G-R-E-E-T-I-N-G-S!


Greetings, F-R-I-E-N-D-S!

It's a late night in Scrapland. I have struck the "creative spirit" and didn't want to call it a night until I popped something out for the early-risers! I hope your having a fabulous weekend and gettin' some craft-on, WHEREVER you are!



I thought this was the cutest lil' guy, new from Stampin' Up! He's a little smaller than I'd imagined, but I was still able to give him some color and life with my trusty aqua painter and Water Color Wonder Crayons! That's continuing to be my "go to" technique for fast and beautiful color! I'm finally glad that I have the original S/U tin that holds all 48 colors for quick and easy access... This thing used to truly vex me, since I have DUMPED my crayons in travel many times. Stampin' Up! has changed to smaller containers to hold each color family individually, which is much better for crafting on the road, but for work in my studio, I'm now thrilled with the original tin: a sweet victory for an oldie AND goodie! {SOME DAY, I'd like to re-buy the families in the smaller containers and then they can live in my mobile scrappin' storage! It's good to hoard...}

So that's it for now, Earthlings! Be well and prosper!

Oh, goodie!! I'm the first (probably because I'm up early!!) What a cute little robot! You did him proud! Love the watercolor wonder crayons, too, but haven't used them too much. Hmmm... maybe I need to get them out!!

This little guy is so adorable. I have collected a few robots but I never know that to do with them. I love your go to technique and the shadow you added just makes this stamp shine!
