Little Miss Muffet Stamps Challenge # 202-Anything Goes

Hello friends!  Time for a new challenge at Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  Challenge #202-Anything Goes.  I used this fun new image, Old Time Pick Up Truck, with apples.

I had fun coloring this image with my copics.  I love Fall and was only able to go apple picking just once this season.  I had hoped to go again, but it didn't happen.

Here is another card I would like to share with you.  I won this stamp from LMMS, because they sponsored Jennifer Dove's Copic Boot Camp.

Thanks again Barbara for the beautiful stamp!

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you will consider joining the challenge.

Hello friends!  I hope you all had a fun and safe Halloween!  I am so excited, I can't sleep.  I am in Phoenix at Jennifer Dove's boot camp.  The fun will begin in just a few short hours.  Here is a card I made with Polka Dot Pals Jack.  Time for a new challenge at Little Miss Muffet Stamps, Challenge #201-Anything Goes.

And this I shared last week.

So, same Jack, but 3 totally different cards!  Barbara's images are so much fun and I love that she encourages artistic expression by allowing us to play and have fun with her images.  And just for a little throwback fun...

Barbara's fabulous card!

Jennifer's fabulous card!

That was one of my favorite challenges with 2 of my favorite coloring artists!!  I still have so much to learn!  And that is why I am here in Phoenix at November Bootcamp 2018.  Thanks for letting me share some oldies, but goodies!  Have a great day!

Little Miss Muffet Stamps Inspiration

Hello friends!  Today I am sharing a Halloween card I made with 2 Little Miss Muffet Stamps images, Spooky Park Scene Background and Lydia's Wolf Cub.  I wanted to create a spooky silhouette scene with the images.  If I were to use both images again I would probably print the wolf smaller and separately  so that it could be placed better against the moon to look like a wolf howling in the distance.

Now that I have pointed out how I would have done this differently,  I really want to make another one.  I will post the other when I finish.  Thanks for your time!

Here is the revamped image.  As you can see, moving the image of the wolf makes a big difference.  I am glad I redid it!  Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs and smiles,

Janice

Polka Dot Pals Dakota

Hello friends!

Today I am sharing a card I made with Little Miss Muffet Stamps, Polka Dot Pals Dakota.  If you buy this image you get a girl and a boy version.  I used the girl image.

I colored her with copics and colored pencils.  Once again I drew the face.  Love to practice those faces.  I am happy with her eyes this time.  Now I need to learn how to draw different mouths and noses so they don't all look similar.  This image would be great to use as a Thank you for your service, or if you have a little one who loves police you could make a birthday card with it.  Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a great day!

Little Miss Muffet Stamps Challenge #187-Anything Goes ar

 Good morning friends!  Time for a new challenge #187 at Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  I used Happy Mail, a new release, with Mimi's Ladybugs.  Since there is a little worm inside the mailbox I thought Mimi would be a good choice.  It looks as though she has received a ladybug as her "happy mail".

The images were colored with copics and colored pencils.  I thought the red and white polka dot paper was the perfect choice to complete the look.  Enjoy the day and thanks for stopping by!

Hugs and smiles,

Janice

Several Cards to Share

Hello everyone!

I have several cards to share with you today using Little Miss Muffet Stamps.

This is Polka Dot Pals-Peter colored with color pencils.  To create some depth I added different textures to his clothing.  I made his shirt plaid.  I colored his jeans and erased places that I thought would be worn, the knees and pockets.

This is Jr. Hatter Kit.  She has been colored with copics and color pencils.

This is Polka Dot Pals Mieme.  I drew her face and colored her with copics and color pencils.  I tried to do a finger wave hairstyle. Not too happy with it but I think showing your mistakes is a good thing.  Thanks so much for stopping by!  Have a great day!

Hugs and smiles,

Janice                                                                                             

Little Miss Muffet Stamps Challenge 186 - Anything goes

Hello friends!  Time for another challenge at Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  Challenge #186-Anything Goes.  For my card today I have used Polka Dot Pals Tabitha.  Once again, I am practicing faces.  I am pretty happy with it, even though the eyes are a bit crooked.  That's okay.  Human faces are not symmetrical either, at least not perfectly.

She has been colored with copics and colored pencils.  I hope you like it.  Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hugs and smiles,

Little Miss Muffet Stamps

Hello friends!  Today I am sharing a new image Polka Dot Pals Mieme.  I love the Polka Dot Pals because I like to practice making faces and Barbara the owner of Little Miss Muffet Stamps totally encourages people to give it a try.  If you are not brave enough to try it out with your own drawing she does have a Polka Dot Pals Add-on Faces set that you could use instead.  Here is my card.

Polka Dot Pals Mieme, not perfect but that's ok.  So Barbara and I were talking about how difficult it is to critique other peoples work, for fear of hurting feelings.  Barbara coined this acronym, CCAOK, Constructive Criticism is A-OK.  I appreciate constructive criticism, because it helps me grow.  Here is some CCAOK from Barbara about my image.

Barbara Sproatmeyer I love how you're working on the faces and this one really draws my attention. Love it! Are you ready for a little CCOAK? For the bottom line of the eye, I would try using the same color as the skin tone for 3/4 of it. I'm assuming you weren't going for the mascara look. The lighter color will still give you a guide to color with but it won't stand out as much. Here's a picture ...

Barbara Sproatmeyer Yes.... but only if it was received well.<3 span="">

Here is a picture of her with the eyes touched up.  I think she looks much better.  Thank you Barbara.  I will try out your suggestion the next time I color a face. ;)

I hope you feel inspired to take your creativity to another level.  Thanks for stopping by!

Janice
