Anya Treats!!

Hi everyone!!  It has been a while since I played at Anyone for Anya!  Their new challenge is a photo inspiration.  Check it out HERE!  I love the photo of the rainbow colored cake!  So pretty!  So I had to use my new Anya Treats for this challenge.

I tried to use the colors of the cake as my inspiration and colored Anya similarly.  I think half way I didn't know if i wanted it to be a bright rainbow or more pastel-y rainbow.  But I guess pastel-y won.

If the card looks familiar, it was in TGF's August newsletter.  Are you signed up for TGF's newsletter?  If not, go and sign up!  There's even a coupon!  And also check out TGF's forum on Splitcoaststampers and join in cause there will be prizes!!

BIG Anyas!

Hi! I was a bit excited about receiving my 3 new BIG Anyas from TGF's one day birthday release.  I just got them in the mail yesterday (Saturday).  That is super fast shipping considering I ordered them late Tuesday night.  Being excited, I made a quick card with my favorite one, Anya Lifts.  I love her big hair and the balloons!

I thought I was gonna use a sketch that I found online until I cut her out and realized, wow, she's BIG!  I hardly ever use my big block but good think I had one!  Then I just went real simple since it was late already.  I think I was running out of ink in one of my Copics that I use for skin tone but didn't really notice it til a bit later.  And my sentiment is a little crooked.  It kind of bugs me but I'll let that go.  Just wanted to get her stamped and colored.  Oh, and I added some Stickles dots to her balloons.

Just a quick post today.  Thanks for reading!

Birthday card

Hello, I actually have another card...it was actually a card I made without any occasion or person in mind, which is a little unusual for me since I'm usually cramming at the last minute to send things out!  It was nice to have some down time over spring break.  Anyhow, it also conveniently happens to be a Free for All challenge at Anyone for Anya this week.

So I jumped on the big Anya bandwagon.  Also jumped on the copic bandwagon, except for the hair which is black colored pencil.  I kind of like that the limbs were thin and the clothes were mostly hidden by the box.  It seemed like a good beginner thing to start with coloring a box.  Patterned paper is from Echo Park's Happy Days.  Cut the one border with the perfect layers ruler.  Border punch was Fiskars.  Hmm, not much else I can add about this card.  Maybe it could have used a sentiment somewhere near the bottom, but I didn't look too hard for a small birthday sentiment.  Have a good day!
