Are you in love with a little monster?

I’m awfully fond of quite a few li’l monsters myself!

These are such fun to color. I’m still a kid, I guess…I love the coloring part!

Li’l Pink Monster

How do you say “Love You” in Monster?

Apparently the same way as you would in English – or perhaps this little monster is bilingual.

Stamps: MonsterManiacs and World Map
Color Palette: Whisper White, Basic Black, Crushed Curry and Strawberry Slush

MonsterManiacs is a very special stamp set, a winning entry in the In With You contest sponsored by Stampin’ Up! It’s available as a clear mount set for only $14.95 and it’s become one of my favorites.

I sent a few Valentine packages this year – to my own kids and a few others that have a very special place in my heart. You know the kind….kids that for one reason or another just touch you. These kids have worked hard to get where they are, and they’re a long way from home. I just wanted to send them all a little love from home.

RemARKable Monsters

This month’s RemARKable Blog Tour features a pair of stamp sets that don’t get nearly enough attention. These Design Challenge winners aren’t in any catalog so we are giving you a good look today. I’ve featured Spread the Joy a couple of times, so today it’s…

MONSTER MANIACS!

I paired this guy with the greeting from Yippee Skippee – isn’t the look on his face perfect?? These images are really fun to color, and I think it’s because they’re so fabulously whimsical. I mean, where’s the body? And look at those Mickey Mouse hands with only 3 fingers!!

MonsterManiacs is available as clear mounts stamps for $14.95 #134972

Don’t look now, but this is the same card sketch turned on one side and in a different color palette. I crack up every time I look at those crossed eyes! (This image would make an AWESOME preggo card – that middle eyeball gives new meaning to “Mommy is growing a new baby in her tummy”)

I made a tall card for the last one – and yep, the sketch should look familiar. That black ribbon made its first appearance a year ago in the Holiday Mini Catalog, but you can get your hands on it for a few more weeks in the Halloween Banner Simply Created Accessory kit.
