Donut Tootsie gets a Donut

Hello PND friends!  Shanna here today to showcase one of Paper Nest Doll's newest lines of dolls.  TOOTSIE dolls!  I am love with these adorably whimsical little dolls!  I chose to use Tia with Donut Tootsie today to go with a donut shaped card!  It was so much fun to put all together, my youngest kiddo even picked it up off my desk and smelled it to see if it was real! LOL!!  I have more info on my blog on how I put together this cutie if you are interested!  You can find that here.

I hope you LOVE the new dolls as much as I do!  Let me know below what you think :)

The Digi Stamp for this adorable image is available NOW right here!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hello PND friends!  Thanks for stopping by!  Today I am sharing a card made with the adorably cute Letters to the North Pole image (digi // rubber)  I am sooooo ready for fall and winter to be here!  I might live in California, but I LOVE cooler weather! (Weird combo I know).  

It may still be triple digits here at home, but at least I can craft *cooler weather*!

Let me know what season YOU favor most...does your crafting style relate it?  

Until next time,

Summertime Card with Lemon Ellie

Hello PND friends!!  Shanna here today showing a fun Summertime card featuring the adorable stamp called Lemon Ellie.  I colored her with my Chameleon colored pencils and had fun layering her with a distress inked lemon branch as well.  

I live in California, where Summer is on full blast right now. So I love a good glass of lemonade and that is what this doll makes me think of!  With that said.... I am so ready for the cooler temperatures of fall!!  How is the weather where you are inspiring your creations??

HAIR: C5 C3 C1 E0000

I used the white gel pen to create the sparkle in my hair and on the unicorn

to compose my card I glued, with a thickness, FAIRY EMMA WITH UNICORN on a piece of acetate and a stickers. Always with a thickness I glued the acetate with FAIRY EMMA WITH UNICORN on Patterned Magnolia paper, I inserted some Nuvo pailettes - Pure Sheen 4 Pack - Golden Years Glitter - 280n

PND Family Portrait

Hello Everyone!!  Shanna here, and today is my first official post as a Paper Nest Dolls design team member!!  I am very honored and excited to be here!  I had a lot of fun with my card this month, and thought I would use it as an introduction of the Paper Nest Dolls!!  I layered the digi stamps in my silhouette studio, using a trace feature to help with the masking and created a family portrait!  I opted not to add a sentiment to keep the focus on the dolls. They are SO stinking cute!  So without further ado....Meet the dolls!!

From left to right we have Daisy Emma , Boy Scout Owen, Flower Bouquet Avery, Amara with Balloon, and Scooter Ellie.  Don't you just love them all??  I colored them with my Chameleon Color Tone pens and Chameleon pencils for some added depth...mixing two different coloring mediums is a lot of fun!  

Which doll character are you partial too?? Or can you even pick just ONE?  

I hope you enjoyed my project today!  See you soon!!

Avery with Coffee

Hello everyone!

Designer Noelle with you to share my next inspiration for The Paper Nest Dolls Challenge! I've used "Avery with Coffee" on my project today, which is also available in digi. I hope that you like it!

I colored the image with my copics as usual. I layered her on some pretty designer cardstock from my stash using glue dots. I distressed the edges of the papers and added some pom pom lace trim. Lastly, I added a sentiment from another set to finish off the card.

Thank you for joining us here on the blog! I hope to see many of your creations entered into our challenge. For more details and photos of my project, please check out my blog. Don't forget to check out all the images that Christine has to offer in the shop! Have a great day/night!

Emma with Camera

Hello everyone!

I hope all of you are doing well. I'm getting over a bit of a cold, hopefully I'll feel better in a couple more days. Anyway, I'm here to share with you some inspiration for this month's challenge. For today's project, I used "Emma with Camera". I hope that you like what I've created with her.

I colored the image with my copic markers as usual and had some with my Nuvo Glitter Drops around the image. The die, ink (black soot from Ranger Ink), enamel dots, and pretty patterned paper are all from my stash.

I hope that I have inspired you to enter your own creations into this month's "Anything Goes" challenge over on the Challenge Blog! I look forward to seeing your creations. Feel free to leave some comments if you like. You can also see my post over on The Paper Nest Dolls Challenge Blog. Have a great day!

Frankie

Hello everyone!

I hope you're staying safe away from hurricanes, floods and fires! It's really been a weird year for weather this year! Christine is trying to recover from the destruction from the storm, so you'll have to contact her to purchase if you'd like to purchase the rubber stamp. Luckily, it's still just sunny where I'm at in Oregon but the nice weather is coming to an end unfortunately. Anyway, I'm here to share with you my next creation! I've used the new image "Frankie" for my card to get you inspired to start working on some Halloween crafts if that's your sort of thing. I don't typically make many Halloween creations because I don't give out many cards for it, but just couldn't pass up the opportunity to color up this cutie! I hope you love her as much as I do!

I played around with some different color combos with my copic markers on this one. She was fun to color up! The patterned paper I used is by Doodlebug Design, as well as the enamel dots. Lastly, I added a die cut with a die from my stash.

Thank you for stopping by! Feel free to leave some comments and check out my blog for more details and photos. Have a great day!
