Cupcakes Anyone??

Hello fellow In Style Stamps lovers! Today's card is inspired by this amazing cupcake image!

I tossed around many ideas and ultimately decided my card would be inspired by the gorgeous colors in the image. I chose "Tatiana", she is currently available on the In Style Stamps website.

Tatiana is colored using Copic Markers. Hair Y00, Y11 & Y21, Skin E00 & E11, Shorts and Shirt RV02,  RV04 & RV06, Sweat Bands and Socks V12 & V17, Shoes and Racket YG01 & YG25 and finally the Tennis Ball Y13 & Y19.

 ISS will pick one lucky winner to receive an In Style Stamps Goodie Bag with a value of $25!

This months Blog Hop theme is "End of Summer". I know my card doesn't seem to be very summery, but as soon as I saw the Hop theme and this amazing paper it brought back fun childhood memories. At the end of summer vacation, just about every year we would go see the Ringling Brothers Circus!

So hopefully my project makes sense with the theme now. 

For my card I colored "Jax" using Copic markers E13, E15 & E17 for his hair, E30 & E31 for his skin, BG93, BG96 & BG99 were used for his shirt, E55 & Y28 on the shorts and

his shoes are done using BG93 & BG96.

Thanks again for stopping by! Your next stop on the hop is Cyndi's Blog.

ISS August Color Challenge

Taylor picked a georgous color combo the I would have never thought of myself.

Dark green, turqouise, lime amd naturals white are the colors I took from it.

Here is the image that inspired the color challenge.

For my sample I used Sophie. She can be found on the In Style Stamps website. I made a Post It note mini motebook using my bind it all and a couple of chipboard coasters.

Sophie was colored using Copic Marker color. Her swim suit is B01, B04 & B06, Skin E50 & E11, Snorkel and Flippers RV13 & RV19 and finally her Hair E30, E31 & E33.  I tied some dark green, white and navy blue ribbon on the coil binding and popped up Sophie for a bit of dimension.  Take a trip on over to the ISS blog for more peaks at the DT's color chellenge samples.

Inspiration In Style

This weeks In Style Stamps inspiration challenge picture gives you a huge amount of options! As you can see from the image there are so many sketches that you could be inspired to use on your project. As soon as I saw the image the trim work stood out to me immediately!

I used In Style Stamps image Kristina. She is just so adorable riding her bike. Kristina was colored using Copic markers and layered using Nestibilities. I added some buttons for a bit of embelishment.

Kristina is available digitally on the In Style Stamps website.

Next week is release week so be sure to check out the ISS blog in addition to the DT's blogs for amazing samples of the images that will be released!

In Style Stamps August Sketch Challenge

What a great sketch, wait, there's a catch...It must also be an easel card! I chose ISS image Hanna, when I first saw how adorable she was I knew she would be the perfect baby card! Hanna was colored using Copic markers, layered using Nestibilities. Cardstock is DCWV, PTI and SU!. A few brads and Primas and all finished. I must admit this was my first try at an easel card, tell me what you think. Hanna will be available after the August release around the 20th.
