SCACD Digital Release

SCACD is celebrating 10 new images being released and they are WONDERFUL.  There are a variety with everything from cute to a bit edgy.  I know you will find a couple you must have.

They are now available for purchase in the US Friends HERE

For our non EU Friends HERE

For our EU International Friends HERE

Now, to share some of these images with you. I know you are going to love them!

the stunning FLAMING HEART

I am so glad that the photo captured the glitter and shimmer in this card.  It is really a beautiful image and I just had to make certain it sparkled and was the entire focus of the card. 

the adorable BIRD STACK

Could these birds be any cuter?  Love the sentiment that comes with the image as well.  I can see using the birds for both boy and girl birthday cards, a just because card for a friend and even -with that sentiment- for a loved one on an anniversary.  

Next up is Donna's blog.  I have no doubt you will be amazed by what she has prepared.  If you get lost along the way you can find the full list of participating blogs on the SCACD store blog HERE.

When you finish, be certain to not only grab some images, but SCACD is have a SALE as well!!!  Check it out HERE.

SCACD ECLECTIC SEA RUBBER STAMP RELEASE

SCACD celebrates today a newly released exclusive rubber stamp set Eclectic Sea Collection (9 rubber stamps all together). The Eclectic Sea is a twist of sorts in how something land bound might be seen in the ocean; for example a Sunflower that is now a Coral Sea Flower and vice a versa. So check out the collection as these are really unique and elegant. 

Now available for purchase in the USA HERE for the Eclectic Sea collection.

These images are going to blow your mind - they are AMAZING.  I am so excited to share the Coral Sunflowers Set.  Aren't these fabulous? Look at all the detail!

The second I saw this set I knew I wanted to layer the two Coral Sunflowers so that is what I have done.  The lager is the base and the smaller is colors identically and layered on top with some foam tape for dimension.  Of course there is plenty of sparkle from the stickles as well.  I backed it with paper from the Lawn Fawn Beachside pack.  

I had planned to add more, but once I got it put together, the Coral Sunflower Set just shined and needed nothing else. 

You next stop on the hope is Donna.  I know Donna has something just stunning to share, so go HERE to check it out.  If you get lost along the way, the full list of participants can be found on the store blog HERE.

Once you finish, remember to shop!

SCACD BRAVE HEARTS and ECLECTIC 2 RUBBER STAMP RELEASE

SCACD celebrates today the 2 recently released NEW exclusive rubber stamp sets.  They are the Brave Hearts (a group of 4 empowered gals) as well as Eclectic Collection 2 (a combo of 6 steampunk and ethereal stamps).  With the Eclectic 2 collection if you buy the entire set you get 4 FREE date stamp words!!  SCACD Artist Carmen Medlin and Susana collaborated on the images and we are so happy to be showcasing them to you now :D

Now available for purchase in the USA HERE for the Brave Hearts and Eclectic 2 sets.

Our International Friends can purchase SCACD rubber stamps at Quixotic Paperie HERE.

SCACD Digital images for USA and International can always be found HERE.


I am excited to share an image from each collection with you today.  First up from the Brave Hearts is Fearless.  I am in love with all 4 of these cuties and their great accompanying sentiments.  The brick background is paper from the Authentique paper pack - Durable.

Next up is the Lotus from The Eclectic Collection 2.  I used the Lotus on my art journal pages and wanted to have it represent new beginnings with the words coming out from the Lotus blooms.  The "created on" in the bottom left is one of the 4 date stamp words that you get free when you purchase the entire set.

 For the words, I used the sentiments that come with the Brave Hearts and several from the 2 different Words Sets "SELF" and "AUTHENTIC" that are part of the Mixed Media Blank Canvas Collection.

You should be going next to Roni's BLOG.  I am certain that she has something amazing to share with you.  Be certain you leave her some love when you swing through.  If you get lost along the way, you can find the entire list of participating BLOGs on the Store BLOG site HERE.

31 Days of halloween - Day 31

Caw, Caw! It's the most wonderful day of the year....

Caw, Caw!!  

 Vincent and I are so excited!  Today, TODAY, is HALLOWEEN!  Yeah!!  It is the bestest day of the year (take that grammar police!)  In honor of it being not only Halloween, Smeared Ink Friday and the last of the 31 Days of Halloween Alex has created a puzzle piece using a great image from the Smeared Ink Quoth the Raven Set. 

For those of you who might not realize it... this is a heart.  Yes, this is what they are truly shaped like.  Obviously, this image is part of the set because of the "other " Edgar's work, The Tell-Tale Heart.

Well, we won't keep you.  We have some candy to eat celebrating to do.  Enjoy the last day of creations and have a fantabulous time (grammar police, you are on my list today....) with the other Wicked Bloggers!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Edgar and Vincent

31 Days of Halloween - Day 30

Happy day before Halloween!!  CAW CAW!!  We are almost to Halloween!!! We made it!!!

Vincent and I both say hello.  I am trying to get him to learn about the puzzle piece Alex has for us today, but can't get him to stop eyeballing the camera.  He keeps saying 'but I know they want to see my face'.  Can you see my level of being impressed?

Ok- onto the creation, this one you are going to love.  Honestly, Vincent should love it so not certain what his problem is - well I am, but pretty certain I would be censured.

I know, right?  The night sky, the jack-o-lantern, even the owl in the tree (although it would be better with a raven, the owl works).  Dang that Alex and her distress ink pads.  She really is getting some inky fingers and having fun.  There has been a big discussion here and she will be continuing the puzzle pieces into November and the assembled project.  However, she may not post daily.  I have also begged to be allowed to continue to host, and......she said YES!!  Only for the puzzle pieces, but hey, I can work with that.  AND NO VINCENT!  CAW, CAW!!!

Have fun checking out the creations from the rest of the Wicked Bloggers (list on the right sidebar) on this second to last day of the 31 Days of Halloween!

Happy Halloween!
Edgar
