Its that time again.....

Yes it's that time again....time for a new challenge at Southern Girls.  This time its all about stripes.  Single colour, multicolour or monochrome.  The choice is endless.  All the details are on the blog and we have 2 wonderful sponsors.

My card uses a very cute image called Cow in a Dress from A Day for Daisies.  I gave her little striped socks to go with her very pretty dress.

Have a happy day and come join the challenge

Chocolate

I had some fun with these chocolate dies.  I have to agree with that sentiment.  Life is short eat chocolate first.  Not a bad mantra to live by really.

The actual chocolate bar is cut down in size as the die cuts a card panel.  I simply turned it into a chocolate bar which was easy to do and makes this die very versatile. I think you could even use it as bricks.  The chocolate bar is popped up on foam adding some dimension with the Chocolate die placed on top.

These dies and more are available in the Frantic Stamper store now.

Go eat some chocolate!!!

Retro Coffee Set from Frantic Stamper

I do like retro and this Retro coffee set is no exception.  I used retro colours to create this little coffee scene.  Its clean and simple which again suits the retro style.  The Kraft strip is detailed using the new Stitched Sweet Swirls card panel.  Perfect for adding some detail to plain card stock, I can see this being used a lot.  I'm guessing the sentiment is very true. I bet many a great idea did in fact start with coffee.

This Frantic Stamper release is full of lots of coffee and chocolate themed products and is available in store now.

See you soon

Friends are Forever

Todays post features another new release from Kindacute by Patricia.  Love this little elephant and mouse.  They look like they are deep in conversation and I bet its all about their favourite ice cream flavour which obviously is strawberry.

Friends forever just seemed to suit this image so well.

See you soon

Thank you

Time for a new release at Kindacute by Patricia.  Such a sweet little image.

She is coloured in pencil and I added the grass to the bottom.  I thought the sentiment Thank you was appropriate for this image but you could use anything you likes.  This and the other new digital releases will be available on Friday.  Go take a peak, I'm sure you'll find something you like.

Come back soon

Never Fear the Coffee is near

What a great sentiment Never Fear the Coffee is near.  Boy do I sometimes really relate to that.  The June release at Frantic Stamper is all about Chocolate and Coffee.  Two of mine and I'm sure your favourite things.

This card features the new Coffee to Go and Macarons die sets with the coffee stamp set.  The little cup and saucer is from the stamp set and I used it to create my background.  The sentiment is from the same set.

I die cut several macarons in traditional pastel shades to stack around the coffee cup.  Coffee and macarons are the perfect pairing.

For these and more new dies and stamps visit the Frantic Stamper store.  You'll not be disappointed.

Thanks for popping in today
