TCP Tuesday


Hi everyone!! So, I'm a few days late posting my TCP Tuesday card but I have it done and I have an excuse. Poor little Joshi is sick again! I swear he gets over one cold and another hits a few days later. He has been coughing his little lungs out all day and night. Well, today not only do I have a sneak peek from The Cat's Pajamas but I also have a fun announcement. Alma is having a "Name that Bear" contest. It appears that the newest little guy/girl at TCP is nameless :( So, she wants everyone to put their thinking caps on and name Mr./Mrs. Bear. If you win then you will get new TCP stamps for the WHOLE YEAR!!! Yup, you heard right!! All you have to do is email with your name suggestion. One email per entry. Well, now to the fun TCP challenge. This week's hostess is the super talented Leigh. She has a fabulous sketch for us. I had so much fun with my new "A Beary Good Year" set. This adorable stamp set will be available on February 9th!! Keep a look out for more sneak peeks from the Cat Pack. That's all the fun info for me but make sure to sign in to Alma's guest book with your TCP Tuesday card for a chance to win Swanky Stamper of the month!
Happy Stamping,
Ana

TCP Blog Hop


Hi All! Today we have another fun TCP Tuesday blog hop to share. The Cat's Pajamas is having 4 great Kitty Kat Packs for sale. They will be featuring the most adorable TCP Valentine's Day stamps that we know and love along with new buttons and glitter! How cool is that?! My card today features two of the Valentine's Day sets. They are called "Be Still My beating Heart" and "Puppy Love". I adore these stamps. I also used the new buttons and glitter. They really bring the whole card together. The patterned paper is from MFT. Well, that's all for me but you have more blog hopping left to do. Next up in line is Alma. I can't wait to see what she has created.
Happy Stamping,

Baby Blog Hop!!


Welcome to a VERY special TCP Tuesday challenge! If you haven't already heard the amazing news our very own Jen del Muro delivered a beautiful baby boy January 6th. We are so happy for the del Muro family. So in honor of baby Nicolas Robert everyone at TCP has created a baby boy card for this TCP Tuesday blog hop. The hop will start with the hostess with the mostess Joanne. She has challenged us to make a card using Jen's nursery decor colors. How cool is that?! I pulled out my very favorite TCP baby stamp! I swear I can never put this animal train down whenever I need a baby card. I was also very excited when I found this cool patterned paper that coordinates so nicely with the stamp. The larger animals remind me of the mommy's of the baby train animals..lol! Well, that's all for me today. But before I go I want to wish my very good friend a HUGE congratulations on her special delivery. Love ya girlie!!!! Next up in the blog hop is Toni. I can't wait to see what creation she has for us today.
Happy Blog Hopping,

Hoo Hoo


I am so enjoying these stamps from My Favorite Things. This cute little owl is getting me in the Valentine's Day mood. How cute is he? He is from the Stephanie Fizer collection. I adore her designs! I colored him in with my Copics and sponged the edges. I am really loving that effect. The patterned paper is from Basic Grey along with the stickers and ladybug brad. I added some paper piercing and ribbon to complete the card. That's all for today but before I leave I want to wish everyone a good weekend!
Hugs,
Ana

Love Bot


Hey everyone! So, last night I pulled out the cutest little robot ever! He is from My Favorite Things. I decided to combine him with some fun Cosmo Cricket patterned paper I bought the other day. It goes perfectly with this little guy. I colored him in with Copic markers and added some paper piercing along the edges. I added an arrow to mimic the paper. To make the card look more robotic I added some faux screw brads. I think they make the perfect touch. I didn't want to add to much ribbon to an already busy card so I just put some ribbon tags along the side of the card. To complete the card I added some arrows with my white gel pen on the card base. Well, that's all for today.
Happy Stamping

Feel Better


Hi All! So, how about another feel better TCP project? I am having so much fun with these The Cat's Pajamas stamps. I adore how easy it is to make get well gifts for our loved ones. My sister is obsessed with cough drops so this one is dedicated to her. LOL I made this little container so that it could hold cough drops but it could really be used for anything. I colored everything in with my Copics and then added some TCP embellishments. Aren't these colors the best?! I know some of you asked for the template for the previous project. I am in the process for locating the website for these patterns. They are actually not my designs and as soon as I get the site for them I will share it with you. I know it's in one of my million bookmarks. LOL Anywho, that's all for today.
Happy stamping,
Ana
