Welcome to Day 3 of CDS Product Parade! Things Are Getting a Little Nutty! :)

Hi Everyone!
I get to show you 2 more stamp sets that I illustrated for Clear Dollar Stamps today!
My first card was done with my "Squirrel Chatter" set.
I used Discount Card Stock's - Midnight Black, Oatmeal Hopsack, and Brilliant White.
The pretty Brown Swirls ribbon is from Really Reasonable Ribbon.
The image is colored with watercolors.


The set is just $7.99!


The second was made with my "My Little School Bus" set.
I used Discount Card Stock's - Bazzill Raven Stripe, Brilliant White, and Posh Red Twill.
The apples are cut from a piece of The Paper Studio's - Apples On Black paper.
The image was water colored.
True's Tip #1...The reds were all done with a red fine tip Sharpie marker. They really work well for vibrant reds!


This set would be great to make cards for teachers, bus drivers, or a cute lunch bucket surprise note for the kiddos! It would also look awesome on a "Back to School" or "School Days" scrapbook page!  ;)
True's Tip #2...Buy this set for a small teacher's gift. It would also be a great stamp for them to use to let students know they have done a "Great Job!". The teacher could stamp it on the kid's good papers and then the child could color it in. What a great insensitive to to a good job!
You could make the teacher a card with the set, then slip it inside of the card as the gift. I think any teacher would be thrilled!
It's just $5.99!  :)

CDS's New "Un-Frog-Ettable" Digi



Hello!
I am a little late getting this posted due to some computer issue. Don't ya just hate it when that happens?

I have a couple of samples to show you today that were done using the new "Un-Frog-Ettable" digi set that I illustrated for Clear Dollar Stamps.
The set would work for anyone but would be TOAD-ALLY AWESOME for teachers. You can download it instantly for only $3.00!

My first sample is a covered note pad that would make a great teacher gift.



The next sample is a card that would work great for a male teacher. It is sometimes hard to find stamps for the guys!


Please head over to Lori's blog for a list of the other girls who made samples with this image and to check out the rest of the new digi releases!

Thanks for dropping by!
A comment from you would be TOAD-ALLY AWESOME!!!

Hugs,
True :D
