Lil Miss Muffin Rio, S&S 12 Days of Christmas, and a New DICC

Hello! Did you enjoy yesterday’s Bombshell Hump Day Hop? I sure did! Today I have 2 projects to share with you. I have the latest preview from Simply Betty Stamps first. But also, there is a new Desert Islands Crafters Challenge plus, with it being December 1st, it marks the first day of the Smeared & Smudged 12 Days of Christmas! As I mentioned above, today is another preview day for SBS. This is Little Muffin Rio. And she’s yet another fabulous image from the Teen Scene Kitchen Fun collection. Mmmm….don’t you want a muffin now? I sure do! I used my watercolor markers yet again, and I also used that super rad Crafter’s Workshop stencil in the corners of the white cardstock. Used a mess of scrap paper, and a sentiment from Just Rite. I hope you are as excited about this collection as I am! Now, on to the latest DICC, which I combined with Day 1 of the S&S 12 Days of Christmas. Here’s the DICC Itinerary. As always, you need to use at least 3 of the items listed. Beth Ranney-Thomas’ Itinerary 1) Aluminum Foil
2) Glue Used in a non-traditional way
3) Paint {Acrylic or Watercolors}
4) Embossing
5) Beads
6) Use Green & Blue
7) Christmas Theme
8) More the 5 layers{ base = 1 layer}
9) Not A Card
10) Glitter I had a totally rad project in mind for this one (the aluminum foil really inspired me! But I just didn’t want to have 3 projects posted in one day…so I had to nix the idea. But, I will say that this card is very pretty in person. I used #’s 4, 6, 7, and 10 from the Itinerary. This is not a very good photo. And unfortunately…it’s the only one I have. See, this card was a custom order for Phoenix’s former teacher. And I could have sworn that I took several pics of it, but damned if I know what file they’re in. And of course, she already has the cards, so I can’t take more pictures. You’ll have to believe me when I say that the tree is embossed with a beautiful clear and holographic glitter. When the light hits it, it really looks like the tree is lit up. So, you ghave a lot of hopping to do today! Be sure to visit the SBS Blog to see more with sweet, Lil Miss Muffin Rio. Then hit DICC for more inspiration. Lastly, there are the S&S Jolly Bloggers! They are all listed in my side bar. One more thing…I want to wish my girl Kelli a super-duper Happy Birthday! We all lurve the hell outta you here! Mwah! Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!
