Little Miss Muffet & Simply B Stamps - Tea Party Release

Good morning!  Happy Thursday!  The day we've all been waiting for has finally arrived!  Today is the start of a new "anything goes" challenge at Little Miss Muffet Stamps, but it's also Day 1 of the huge combined release with Simply B Stamps!  This is going to be an exciting few days, trust me!  This release is so huge and we have so much to share, it's been spread out over 3 days of fun!  There will be lots to see and do at both company blogs and both DTs, as well as some special guests, are participating.  You won't want to miss a single thing!  Of course, there will be prizes, so you'll want to check out both blogs every day for the lists of events and prizes!  You can see all the new images at the SBS New Items and the LMMS What's New sections.

Day 1 starts with a mega blog hop to kick off the joint Tea Party Release from Simply B Stamps and Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  The hop starts at the Simply B Stamps blog.  If you arrived here from there, you are in the right spot.  If not, definitely head over to the SBS blog and hop from there so you don't miss a thing!

Here is my card for the hop:


My card base and mats are SU Night of Navy and the patterned papers are from the Little Yellow Bicycle Just Because 6x6 pad.  I did a bit of machine stitching around the sketch panels.  I created a cute background scene by merging lots of images from the new Tea Party Combo set from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  I printed the merged image on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored it all with my Copics.  I added some Stickles and Glossy Accents here and there for some added sparkle and shine.  My fun main image is Betty in Wonderland from Simply B Stamps. I also printed her on MiC card and colored her with my Copics.  I added some Red Stickles to the bows on her stockings and Glossy Accents to the cherry on the cake.  I cut her out with my Cameo and popped her up over the rest of the scene.  The Tea sentiment was cut with my Cameo using a cut file from the Silhouette store.

Here is a close-up of the images:


Thanks for stopping by!  Your next stop on the hop is Mette's wonderful blog!  Don't forget to leave comments at every stop along the way, because there are two hidden prizes for today's hop and all you have to do is comment for a chance to win!  If you get lost along the way, the entire blog hop list is posted on the Simply B blog.

We hope you will also be inspired to play along with our "anything goes" challenge at the Little Miss Muffet Challenge blog.  You have until Tuesday, April 16th, to enter.  As always, if you use a LMM stamp, you can enter multiple times.  Otherwise, please enter only once.

Have a great day and enjoy the festivities!

  3. Carla, I love your coloring on the gorgeous image. I did a double take when I saw you posted your card because I just posted my card using the exact same paper with the new TLC image! Sometimes we do think on the same wavelength - I know too scary.
