I'm a Guest Designer!!!!!




Hey everyone! Did you see???? I'm a guest designer at http://canadiannickelscrapn.blogspot.com/


Nicole is the most fantastic sharing lady I've met on blogland... When i was just a newbie....this past January i came across her blog thinking she was in Sudbury Ontario by her blog name. Turns out she's not but that didn't stop her from helping me when i needed it. I was so new.....how new....you know NEW...i had the most stupid questions but she helped me along and boy am i thankful...I had no idea what i was doing. So she still hasn't stopped, she's invited me to be a guest designer on her blog today. Helping me share the word about my new release stamps sets. And some exciting news about a new artist in blogland who just happens to be my niece.


I have two new stamp sets that I'm super excited about.. Party Time and Christmas Season. They are a variety of words that you can mix and match to create a multitude of sentiments. They can be purchased here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/JUSTWORDZ For this week only i have a special going on for those who would love to own these sets at a great deal. Use coupon code NEWRELEASE and you will save 15% off the ticket price.





Here is the most exciting part of this post....I'm teaming up with my niece Sheryl Brown and am i glad i pushed her into doing some digi's for all my blogger friends...Look how amazingly cute this is...She's just starting out so she only has a few available but she's adding new images frequently. She even has some precoloured for those who don't color but want a super cute image.. papers and clip art as well...here is her link to her store...




And her Facebook page, to share all your creations made with her images. https://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/pages/Redonkulous-Designs/244687632244969



Oh i so love this image...colored with promarkers, JUSTWORDZ Christmas Season stamp set. Added a charm and some trendy twine to finish it off.


Thank you for dropping by and please join me on Friday to see our first posting with the new stamps and the new DT. I will have prizes and a challenge going on so don't miss it...



Thank YOU Nicole, you are the BEST!!!.

Last but not least is a designer you are familiar with. My blogging BFF who has been the most help over the last few months. Helping me throughout my large learning curve in blogland. Always having a listening ear to my woes....I just love what she creates with her cricut and i can tell you she has the best ways to use up all your little scraps. She even has her wedding coming up and she still agreed to come back, now that's a friend. Check out her personal blog if you missed any of her fabulous creations and leave some love. A huge warm welcome back to:


TARA


I’m back!!! I am so excited to be back for a second term on this fabulous design team. I just love playing with the Justwordz Everyday Sentiments stamp sets and was thrilled when Kim said she was designing two more sets! I can’t wait to ink them up! In case you don’t already know me my name is Tara and I live in beautiful Nova Scotia, Canada. I am a substitute teacher, a private tutor and a crafter for as long as I can remember. I was always the kid on the block covered in glitter! I started scrapbooking when I was a teenager working at a summer camp but the obsession didn’t really take hold until I got my Cricut a couple years ago! I have also over the last year started working with digital stamps and well…another obsession has developed lol. Over the last couple of years I have not been doing a lot of scrapbooking and mostly card making. The only problem now is I hate to give all my creations away lol. Stop by and visit my blog I would love to hear from you and check out yours too! Thanks Kim for another round!


Here is just a few of her recent creations..







Thank you all for dropping in and saying hi in welcoming my new team. We will have a fantastic time creating inspiration for you all each Friday. I hope you visit soon as we will be having a kick off blog hop on the 4th of November. Great prizes to be had and fun creations to see. You won't want to miss it. Take care all!!!

Here we are again to announce another fabulous creative lady. I recently met her at Kimmie's Kraft Day a couple weeks ago...I was amazed at how she can put a card together. And boy oh boy can she work the pearl pen like no one I've seen before. Her style is perfect to showcase some digital stamps and my sentiments. Visit her personal blog to see what i mean. Leave some love and give a big welcome to:




Samantha





My name is Samantha and I live in Ontario, Canada with my ever-supportive husband of 7 years and our kitty, 'Domi' (named after my hubs fave winger, Tie Domi). I am an education administrative assistant by day, a card maker by night!
I started card making 5 years ago, simply by mistake! My husband needed a card for one of his co-workers and I just thought it would be so neat to create my own... and that's when I became hooked and have not looked back since!
You can find me and my projects at Hooliewood Creations.

I adore the shabby-chic vintage look (unfortunately I cannot seem to create that look despite trying!) and simple and elegant designs. I love to use bling, paper-piecing and using digi or acrylic/rubber stamps in my projects.
I also enjoy watching crafty videos to learn new and different techniques. Some crafty tools I cannot live without: Liquid pearls, Cuttlebug, Stamps, Copic blending paper and my Copic markers!

I am thrilled to be a part of the JustWordz.ca Design Team and am looking forward to seeing all the fabulous creations this term!





Here are just a few of her fabulous designs...

Inking up my new Kimmie stamps!!!



Hey all, i finally felt good enough to finally ink up a stamp. This is my newest purchase that i got at Kimmies Kraft Day not too long ago. And are you impressed i paper pieced as well which i learned during that day too. I didn't put a sentiment on this one as i can use it for a variety of occasions. Colored with promarkers, added some die cuts and viola....all done using a simple easy sketch supplied by one of kimmies girls...Pam. Hope you like.

Challenges I'm entering are:

LEAH ANN





About me: Hello, My name is Leah Ann and I live in Indiana. I am married to my wonderful husband Don and between the two of us we have 5 children, and 12 grandchildren. Our grand babies range from ages 2 to 16. I'm a country girl, although I live in town now. I love animals, and have had every farm animal you can possible think of! My hubby is a retired Firefighter/Paramedic and I am retired as a Stay At Home Mom.
I'm known as The Hoosier Stamper to most. I have been crafting since I was 9 years old. My favorite craft of course is Stamping. I started stamping about 7 years ago, and I'm now addicted! I taught stamping classes at a little shop for a while and it was so much fun. Over the years I have done several craft shows at our local schools. I made country bunnies, oh! that tells my age :O) and many different hand sewn items. I love to crochet doilies and afghans, and I've made many dolls over the years.
I love making Easel cards, and I enjoy making them the most right now. I also love stamping on candles. Most images I use are cute images. I love angels, Native American Indian/Southwest, and also Asian. Of course there are many others I like too, it would take all day to name them.
I am here to help in anyway I can, and to learn from all of you! Hugs! Leah Ann
