Good morning crafty friends and welcome to release day at
SCACD!! Susana is releasing two collections of exclusive SCACD stamps, "
Fairylicious" by Victoria Case and "
The New Adventures of Loli and Poppy" by Sylvia Zet! The stamps in both collections are absolutely gorgeous and I know many, if not all, will be making their way onto your wish list. :)
To celebrate today's release, we are having a blog hop! If you arrived here after visiting with one of our lovely guests,
Wendy, then you are right on track. If not, just pop on over to the beginning of the hop at
Danni's blog where all the fun begins.
I have two cards to share with you today. Up first is a card featuring one of the stamps from "
The New Adventures of Loli and Poppy". This pretty little hippy-chick is "
Give Peace a Chance". I absolutely adore her! The papers on this card are from My Mind's Eye. For finishing touches, I added a few pearls and a flourish created with my
Memory Box Elegant Scrollwork Die...I'm just a wee bit fond of my Memory Box Dies! These dies tend to fly off the SCACD shelves, so make sure to grab your favourites as soon as you see them in the store...you can find them all
HERE.
Give Peace a Chance was stamped on Neenah with
Memento Tuxedo Black ink. She was predominantly coloured with
Copics. The exception would be her blouse for which I used three ShinHan markers.
Skin: E000, E00, E11, R02 Hair: E50, E31, E33, E37, E59 Jeans: BG0000, B32, B34, B37, B39, BV29, C5 Blouse: ShinHan Markers R11, R13 and BR94 Hair flower: R30, R32, R35, R37, R89 Large Flower: BV31, BV23, C00, C3, C5, colourless blender Flower Centres: E50, Y21, Y26, E13, E17, E18 Stem: YG00, YG03, G85, G99
My second card features one of the stamps from "
Fairylicious". These stamps have such a whimsical charm and are so much fun to create with. This is "
Fairy Good Hair Day". I pulled out some older My Mind's Eye paper for this one. Although Susana does not have this particular pad in stock anymore, she has a fantastic selection of 6x6 paper pads
HERE. The cute little chipboard dragonflies are
Make It Crafty Chipboard. They were coloured with Copics and then coated with a
Viva Decor Magic Pearl Pen. The little vine in the corner was created by using the "
Savannah Border" Memory Box Die. I just snipped it apart and rearranged the pieces to fit in the corner. I tied a double bow with the help of my
Bow Easy and centred it with a rhinestone.
Fairy Good Hair Day was also stamped on Neenah with
Memento Ink and coloured with
Copics. I used some
Startdust Stickles on the fairy wings and on the detail work on the mantis. Unfortunately I was a little heavy handed with the Stickles and it ended up concealing some of the pretty design. I sponged in the sky with Memento Summer Sky. The image was cut out and matted with
Spellbinders Labels 8.
(Sorry...I'll try to pop on later to update my post with a Copic colour list for this image)

Fairylicious" and "
New Adventures of Loli and Poppy" stamps are available to purchase exclusively at
