Time For An Update!

I've been very busy these last few months, setting up house and looking after my family, including two of the loveliest, cutest stepdaughters there ever were and the sweetest guy in the world, that I haven't really had time for an update. I have had time to make some cards and stuff, because my stepdaughters luuuuuurve to craft, and it's one of the things we enjoy doing together :D

I honestly couldn't tell you what materials and Copic colours I used, I'll try to do better next time...

Thank you for stopping by, hope to be back again soon with some more crafties!

Hugs,

Erica

Last Simply Sassy Sunday

I just did my last post for the Simply Sassy Inspiration Blog, I have had to make the decision to quit the team to focus on other, equally fun, things in my life. Only so many hours in the day right ;o).

Domestic Goddess

which is out of stock at the moment, but will no doubt be back soon! I have used only browns and a bit of red to colour on kraft and I'm fairly happy with the result :D.

Simply Sassy Sunday Sneak Peek!

Hi all, today I'm showing you a sneak peek of one of the fantastic new stamps in set 10 of the Simply Sassy stamps (can you believe, ten sets!). The stamp is called "Love Letters" but I think I'll call her Sophie...

Sophie is a beautiful girl and very popular with the boys. Every day her poor postman gives himself a hernia dragging the sackfulls of love letters to Sophie's door. You see, Sophie doesn't have a computer or a smartphone so no texting, e-mailing or What's App'ing for her, if the boys want her attention they'd better send her a nice love letter, the old-fashioned way! Today she received four letters she really likes and now she has to make up her mind which of the boys to go out with! Can't wait to hear Sophie's choice... ;o)

Card Ingredients:

Stamps: Simply Sassy "Love Letters"; Magnolia background stamp
Paper: Bazzill Basics cardstock kraft, white; DCWV design paper Linen Closet
Embellishments: Wild Orchid Crafts pearl hearts; Queen & Co adhesive pearls; staples
Tools: Spellbinders Nestabilities Classic Circle and Scalloped Circle Large; EK Success Retro Flower punches; Ranger Distress Ink Old Paper
Copics:
E00, E51, E93, E21 (skin, cheeks, lips)
Y28, E53, E50 (hair)
E44, E43, E42, E41 (browns)

Right, that's all from me, but if you hop on over to the Sugar Nellie blog you'll find another sneak peek there from Maria Therese!

Have a great day, thanks for stopping by :D!

Hugs,
Erica

I've used an oldie but a goodie for this week's card, kind of a "Goodbye to Summer" (what Summer was that, I hear some of you muttering ;o)) Granted, it wasn't great, but I also love Autumn and Winter (apart from when I got soaked walking home just now, that wasn't so good...) and the good thing about those seasons is: lots of crafty time!

Simply Sassy Sunday!

Hi there crafty chicks (and dudes!), I'm back :D! I've had such a busy week and I really wanted to craft, but was just sooooo exhausted when I got home of an evening that I just wanted to crash on the couch...how old am I right :-(

I made this label before (see THIS POST for pattern link) but yesterday, while tidying up the bombsite I call my craft room, I came across the pattern for these labels again and just had to make another ;o)

For today's creation I used the utterly adorable

Apple of My Eye

from the latest set of Simply Sassy goodness :D. I love this stamp (I know, I say that about all of them but I cannot tell a lie :-p) because it it so versatile, it can be used "just because", for get well cards, a welcome back or goodbye from school (apples=teacher's pet in my mind, weird isn't it) and for a lot more themes you care to think of :D!

Tag Ingredients:

Stamp: Simply Sassy "Apple of My Eye"
Paper: Elzybells Arts Stamps kraft cardstock; Pion design paper
Embellishments: Creative Cafe rub-on sentiment; Kars adhesive pearls; We R Memory Keepers eyelet; Rayher butterflies; staples; string; charm
Tools: Magnolia Doohickey fence; EK Success Retro Flower punches; Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels Eighteen; Ranger distress ink Weathered Wood; We R Memory Keepers Crop-a-Dile
Copics:
E00, E51, E93, E21 (skin, cheeks, lips)
Y28, E53, E50 (hair)
W7, W5, W3, W2, W1 (greys)

It's perfect crafting weather over here, so that's what I'm going to be doing today ;o). Hope you have a lovely day, thank you for stopping by!

Hugs,
Erica

Simply Sassy Sunday!

Hi everyone, today I have made a flower-less card...I know right, I didn't think that was possible either ;o), but somehow or other flowers just didn't suit. So after a lot of trying I left them off, being somewhat gobsmacked at my own decision!

I got the design for this card from DoCrafts Creativity magazine, I love some of the ideas in there and there's always a free gift which, being a Dutch person, I really appreciate of course :-p. I am one for giving credit where it is due, I really don't like it when people rip off other people's ideas and pass them off as their own. Like when I opened a Dutch craft paper yesterday I saw some of the pages from my Simply Sassy Christmas Tale booklet had been taken almost "verbatim" (even the paper line and the stamps were the same!), and published under someone else's name as her work. It's just not on and it makes me sad...

Anyway, back to my flower-less card:

You can't see the sentiment because, well, I took the picture wrong, but it says "Girly You Rock", which I thought was very appropriate ;o). Isn't this little cutie so adorable! She can be used for so many kinds of cards too!

Card Ingredients:

Stamps: Simply Sassy "Lost in Music"; sentiment by Papertrey Ink
Paper: Bazzill Basics cardstock white; My Mind's Eye design paper Lime Twist: Life of the Party
Embellishments: Zva Creative pearl swirls; Kars adhesive pearls; string; charm
Tools: Spellbinders Nestabilities Classic Circle and Scalloped Circle large
Copics:
E00, E93, E21 (skin, cheeks, lips)
Y28, E53, E50 (hair)
BG15, BG13, BG11 (turquoise bits)

Right, that's it from me for now, hope you have some lovely crafty time set aside for today, see you soon :D!

Hugs,
Erica

Embellishments: Zva Creative pearl swirls; Wild Orchid Crafts flowers; Rayher butterflies
