Sassy From the Get Go



The May class this month over on Scrap Freak is "Be Inspired" - a set of 12 prompts to inspire and push your creativity.  Today's prompt is Fashion Trends . 

I made  this layout for the ruffles portion of this challenge:

April 2011 issue

I know they're not exactly what you'd call "traditional" ruffles, but I based them on a gorgeous ruffled t-shirt made by Elizabeth Kartchner HERE.  (I stitched it reeeaaaaalllllly late at night so blame it on fatigue that I somehow allowed the bunched up parts of the ruffles flatten out when I stitched.  Ugh!)



Loving the color combo on here, too.  (It'll pop up again tomorrow, LOL.)


My Pink Ninjas ruffled layout "Mad:Style" is also featured as a sample for the class. 


Check out all the rest of the prompts in this month's Scrap Freak class.  Lots of great inspiration to be had!!!

Mad Style

Had so much fun with today's Pink Ninjas prompt.  Lots of yummy things all rolled into one:

Prompt - stilo  (pronounced "style-oh")
Technique - crepe paper
Pink Twist - paper


January 2011 issue

 
When I saw that we had to use crepe paper I was all, "Awwwww...how the heck am I going to use that??"  Well, slap my ass and call me Fanny, I LUV crepe paper now!!!  Oh, you KNOW this stuff is going to start showing up all over the place now.  Goodness knows I have enough of it from all the birthday parties we've thrown.  I always keep everything left over from parties "just in case" and I ALWAYS overbuy so I ALWAYS have lots of party stuff.  Heck, if you showed up on my doorstep right now and said you needed to throw a fully decorated birthday party in 30 minutes, I'd just need to know what theme.  I got your back, baby!


Can't go wrong with pink houndstooth and crowns, now, can ya?


Everything other than the crepe paper and the alpha stickers are from the Ninja Addicts' kit "Carousel". 


So much girly goodness it'll make your teeth ache.  But in a goooood way.  There are THREE of these gargantuan felt and fabric flowers in the kit made by Ninja Master Ally.  They're sooo pretty.  (I'm just wondering what it's going to do to the scrapbook, lol.  No joke, they're about 1" tall.)


Hop on over to the Ninjas blog to check out what the rest of the Design Team made for your inspiration.  Some truly gorgeous stuff!!!! 

Do you remember last week when the Ninja Addicts held a little ol' blog hop with some cutie pie little stuffy owlies made by Ninja Carrie for prizes?   And I said even though there were 2 owls shown there really was only one up for grabs because I was going to win the other one??  Well...

Say hello to Josie Myers!!


She's MINE, all mine!!!!  I can't wait to hold her in my hot little hands.  Yea!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll be sure to take pictures of her arrival and settling in.  LOL.

Have a great Wednesday!!
