Sneak Peek #1: New OBP Limited Edition Kit!

Here's a sneak peek of the next Odd Bird Planet Limited Edition kit. This is Part #1 of 3!

Bwa ha ha! I'm wicked and like prolonging the anticipation.

Suffice to say, the images on this kit's unmounted rubber sheet are really, really cute! Better yet, this time, the sheet includes sentiments!

Stay tuned for further peeks!

Feline Arachnophobia!

Kelly's Ragdoll Cat is definitely afraid of Teresa's Spider and thinking "EEK", though she has the Kelly's Patchwork Pumpkins to guard her.

The patterned paper is very old KI paper and the images were colored with Copics.

This is NOT a realistic scene. My real Ragdoll/American Tabby cat and my Tuxedo cat stalk spiders and them eat them for the added protein. Yeah. You needed to know that.

Getting into the spirit!

What spirit? Why Halloween spirit! Ghosts make the best spirits, don't you think?

Kathi's Ghost Priscilla has used her pen to write Halloween Greetings to you using the ink from Kelly's Inkwell.

The ghostly papers are from the Spellbound Collection by Flair Designs.

Fall/Halloween invitation

I've been remiss in updating the ol' blog, but I've got two good excuses. (1) I went to visit the Freshman for "Family Weekend" and had a great time. (2) While there, we went to the Aquarium and some children sneezed on me or something since I've been sick since Tuesday, complete with chills, fever, weakness, dizziness, muscle aches, muscle cramps, sinus headaches, stuffed nose, runny nose, sore throat, and a cough. Lovely. Just lovely. I've been napping a lot and drinking inordinate amounts of tea. I'm totally irritated because I had lots of cleaning, exercising, crafting, and job hunting to do and all I've been good for is sleeping and whinging. Lots and lots of whinging.

Anyways, this card is to kick off the Halloween season. Halloween is my favorite holiday. I love to wear my teeth-chattering skull pin, one of my head bands with devil ears, cat ears, etc, and my ever-so-fashionable plastic skeleton earrings. Plus, I really love watching the little ones come to the house Trick or Treating.

It'll be a bit bittersweet as this will be the first year that I don't have a herd of teenagers hanging about. But I'll get over it and save candy for the little people too.

Anyways, the card features the Spring Tree and a variety of owls from Odd Bird Planet stamps. The paper is by Flair Designs' Autumn Harvest line, which is one of my favories. The sentiment is computer generated. Coloring was done with Prismacolor pencils.

You should definitely visit Odd Bird Planet's store since there are four Halloween-themed kits, including a special edition A La Tarte kit! Check them out by clicking here!

Oh no! Not another Gnome pun?!?!

Yes. It's true. Sorry. I couldn't help myself.

Kelly's Stitched Gnome has the honor of being the "Gnome on the Range" and the range, of course, is the Plain Stove, which reminds me of the stove I grew up with 500 years ago, when dinosaurs roamed and all that.

I used the "What's Cooking" patterned paper by Flair Designs. The arrows are cardstock stickers from Flair too. I just blinged them up a bit.

Feeling (h)Edgy?

Don't you just love the new OBP hedgehogs? I know that I do! When we lived in England, we had a pair of hedgies that lived in our back garden. I used to love to watch them from the kitchen window whilst washing dishes.

Anyways, Cathrine's Mushroom Scene, Kelly's Hedgehog Left, and Kelly's Hedgehog Right were colored with Copic markers. The patterned paper is Basic Grey.
