Marci's all Sugar and Spice!

Hi everyone, Jana here! Today I got to use the new Sugar and Spice Marci! Isn't she adorable?? You can get her digi image right now, and she'll be available very soon in rubber as well! We all know cupcakes are totally hot, and so is retro. So here I've combined the two by coloring this sweet little thing B&W. Actually...I'll be honest. I had to go to the doctor's earlier this week and it's so easy to just toss 4 markers into my bag with some images, instead of thinking of ALL the colors I might want. So watch for more B&W to come!! ;-)

I used this fabulous new Cosmo Cricket Circa 1950's paper that Irina gave me recently - isn't it fabulous?? and for the floor, I used some wood sheets from Su! To create a floor. I used a sentiment from an MFT set and made it into a little banner coming out from a felt heart.

If you haven't seen all the adorable new Valentine images be sure to go check them out...and if you're a rubber addict (like me!) then very soon you'll have that too!!! :-D Have a wonderful Thursday everyone!

Hi there LaLa friends!  I'm having so much fun creating with these new stamps from the Valentine's Collection.  I wanted to show you that you can easily use them for other ocassions besides Valentine's Day though.  She can be bakin' up some lovin' from her oven... for a BIRTHDAY, or just to give a FRIEND, or to her special HUNNY!  =)  There's just somethin' about blue and yellow that says kitchen to me so those are the colors I used.  Wouldn't she be super cute on the outside of a li'l cupcake box?  (hint, hint!)  LOL.

Best Wishes for 2011 from Darling Marci

Hi everyone - GDT Debbie here on the first day of 2011 - wow! I'm sure you've met this gorgeous new image from La-La Land Crafts here before, but in case you missed it her name is Darling Marci. She is the first seated Marci and I just LOVE her. Marci and I would like to wish all of you out there in blogland all the very best for 2011 - I hope it's a great year!

I used the gorgeous Basic Grey Kioshi paper pad and paper pieced Marci's dress. The layout is last week's Friday Sketchers sketch #134, and even though I'm too late for the challenge I felt the sketch was too fabulous NOT to use! Her cute little party shoes are all glittered up for New Year's.

You can buy Marci and Luka as a digis here on the blog or get them as  a rubber stamp in the store

Remember if you create something with any La-La stamps or digis, please share with us in the customer gallery! Once a month we have a Customer Appreciation Day and one of you will win a prize!

And don't forget our HUGE

END OF YEAR SALE

- check out the details HERE.
