Doodle This- Blinged Out
What a week I had last week! Busy, busy. I never posted except for you all to meet Tinker. I promised some stamping and that never happened. Nothing eventful came up, but I just seemed to have a lot going on- KWIM?
On Friday, I went to the scrap store in Hershey. They had some awesome Autumn Leaves stuff! I got my very first set of clear stamps! This is the set I got. So cute! I inked it a little yesterday but nothing that great came of it. I also got a few sheet of AL paper. I made two cards. I love the colors- very summer.

I am still having trouble using the Doodle sets from SU!. They are just hard to use IMO. This first card uses the AL paper as the base. I used the Watercolor crayons to color the doodles which I stamped with Black Staz On on Shimmer White. I popped up the flower for some dimension and covered it in Stardust Stickles. The layer is Pumpkin Pie stamped with Versamagic in Cloud White with the Linen BG. The sentiment by A Muse is also stamped in the white.
I added some Heidi Swapp bling to the swirls because they just seemed to need a little something. I really like using this type of bling because they are on a strip and you can use several at once or one at a time. You get so many one one card! The ribbon is May Arts and is from a Texas Jody Lynn ribbon share.
A lot of the same elements went into this card too. The BG stamp on this is the Aida Cloth- which if you don’t have you really should! It’s a really great and versatile stamp. I dotted the flowers with Fruit Punch Stickles. The ribbon is sheer May Arts Organdy. Queen and Co. brads completed the look.
I hope everyone is having a great weekend. We are being poured on here- possible flooding. Yuck! Where is that nice spring weather??? I think that it is going to be a chillin’ like a villian kind of day!
Keepin’ it real *wink*,
Andee
