Express yourself!

Yaye for expression! Yaye for originality! And yaye for Dress Up Marci!

Here is my little monthly contribution to La-La Land Crafts.  I just bought a new set of Prisma color pencils and thought I'd see how I'd do.   I think a little more practice is in order, but I do love the colors.  They were inspired by the DCWV Citrus Stack.   I can't wait to play with her again and see what colors she decides to wear next time!

Don't forget, if you have any creations using Marci or Luka, we want to see them! Add a link to our Customer Gallery and share the smiles!

Wonderful Things . . .

Hello La-La peeps, 1LuvnMama here! Boy, has life been nuts around here! My son had Spring Break last week -- in the midst of trying to get things done during that time, he got sick. Then, my hubby got sick . . . and what do you know? I got sick over the weekend. Our Spring Break wasn't so fun, just trying to recover. Now, my poor baby is sick. Like Kim said, something is going around. Praying everyone stays healthy! :)

On to my post. Here is my card for La-La Land Crafts. Meet Dress Up Marci. She is one of 3 new images that's been released. You can find her {HERE} for purchase.

I could totally picture myself trying to dress up like my mom as a youngster. I used to try on her heels and walk around the house like a grown-up. Oh, the wonderful things in life! I paper pieced her and used my copics to create shadows on her hat and dress.

Here's a close-up.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great weekend!

Just Sitting Here

Hello there!

I have been sick so I haven't been crafting. Actually, I haven't been to my desk since early this week. Yeah, pretty unusual for me. I have been fighting this cold/flu for like almost a month already! I sort of got rid of it, then it came back...got rid of it and yes, it came back again a third time this last weekend! I tell you, there is some weird virus going on out there! Take care, everyone!

I am so glad I have some cards I haven't shared previously! LOL This is one of them. I used Darling Marci on this card. She is available at our online store HERE.

You all know it, Marci and Luka are super popular. If they haven't made their ways to your crafty place yet, please do invite them! You know where to find them - La-La Land!

Don't forget, if you have any creations using Marci or Luka, we want to see them! Add a link to our Customer Gallery and you could be a winner of a wonderful prize!

That's all I have today. Hope everyone have a great weekend!

Luka is hot, hot, HOT!!!

Hi everyone, Jana here! Don't you just love little Luka?? and as a fireman? ADORABLE!!! And you can have him for his very own in digital format - just head over to the La-La Land crafts digi store!

He works so well with this fabulous Basic Grey paper...and the mojo183 sketch. I had blast coloring him, although I see on this up close photo that I didn't get everything blended perfectly.

I think I'll have to send this to a friend of mine who's dh is a firefighter...she can give it to him for a special occasion!

I'm the Mother of Girls

Hi there!  I have another card featuring Dress Up Marci, from the  Playtime Collection.  You can purchase her right now as a digi (and soon in rubber) by clicking on the “DIGI” link above. 

My sister sent me this vellum poem called Mother of Girls and I thought it was perfect with this Marci.  I think I might have to frame this card or add a ribbon hanger for the wall *Ü* 

The poem reads:

SHOES in the HALLWAY
and CLOTHES of the FLOOR;
THe LINE is BACKED up to
the BATHROOM Door.

MAKEUP and HAIRSPRAY
and GADGETS for HAIR;
DRESSES and JEANS and
PINK UNDERWEAR.

All COLORS of JARS to
POLISH your NAILS;
A MOTHER spends HOURS
SHOPPING for SALES.

THINGS that SMELL Good
and LIPSTICK and CURLS;
I'M sure YOU can GUESS,
I'M the MOTHER of GIRLS.

Thanks for stopping by today!  Get creative… Ink Something!

Hugs,

Kristine

Dress Up Marci

Happy Sunday everyone!!

Last week La-La Land Crafts introduced 3 new and fabulous images. A new Marci and a new Luka to add to the Playtime Collection plus, another Girlfriend - introducing Jesalyn! For now they are available in DIGI format only, but in a few short weeks they will be released in RUBBER!! Woo Hoo!

For my share today I used the adorable Dress Up Marci. She's ready for her tea-party but couldn't find the right shoes, hat or accessories to go with her fabulous dress so she's borrowing Mommy's. hehehe...


To purchase any of our cute digital images please click here. Don't forget about our wonderfully deeply etched rubber stamps which can be purchased here.

We'd love to see what you create with any of the darling images so don't forget to upload them to our Customer Gallery.
Have a great weekend everyone!
Hugs,
Leanne
