Shirley's 2 Girls....and a Challenge!!!


I have been asked to join yet another amazing stamp company!! This one is BRAND new and you may not have even heard of it yet....it's called Shirley's 2 Girls and we are the Ladies With Attitude!!! Oh yes, you knew I'd fit right in didn't you??? Hehe!

There are some amazing women on the DT and you can find links to their blogs on my sidebar there. Go have a look-see!! Also you can go straight to their website and have a boo at their wonderful, whimsical art stamps that are made of the best quality non-yellowing photopolmer....and I've used them and this stuff is thick and heavy and it's definitely not going to rip either!!

Here are a couple of cards that I have made using these sassy new stamps!! The first one is using Cat in Grass and I think he looks like he's about to get into trouble, don't you?? I used Kraft cardstock for the card base (I'm lovin' using that stuff lately) and a strip of some of my favourite MME patterned paper....love the polka dots.




I stamped the image twice, coloured them and cut just the front part of the cat out of one of the images. I pop dotted it onto the whole image and then matted it on Pretty in Pink cardstock. I added a piece of Soft Sky, pop dotted the main layer and added some yummy pink satin ribbon from American Crafts. The sentiment is stamped directly on the card base.




The second card is made using the Break and Mend stamp which I just love!! I used Kraft base again and used some Crate Paper dp along with some Groovy Guava cardstock and some delicious ribbon that I picked up at Michael's eons ago! I coloured the image with Copics (again), matted it on Groovy Guava, pop dotted it and added a big green button with some hemp twine. I just love that sentiment. I really feel that if we don't start paying attention to our world and what is going on around us, pretty soon we won't be able to fix what has happened to it!!




And on THAT note, Shirley's 2 Girls has an awesome challenge for you this week!!! It's a GREEN challenge and they have a great little template for you to download, so head on over to the blog and get all the details (including what you could WIN)!!!

Well, I hope you like my first S2Gs offerings...I really had fun playing with them!!

I love that you used Craft paper. I always have a ton of that laying around but I never can seem to bring myself to incorporate it.
These cards turned out great and using the craft paper I think really brought out the coloring you did. Great Job.
