called SKINNY MINNIE is SWEET

She is a fun and versatile stamp that comes with 4 SWEET sentiments.

I made this card SWEET and a little FUNKY

Designed to Color on facebook is asking to see

different colored hair. I decided that our Skinny Minnie (who is obv stylish and classy)

could also be fun and funky! So... here she is, with her cool new 'do'

Really Reasonable Ribbon -spring colors and ribbon

Next up is a card I created to be more classy and elegant looking

This card features the NEW SkinnyMinnie

and one of the sentiments that came with our Jan Release: She  Loves Lattes

 I had a lot of fun creating this card. All of the paper and ribbon is from my stash. 

I have no idea what kind of paper this is. I know it is at least 5 years old though. 

The lace was RAKed to me and has been in my stash for some time. The

twine is by the twinery: maraschino. I stamped the image with momento tuxedo black

and colored her up with copic, sharpie and prismacolor markers. 

The foil frame is by FOLGERS!!! Yup, you heard me! Folgers :)

Good Morning!!! 

I hope your week has started off with smiles and warm happy feelings. 

I have one last project to share with you for our 

Fresh Brewed Designs Rubber Stamp Release

This tag was created using the new rubber stamp

Beautiful Bride

This tag was super easy to create, but I think it still has mega wow factor. 

Can't you see it on a bridal shower gift or on  your party favors?

I used my nesties to cut out the lacy scalloped circle, the white circle was cut on my cricut. 

The charm was one I have had in my stash for years now. The ribbon is from May Arts I believe. 

Everyone that hops will receive a 30% off code for their next digi order. 

Everyone who purchases the MAY kit will receive a code for 50% off their next digi order.

I created a card using both stamps.

The vellum overlay really helped add to the softness of the card. 

Her dress was made extra sparky thanks to the ever so lovely diamond stickles.

Well, the secret is out!

We are gearing up for the next rubber release and starting things off with a card kit! WAhoooo!
With this new release, we have a FUN offer to share with you.
The first ever FRESH BREWED DESIGNS CARD KIT!
This card kit will totally give away the theme, so the secret is out....
we are hitting the beach!!!
I know that we are all ready for some warm sunshine and lots of fun, so why not get started now!!!
One thing you should know though is that this is not your ordinary card kit!!! This one has FUN strings attached.
What ever do I mean? you ask ... well read more at the Challenge blog HERE. There are only a few available, so you will have to act fast!

Here are a few quick and simple cards I created using this card kit:

All three stamps are included in the accessories stamp set that will be included in the card kit.

This first card was created using the sand castle. I kept this card simple and used a trifold style. The hemp chord ties around the back of the chord and through the flower to keep it held together.Challenge:
Fab 'n' Funky - 1E, C10 - more than one fold
For Your Inspiration Photo

This next card is using the beach bag. I kept this card very simple. the papers are so bright and cheery, I felt anything more would blow you away :) I also used the Eat Sleep Stamp sketch for this card
Challenge:
Etsy Inspired: with this project

My final card was created using the ice cream cone and the sketch at Papercraft Star. I think this one is my favorite. I just love the bright yellow dot paper!
