SFYTT) over on Jen del Muro’s blog. I have been a long time fan of Jen’s sketches. There is a prize being offered on the CA&F blog and Jen’s blog (2 different prizes, woohoo) so make sure you check them both out. Here is my card using Friday Creeper. I paired her with some new Basic Grey paper from the Olivia pack. I flipped my card for the sketch.

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you can play along with Jen’s wonderful sketch today. Goodbye my friends.

For my card I used one of the newly released stamps from Paper Pretties called Garden Fairy Katie. This is a design by Victoria Case and she just screams summer to me as do the colors I used. Look at this sweet fairy.


And here is a close up so you can see the sparkle on her wings.
