SOG April Release Review

Kristy from Some Odd Girl is bringing back retired stamps by turning them into digits! YAY! May they live on forever and ever.  This month, a whole slew of awesomeness was brought back, you can check them all out HERE.


I created with this darling fella, Bouquet Tobie.
I used the Cameo Silhouette to write the sentiment... oops, trial and error, I double cut it and really didn't need too.. which is why it looks a little sloppy.  Hopefully whomever receives it will look past that oopsie. hehe

Have a gorgeous weekend friends!
XOXO

Aunt Kitty & Me



A cute little layout using Clear Scraps XL Dazed acrylic sheet.

Here it is against a white background.




I used papers from one of my Hip Kits too. :)
I couldn't tell you which one, as I haven't been able to open them as soon as they come in lately.
XOXO

Coloring contest with K&C & SOG!!

Hi friends!
Its a perfectly fun day to share my take on coloring up Gardening Mae from Some Odd Girl. Some Odd Girl and Kit & Clowder have teamed up for a fun coloring challenge. You can check that out here.

I printed out Gardening Mae onto a 7 x 10 watercolor paper. I painted her with the watercolors. It was my first time doing this so I thought it would be easier at a much larger size.
I was right, because there is a learning curve to using any new medium.

I added in some prismacolor pencils atop the watercolors to add in more definition and to correct some rough spots in my watercolor. lol

Once I had it all finished, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with such a large painting. I decided to frame it and treat it similar to a mixed media canvas. Some of the embellishments and stamping is right on the background with Mae, and others are placed on the frame of the glass.

So, I hope you join us for the coloring challenge. You can get Gardening Mae for a low low price, but you have to get the code from Alyce at Kit & Clowder. Would love to see you join the challenge!

XOXO
Leah

Corner Ornate Mixer layout

My last project using the April Creating Made Easy kit from Clear Scraps.


I go into detail about the cool Corner Ornate Mixer included in the kit on the CME blog here.

So much fun. I just love all the vertical layers.

The chipboard rolling pin was perfect for part of the title with the included alphabets.
Have a perfectly yummy Monday, friends!

XOXO
Leah

New SOG Monthly challenge

The challenge this month for Some Odd Girl is as always Anything Goes, and the twist is Nothing Square.


I created this cute little guitar card in my Silhouette and colored up Guitarist Tia using my Prismacolor Pencils. I kept it simple as to focus on Tia and the cute little guitar shape.

Hope your weekend is a blast and nobody pulls any pranks on you! :)
