Just Keep Swimming

Hiya crafty peeps!  Whew, it's another Monday...but the good news is that means there's a new digi release over at Some Odd Girl.  I'm here to share a sneak peek at Angel Fish!  I had some fun putting together this clean and simple card by using the digi stamp twice, flipping the image on one, so that it looks like there's a couple of fishy buddies :)  I decided to make this a little encouragement card by making the sentiment my favorite line from Finding Nemo that I always say to myself when the going gets tough "Just Keep Swimming".

Now make sure you pop on over to the Some Odd Girl blog to see some more inspiration and to get a peek at what the other release image is and enjoy the amazing makes that the other gals on the design team put together.  Thanks for stopping in to visit me!

Oddtober Fest Halloween Hop

Oddtoberfest Halloween Blog Hop

We’d like to welcome you to Some Odd Girl‘s 3rd annual Trick or Treat Halloween Hop!

Thank you so much for joining us!  This year we're throwing a crafty costume party for you and all of the Odd Girl's have posted Halloween costume themed creations! You might have arrived from Melissa’s blog – if so, you’re spot on!  If not, you'll want to click here to go back to the beginning and make sure you hit all the houses....I mean blogs!

How will the trick or treating work? As you stop at each blog along the way to oooh and ahh at the fun Halloween costume themed crafts, our Design Team will either have a treat for you, or a trick (don't be scared, it's a crafty tip, and has nothing to do with house egging)

I'm not telling you which DT has a treat though and you can't make me! Besides, in order to qualify for a treat, you have to leave a comment on every blog along the hop. One person from each treat blog comment section will be awarded a code for $10 of Digi's in the Some Odd Girl shop!

But we couldn't let everyone else go without a little treat, so everyone can use code TRICKORTREAT to get 20% off your entire purchase through the weekend!

Don't forget to leave a comment at each stop to qualify for a treat and more importantly, have fun!

Are we ready? Here is your Hop order:

Kristy

I don't know about you but I love making my own little Halloween decor for my house and office.  It's so fun to incorporate your craftyness into the spaces where you spend your most time.  Here I used Vampiress (one of my favorite digi stamps!) to decorate a little coffin.  One of my favorite tricks with Halloween images is to do something out of the box- like give her purple hair.  I mean if there's ever a time for non traditional it's with a Halloween image right?

And there you have it! We will hop now through October 31st at midnight Eastern, and our winners will be announced next week on the newsletter, so if you haven't signed up for it yet, you can do so at the bottom of the Some Odd Girl homepage. Happy Haunting – I mean HOPPING!

Your next stop is Anna!!

Have fun and a very Happy Halloween from all of us at Some Odd Girl!

XOXO

Hiya crafty peeps!  Just popping in to share that there's a new digi release happening over at Some Odd Girl today- and if you love those SOG critters this is one you're not going to want to miss!  I've got a little sneak peek of mister Puggles here- isn't he the cutest?!?  I can think of soooo many people in my life that he would be perfect for!

I decided to try something a little different with him as far as coloring and I'm not quite sure what I think of it...I printed him on some kraft paper and then used chalk colored pencils and q-tips for blending.  What do you think?  I'm thinking I'll stick to my Copics, lol :)

Now there are 3 images released today so make sure you hop on over to the Some Odd Girl blog to check out the rest of the amazing inspiration.  And you can pick these cuties up for yourself in the SOG shop!  Make sure to also check out the ongoing Oddtober Fest that's taking place in the Some Odd Girl Facebook group as we're having quite the shindig this month.  As always, thanks for popping in to visit me!

Epic

Hiya crafty peeps!  It's time for a new digi release over at Some Odd Girl and this week we've got the amazing Amazon Mae!  Isn't she awesome?  She was a blast to color and I can just see her being perfect for so many occasions.  The instant I saw her I knew exactly what papers I wanted to pair her with- the Bo Bunny Zoology collection from a few years ago- they just seemed to be the perfect fit- and then I went for the out-of-the-box circle card and an over sized word sticker that just seemed to fit perfectly.  

I hope that you love Amazon Mae as much as I do!  Make sure to check out some more amazing inspiration over on the Some Odd Girl blog- and if you already know you're ready to grab her up for yourself you can find her in the SOG shop :)  Thanks so much for stopping by to visit me today!

Christmas in September!

Hiya peeps!  Guess what?  After a long summer break from clear stamp releases Some Odd Girl is back with a bang!  Yay!!!  And to celebrate in style there are two new holiday clear sets to showcase...

First up is the Build a Snowman set...much like paper dolls you can mix and match and number of accessories with this awesome set to make your snowman exactly how you want them.  I went pretty clean and simple with mine and love how quick and easy it is to put together a cute holiday card!

Then we have the adorable rotund little Santa who is an absolute joy to color up!  I had so much fun with his bright red suit and bag full of prezzies :)

Make sure you stop on by the Some Odd Girl blog to see all of the wonderful projects the DT put together- there's always endless inspiration!  And if you want to snap these up for yourself just pop on over to the SOG shop :)  Thanks for stopping in to visit- hope everyone has a fabulous day!

It's Nerdy Bird Time

Hiya crafty peeps!  Can you believe it's time for another awesome digi release over at Some Odd Girl?  Well today we're introducing two adorable owls- this one here is Nerd Bird!  Isn't he just the cutest?  Those glasses just make him look so dapper and nerdy is totally in right now so he's perfect for so many different kinds of cards.  But I'm especially thinking he would look cute on some back to school stuff :)

Make sure you stop on by the Some Odd Girl blog to see the rest of the inspiration for this release and the other amazing image!  And if you already know you simply can't live without him you can find him in the SOG shop.  Thanks so much for stopping by to visit me!

Geek of the Week

Hiya crafty peeps!  Just checking in for this new week with a brand new digi release over at Some Odd Girl- meet Geeky Tobie!  Geek status has been elevated lately to a new level of cool making this an awesome image for pretty much any occassion :)  I decided to keep things clean and simple and sentiment free for the time being- I figure as soon as I decide what to use it for I can add the appropriate sentiment- do you ever do that?

Make sure to stop on by the Some Odd Girl blog to check out some more amazing inspiration.  And you can pick this little cutie up for your very own over in the SOG shop!  Thanks as always for stopping by to visit me- hope everyone has a fabulous week!
