RILEY1312, Riley's Groovey New Clothes!

 Hello, it's time for another Riley and Company Challenge! Congratulations to Jan Farnworth, the winner of the last challenge! Yep that's right, we're now offering a prize to one lucky player per challenge!

This weeks challenge was brought to us by Riley fan Robin, she's challenged us to Dress Riley - not paper piecing, just drawing lines and making clothes for Riley/Sophie!

As you can see, I didn't read the instructions clearly until just now while typing! LOL oh well I did draw lines to make the clothes! Here's how I did it.
 I stamped Moosestache Riley onto some copy paper. Then I used a pencil to draw on his shirt & bell bottoms!
I used so repositionable tape to keep them still on the dp I wanted and traced around the patterns I made. Make sure to go pack over the lines with a black marker, I used a copic 0.3 liner. This makes them looked like they were stamped.

I also restamped Riley's mustache and cut it out, so it's sitting onto of the top.

I also used the Sweet Sunday Sketch SSSC161.

Want to play along???? here's what you need to do... If you would like to play along with us of course we would love to have you! AND - if you do, you could be in the running to win free rubber ... One lucky person per challenge will win our Logo Riley image which isn't available for purchase. You will also get the chance to display a winner's button on your blog.

Hello, this Monday's Totally Stampalicious Challenge is to celebrate the upcoming Canada Day by using red, white and one other colour on your card or project!

I used the new Clyde Bugs set. I can't remember what this technique is called, I'm sure spotlight must be in the name!lol I stamped Clyde 2 times, punched out the ladybugs with a 5/8" circle punch, coloured them and popped them up.

The card base is black, with a layer of white on the top, stamped with the Distressed Dots bg stamp. The bottom is real red dp.

I used the copics 0.3 liner to make faux stitches.

I coloured the image with copics, adding copic atyou spica in olive to her eyes and silver on her earrings. The music note is from an EK edge punch and the 16 was made with red glimmer paper and the Cuttlebug Olivia die set. I hope she likes it!

TSMONDAY, Let's Get In Shape!

 Hello, can you believe it's Monday again! lol That means time for the Totally Stampalicious Monday Challenge. This weeks challenge is to make a card any shape but the usual square or rectangle!

I used one of the A+ Bears to make a Triple Easel card, I love how this turned out! I coloured the bear with copics and cut him out.

I made the faux basketballs using circle nesties & dusty durango cardstock. I hand drew the black lines with a sharpie, then I embossed them with the tiny bubbles EF and sponged the edges with really rust.
Here's how it looks from the side.

Please join us in our challenge and upload your shaped creation to the Totally Stampalicious Blog!

Make sure to join us Thursday June 14th, 9pm est for the New Release, Blog Hop and Prizes! 

Have a Great Day!

FMS38, Riley Merry Maid!

 Hello, I made this for this weeks Freshly Made Sketch FMS38!

This is the new Merry Maid for Riley and Company. I thought this would make a great card for a friend to give as a thank you. It could be for a maid, or someone who's helped you out while recovering from surgery etc.

I coloured the image with copics. The card base is so saffron with white embosses with a Daisies EF. The dp was from my scrap bin, so I can't remember where it's from!
I had a bit of dp left over, so I finished the inside and stamped just the duster.

Upcoming:
 Monday June 11, Totally Stampalicious Monday Challenge
Tuesday June 12, Riley and Company Tuesday Challenge
Thursday June 14th, Totally Stampalicious Blog Hop and Release, 9pm est.

Have a Great Day!
