I stamped her out coloured her with copics and added shiny touches with an acrylic gold paint pen from Nova. Then I masked her and created the back ground by ink blending Spun sugar, kitsch flamingo and wilted violet distress oxide inks using the cloudy skies stencil from Heffy Doodle.
The sentiment is from the Heffy Doodles chimply the best clear stamp set from Heffy Doodle.

This stamp is from Moonlight Whispers Stamps and is called the darkest depths. I wanted to change her up and give her a pastel feel. She was so much fun to colour up with my copics and I just had to add the pearls for that little touch of extra texture.
The sentiment is from a Sweet November Stamps stamp set called Sea birds.
Sometimes in life we just have to roll with what we get thrown our way. I just hope that I can have as much fun rolling with it as this Skateboard Kate is having. This fun stamp is from the brilliant Moonlight Whispers - Illustrations by Annie Rodrigue and you can get her direct from the Moonlight Whispers store (in Canada) or from the Crafty Purple Frog store here in the UK. I kept my card for her very simple and just added a sentiment from another Moonlight Whispers Stamp set called "Rollin' back to the 90's" as I wanted her to really pop.

I am so excited to be a Guest Designer again for Heffy Doodles this week. This is my third post and today I am using one card layout and making two different cards. Of course using lots of yummy Heffy Doodle goodies
These are the two cards I have made using the brilliant bright and fun Summer Holiday paper pack, stamps (with their coordinating dies), sparkle mix for that touch of bling and stencils. Everything I used is from the awesome Heffy Doodle. I really love that you can get everything you need from the one brand to make great fun cards.
So let’s break these cards down. I am going to use the yellow and green Thank you fur everything card in my example but as you can see you can use the stamps and stencils you have and make your own scene. Here is what you will need:
2 different pattern papers
In my picture the 2 pieces of yellow paper are cut to 5 1/4 x 2 1/2 inches
The green paper is cut to 5 7/8 x 2 inches
I backed these on a piece of Huckleberry card stock which is a great navy blue colour I cut it 6 x 6 inches.
As you can see I also drew a line around the edge of my card and I did this before I stuck it all together by hand with a ruler. I forgot to use a white pen to line around the huckleberry card stock at the back and did this later as I just love how it finishes everything off.
I know this is a boring picture but it is hard to get a picture of white card on a white background so I have stacked these two next piece together just to show you how they will be added to the card. Don’t stick them together yet though as you want to do some stencilling on the white piece first.
The sizes for these are 4 x 3 3/4 inch for the white card and that is another piece of huckleberry card this time at 4 1/4 x 3 3/4 inches.
Now you have all your parts it is time for the fun bit! Pick your stamps and stencils
For the first card I used these Heffy Doodle supplies:
The next thing I did was coloured all the cute critters that were just calling out to me to be stamped up from the Two by Two Safari animals and that adorable lion from the Mane Squeeze stamp set. Before using my Heffy Doodle mini die cutting machine and their coordinating dies to cut around them.
Time to get stencilling! The wildside stencil gave a great pattern to make a background on the white 4 x 3 1/2 inch card. Again the edges for me had to be drawn around then I stuck this to my piece of Huckleberry card stock.
I stamped the sentiment from the Furry Friend sentiment stamps in the top left corner of my stencilled square and then it was time to assemble everything.
To add that touch of bling some sequins from the Pride sparkle mix were the perfect addition to be scattered across the card.
But as I said you can use these measurements and this idea and give it your own twist. Change up the stamps you use and the stencils. I used stencils to create a scene background for my llama card rather than just having a pattern. Plus I moved the patterned papers slightly so the pink paper was in the centre of the card.
The Heffy Doodle Supplies I used for this second card are:
This is Amy coming to you on a different day this week with my Sweet November Stamps DT card due to the fun collab hop with Heffy Doodle that went on on Tuesday. You have until next Tuesday the 26th of March to enter the hop by the way so be sure to click HERE if you haven't already hopped along for your chance to win some great prizes.
Now onto my card for today......This duo are digi stamps from the awesome Sweet November Stamps. they are both from the Midsummer Mushroom Collection and are called Honeycup & Porcini. I just couldn't resist putting them together for this card. I didn't colour either of their mushrooms the colours they would be in real life but for me that is the fun of colouring 😁 You can pick the colours you want.
It's Amy here from Crafty Purple Frog I am so excited to be back as Guest Designer with my second post. Today I have another YouTube video for you. This time stretching your stash and adding stitching in your card making.
Adding some stitching really gives your cards more texture and dimension. And as for the papers the Heffy Doodle summer holiday 6" x 6" paper pad has such fun bright colours in it that it never fails makes me smile. You can see my video for all the details on how I added the stitching to this cute little cow HERE.
The Tutti frutti sparkle mix really brings a touch of shine to the creation as a finishing touch.
Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today. I hope you enjoy the video let me know in the comments what Heffy Doodle stamps you would like to add some stitching to. I am going to have a play making a lions mane next using the Mane squeeze stamp set.
I am entering this card for the following challenges:
I got a pack of this gorgeous washi tape from DRK Crafts it is the Dovecrafts bright set. I love the foil effect that some of these tapes have and this was so quick to put together as a back ground for this card.
To finish it off I used a big Thank you sentiment also from Dovecraft to finish it all off.

Spiin embroidery flossfromDRK crafts. I got the pack of 144 so there are so many options and I also got the needles and the needle threader with the threads that I didn't even realise came in the pack.
This little guy is from the brand new clear stamp release by Sweet November Stamps and this set is called Kitty Cuddles : Sully. You can grab it from my Crafty Purple Frog store HERE for you UK people or direct from Sweet November Stamps HERE and they are based in the US.
Here is a YouTube video showing my colouring and how I added the stitching to this little guy
I used the following copic colours to colour in this little boy and his cat:
Skin: E33, E11, E00
Top:YR07, YR04, Y08
Jeans: B99, B97, B95
Shoes: E25, E23, E21
Cat: W8,W6,W4, E04
When I do this again I will use a thicker card stock or add more tape to the area I am putting the thread in just to strengthen the card a bit more. I would also probably give the area I am adding the thread to a base coat of a colour just to hide some of the gaps and add a bit more depth but I am still so happy with how this turned out :D

I am so excited to be up on the Heffy Doodle blog as a Guest Designer, my first post features a YouTube video taking you through how to make this cute scene card.
For my card I have mixed and matched a range of Heffy Doodle goodies.
The beautiful princess is an oldie but a goodie called Lillianne. She is another digi stamp from Sweet November Stamps. I love the way you can mix and match all the digi stamps so easily to make fun scenes like this. I coloured this scene with a mix of copic markers and a gold Nova acrylic paint pen. to add some shiny metallic details to her bodice.
Shopping our stash - Inspired by fairy tales (this princess digi I have had for more years than I want to admit and I have her in a rubber stamp version as well)
I am so ready for the warmer weather to show up now. I think this little mermaid is feeling the same. She was part of the last digi Christmas release over at Sweet November Stamps last year but she definitely works for any season.
She is part of the Griswold and Bethany digi set and because she is a digi you could grab her right now. No waiting for or paying for postage. It doesn't get much better than that :D
I have coloured her up with the following copics:
Hair: W10, W8, W6, W4
Skin: V17, E35, E13
Tail: R85, R83, R81
Clam shell: E42, E41
Sand: E43, E42
Water: B00
