Hello, my bloggy friends! Today I am, along with the rest of the Beyond the Burtonesque Dolls , sharing the last 3 images from the new Simply B Stamps Zombabes collection. Also, this will be the last post for the Beyond the Burtonesque Dolls. I am sad to see that it is coming to a close, but I look to the future for some exciting new adventures. I have really enjoyed my time as a Doll. Here is the first card I made for today. This is Vacationing Veronica. I think she's awesome. She looks so chill, and I really like how she was drawn. I colored her with ONLY Copics! I hardly ever do that! Here's a close up. I added some Antique Linen Distress Ink on top of the whole image, to age it a bit. The skull and crossbones that you see in the background are from Bombshell Stamps' Speed Shop set. The sentiment, also from Bombshell is from the Mermaid Treasure set. My next card features two of the Zombabes. one is Haute Hazel, and the other is Beach Blast Alison. Named f...

Hello out there! The Beyond the Burtonesque Dolls and I have a new release from Simply B Stamps to share with you today. If you are here for the fabulous Bombshell Hump Day Hop, please click HERE . Today, we are previewing the brand new Zombabe collection. Zombie hotties in bikinis! I have a card that I made with Snappy Ginger to share with you. How sassy is she? She's even sporting Ga-Ga like shades! Zombabe, for sure! I colored her with primarily Copics, though I used a couple of my watercolor markers on her hair. I like making my zombies this bright green, as you'll see with my projects for tomorrow. These summery gals need to be bright. I'll save the muted greens for the "not so cute" zombies. Hahaha! Tomorrow, the Dolls and I will be sharing 3 more images from this collection of 6 Zombabes. You can check out the rest from today's preview over at the Dolls' Blog. Thanks for stopping by. Have a creep-tatsic day!

Greetings! I took a bit of a much needed bloggy-break, but now I am back, and I have a few new Simply B Stamps images to share with you! This collection is called Squeakin'! Have you seen The Emperor's New Groove? Gosh, I LOVE that movie! It's hilarious! Anyway, ya know when Cronk is translating for the squirrel? "Squeak sqeakin's squeakity-squeak!" That's what this new Jude and the Rockers collection is named for! This release is not being done through the regular SBS DT, rather the new Challenge DT ! I just got lucky enough to be able to play along. Here's 3 of the new images. This is Which Way Brittany. How cute is that little deer? And how sweet of Brittany to show her which way she needs to go! I colored these cuties with my watercolor markers and my Copics. Phoenix chose her shirt color. :) This is Snap Shot Ariel. And check out her tiny bear friend! Another sweet image, right? Again, with this card, I kept my colors pretty neutr...

I have 2 more Rios to share with you today. This is from the newest Simply B Stamps collection, The Rios. I am going to share the more Summery images today. First up is Summer Rio. She's such a cutie! Lover her skully umbrella! I colored this (and my next Rio) with watercolor markers and Copics. You can click on any of my pictures for a bigger view. This is Victorian Swimsuit Rio. I love her swimsuit and parasol! Phoenix chose the colors for her, and he did a great job! He chose my personal favorites! My "Retro" is from Bombshell Stamps. I thought that it was perfect for this image of Rio. So what do you think of this release? Make sure you hurry on over to the SBS Shop to snag them while you can. Also, all of the Limited Edition Digis are available for only $3.50! While Betty's away, the DT will play! But I don't know how long that price will last! Betty may be back any day, so hurry! Before that price is gone, and so are the Ltd. Ed. digis! Tha...

This week, the SImply B Stamps team was to release the newest collection, The Rio's. But, as you may have heard, Betty has been hospitalized, so Miss Rio herself and Suzi have decided to release them early! What's that mean? Not only can you see ALL of the Rios today, but you can also buy them right now! No waiting! I've got a couple of projects to show you with them today, and I'll have some more goodies tomorrow. This is Christmas Princess Rio. Isn't she pretty? O love her Victorian attire. And I kept the colors in line with the style of clothing. The yellow cardstock looks a bit harsh in the photo, but in real life, in matches much better. I love her wrapping paper! It has little bats on it!And her hat with it's skull! This is Ice Skating Rio. Again, I love her outfit. What's with me and the super soft colors??? Good thing my next Rio has bolder tones...but you'll have to visit her on the SBS Blog or wait until my next post. ;) I ...

Hello! It's release day for the Toxic Teens from Simply B Stamps ! I hope you checked out the Beyond the Burtonesque Dolls post yesterday, as that's the team that's sharing these cool new images with you. If you didn't, please go and visit The Dolls. Yesterday we previewed 3 new images for you. Today, we are sharing the last 4 in the new Toxic Teens collection. I have 3 cards to show you here. Up first, is Tommy. I love this little guy. He's adorable. And super cool. I love coloring these images because of all the details. Check out his rad sneakers, for example.  I colored Tommy (and my other 2 images with a combination of watercolor markers and Copics. That little music note stamp coming out of Tommy's headphones is from Inkadinkado. Now, the next 2 images are really special to me. Betty Boo named them after my kidlings!!! How cool is that? Needless to say, they are thrilled! So, I'd like to introduce you to Nix and Rhi..... Check hi...

Yes, yes! It is time for another preview with Simply B Stamps . But this time, it is with the Beyond the Burtonesque Dolls ! We are previewing 3 of the new Toxic teens today, and the last 4 will be tomorrow. And, they will be available for purchase tomorrow! I have one project to share with you today. This is Charlotte. Isn't she sweet? I love her! How great is her hat?! I used my watercolor markers and my Copics to color Charlotte in. And I used some of my favorite colors! These Toxic Teens are just begging for ultra saturated colors, in my opinion. Please hop on over to the Dolls' Blog to see what the rest of the Design Team has created. And be sure to come back for a visit tomorrow, when we will show of the rest of this rad new collection! Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

It's release day for the Wickidz! This is the newest (and one of the darker) collections by Simply B Stamps. The Beyond the Burtonesque Dolls not only have 3 more Wickidz images to share with you, but we also have a set of 12 coordinating sentiments to go along with them! And, these sentiments will be great not only for this set, but for many, many other images you probably already own! Today, I am sharing Winnie with you. How great is she?! I wonder what she's concocting...Do you think it's something good...or naughty? From the look on her face...I'm thinkin' naughty! I colored Winnie in with my own concoction of watercolor markers and Copics. I added a cool image of a potion bottle from Inkadinkado and a whole lotta beautiful, gunmetal colored glitter. Of course, this was also begging for my Martha Stewart Drippy Goo punch, which I did with colors that looked like the candle wax drips in Winnie's background. And how great is that paper with her?...
