Zingy!

Hi all, Mary J here!  Pinch, punch, it's the first day of the month - I can't believe it's March already!  But hey, you're not here to listen to my waffle, so here's my card for today using more delicious Quixotic Paperie goodies!!

You just gotta love those Wee Stamps for Whimsy Stamp!  This is Sylvia Zet's Wee Stamps Sweet Blossom matched up with Echo Park Sweet Summertime papers (currently 25% off!).  For the border I used my Sew Easy Tool with the Scallop Head and yellow floss.

For embellishment I used 4mm flat backed pearls and created some subtle bling with my Viva Decor Glitter Liner pen on the image and smeared on Make It Crafty Butterfly and Leaves lasercut chipboard.

Et voila!  A sweetie in the making!  And there is still plenty of time to join in with this month's Quixotic Inspirations sketch for a chance to win a £15 voucher - just link up your gorgossity here!

That's it from me today - see you next Thursday but don't forget to check out all the new goodies before you go!

Merry Elf

Happy Thursday everyone!  It's been a loooooong week - thank goodness (and I really mean it this week!) it's Friday tomorrow!  Anyhoo, Mary J here with a funky Christmas card using another one of those wonderful elves from the Make It Crafty Elf Collection...

I used Bazzill Basics Smoothie Kraft cardstock with Echo Park papers and stickers from the Everybody Loves Christmas kit collection.  You can't see it very well (but it looks fab in real life!) but I my Sew Easy Tool with the Cross Piercer Head.  For embellishing I used that gorgeous Memory Box Frosty Border die again.  It's out of stock as I write this, but don't worry Elaine is getting more stock in!  Just email her here and she'll put one by for you (she's nice like that!). 

Right, I gotta go to bed now (writing this on Wednesday night, scheduled for Thursday morning!) as I have another LOOOONG day ahead of me!  Catch ya later!

Taking it slowly...

Well, not me personally - this week has flown by, it's been manic!!  Anyhoo, Mary J here and the title of my post refers to this little cutie using lots of lovely Quixotic Paperie stash! 

 

 

Isn't he a sweetie?  This is one of the new Emerald Faeries called Boo & Snookie (aren't they the best names ever?!!).  I used my Sew Easy Tool with the Zig Zag Piercer Head and finished it off with flowers using the Marianne D creatables Chinese Rose dies and beads.  Quixotic Paperie has run out of the brown felt ribbon, but you can buy it in other colours here.

I used the Prima Madelaine paper that is unfortunately out of stock now, but there are a host of gorgeous Prima pads in including the latest arrivals which came today here!

Before I go, here is a list of my most fave of the newly arrived goodies!

Mary J here for a quick post on this week's faves at Quixotic Paperie - EMERALD FAERIES! I am in luuuuurve these gorgeous stamps!  Here's what I made using Ebony....

 

 

How beautiful is this stamp?!!  I matched her up with papers from Cosmo Cricket's Material Girl, embellished with rolled flowers with pearl bead centres and that luscious Prima lace! To add some more interest, I used my Sew Easy Stitcher Tool with the Sew Easy Burst Piercer Head - I love it!  The sentiment is from Whimsy's Ticket Sentiment Set and Shapeology Ticket die.  I've left the inside blank for my own personal message (hopefully it will say "thank you for ALL my birthday presents on 25 August" (you get the hint, right?!!).

Okay, that is it from me today!  Back soon with another EMERALD FAERIES beauty!

 

Geeky love

Happy mid-week all!  Mary J here with a card using the Geeky Love stamp by Make It Crafty...

 

 

Isn't it a fun image?!  I just love it!  I matched it up with papers from the My Minds Eye Lime Twist Happy Go Lucky paper pad and used my Sew Easy Tool with the straight head to stop it from being too plain.

Before I go, just to let you know that there are many fabulous newbies in the store!  I've just gotta hide my credit card....

No Matter How Small!

Good Morning Kim here today,

I am so pleased with how this turned out it must have been one of the quickest cards to make and loving all the colours from these Crate papers. I totally adore Horton hears a who film...  which is the reason for buying this fantastic Artistic Outpost - Think & Wonder stamp set. Featuring quotes from Dr. Seuss... A person's a person, no matter how small. Just love it!!! The Pink Paislee - Artisan Elements - Swirls I have coloured using Tim Holtz Distress Stain - Weathered Wood, I blasted it with my heat gun and it dried on very nicely!

The faux Stitching was created using the WRMK sew easy and a black fine liner for the stitches. Now I'm admiring the new sew easy heads available.... yum and check out the
