You'll find the new Store to be much more user friendly. Plus, there's a fab Gallery Feature attached to your account, so you can upload your own Make it Crafty projects, and like and comment on the other cards you see.
To celebrate the opening of the new Store, we have up to 25% off products across the Store. No code needed. This offer runs until Sunday 22 June. 
What's a Blog Hop without prizes?
Leave a comment in The Store Gallery for a chance to win the entire Sitting Girls Collection, or one of two $10 Gift Certificates. More comments = More chances of winning.
Each of the ten Sitting Girls are hidden, plus Robbie the Sailor Boy, somewhere amongst all the stops of the Blog Hop. We'll be randomly selecting a winner from all the comments left on the relevant Blog. You have until Sunday 22 June to get your comments where they need to be. 
So, let's get this Blog Hop going...
I'm featuring two girls cuz I couldn't just color one. I teamed up Jacinta Sitting/Thinking with the wavy blonde hair and Rebecca Sitting with the Brown straight hair.

Both are watercolored with Distress inks and ONLY distress ink pads this time.
A very easy soft tone card and yes it's for sale email me if you're interested but best hurry cuz my mates are going to DIBBS it once this goes live lol!

I used  lots of pastel pink, aqua and light greys for this card , a little shabby chic you should say.





easy peasy lemon squeezy and that's all from me today.
   Thanks so much for hopping by. Your next stop is Marika.
If you get lost, here's the full Blog Hop...

LDRS Summer Luvin with my Bestfriend


Welcome all to the LDRS New CandiBean Summer Luvin Collection Hop!!!! 
I'm glad you could join us and if you popped in to see what I've been up to well let's just say I've been coloring A LOT LOL! Few things behind the scene and so forth.

Anywhoo I'm so excited to share my creation and be part of this hop with my awesome DT sistas.
 If you are coming from my lovely and talented friend Ann Marie's blog you are right on track. Also guess what we have a special guest none other than Diane Carubia the Illustrator of these adorable images. Please make sure to stop by her blog and leave some love :)

Ok let me walk you through my project and what I've done.
Firstly this frame was put together using these two cuties simply two besties enjoying summer flowers.
Their names are Jessies Summer Garden and Peekaboo.
Both colored with my Tim Distress Ink pads and Tim's markers too.

Listening to Lana Del Rey (she's my obsession lately) coloring these two has been so therapeutic and I finished it so fast I wanted to color more. 



Now you see that sentiment well ya just got a sneak peek on a sentiment collection part of  an upcoming release. Oh is it so cute!

sneak peek #2 on a different sentiment :) I wanted to hang a little on this small  of flowers. It seems big but it's really a tiny brown pot carrying some Begonias.


and did you hear for all those stampers out there. Our chants and frustrations have been heard! 

DO YOU SEE WHAT LDRS is doing OMG! I love it.
 Look look look.... 
I LOVE the idea of the stamped image that makes it so much easier to see for those that prefer to visual it in black and white or those who store their stamps in binders. Isn't it awesome!
