Pink Persimmon

When witches fly...

Witch, Witch

Witch witch, where do you fly?
Under the clouds and over the sky.

Witch, witch, what do you eat?
Little black apples from Hurricane Street.

Witch, witch, what do you drink?
Vinegar and good red ink.

Witch, witch, where do you sleep?
Up in the clouds where the pillows are cheap.

 

Lottie was stamped on plain muslin and then sewn into a cute little witch.  Is she a good witch, or a bad witch?  We may never know....

 

Happy Halloween! 

Trick or Treat

Who wouldn't want a cupcake treat with a pumpkin on top?

Melissa Frances Art Swap

Pink Persimmon was honored to participate in an artwork exchange with Carolyn Peeler, Sr. Creative Director for Melissa Frances.  Judi met Carolyn a year ago at SilverBella and had a great time in her ATC card holder class.  We just love the vintage style of Melissa Frances products and how well they work with Pink Persimmon stamps.  They have a full line of Scrapbooking products and some really unique items as well. Their papers are beautiful and they have wonderful vintage style resin frames and appliques that are so fun to work with.  Their Vintage Colonial House is a little chipboard house that is to die for!!! Take a look at the Melissa Frances website here: www.melissafrances.com 

Carolyn is a very talented artist and she has created some lovely cards combining our companies products. We just love her style and what she has done with our stamps. (Click on the photo if you would like to see a larger image).

You can see the projects Judi has done over at the Melisaa Frances blog.  Here's a little sneak peak of Judi's projects.  Go over to their blogs to see the full projects!

Judi has used our new Christmas Stamp Sets (Released Today!) in her projects and lots of other Pink Persimmon stamps, too!

 

 

Think Pink

We are winding up the contest over at Cookin' Up Creations and wanted to share what some of the Creative Team members came up with when we challenged them to make something that you would give to a girl friend and it had to have the color pink and a stamped image. 

 

Julie Detlef made this cute card with the Small Banner Set.  Perfect for a friend who needs a bit of cheer in her mailbox. 

 

Kelly Schimer made this beauty with the You're a Jewel set.  I just love how Kelly made the stamp image and the center of each flower shimmer.  Here's a closeup of the flower ribbon:

 

And another little gift jar by Kelly that also uses the You're a Jewel set:

More Pumpkin Fun

Not to be excluded, our Little Red Wagon girl went to the pumpkin patch too and came home with her own halloween decor.  She didn't want her brother to be the only one to get some pumpkins this year!

 

Samantha Sibbet designed this cute Halloween Gift Bag with the Little Red Wagon set, the Small Banner Set, and Carnival Alpha (small) as well.  We just love how versatile the banner set has become for any holiday.  Here's a close up of the banner in Samantha's gift bag.

Pumpkin Fun

Have you been to the pumpkin patch yet?  This little guy looks like he is returning home with some Pumpkin Fun! What a sweet Halloween card.  

 

Kelly Schirmer created this card with the Little Red Wagon set.  She stamped the boy on patterned paper and cut out his shirt and then again on black cardstock and cut out the pants.  The rest of the image is stamped on watercolor paper and colored with Martha Stewart markers and a watercolor brush.  Patterned paper is from Cosmo Cricket and cardstock is from PaperTrey Ink. 

Kimberly Crawford on The Scrap Review

Before Kimberly joined our Creative Team, she was actually assigned to do a review of our stamp sets on The Scrap Review where she is a staff reporter.  I haven't read the review yet (I am pre-scheduling this post because I am away on a school field trip for the day), but she did send us a sneak of some of her card samples.  Hop over to The Scrap Review and see what she had to say about our stamps. (I hope she liked them!) 

Here are two of her designs that she made for the review.  

 

Thanks Kimberly!  These are really cute cards!
