This Blog Has Moved

So, I know it's amusingly timed out for April Fool's day, but I assure you it's no prank. I'm not even certain why I haven't always hosted this on my personal domain, but I've decided at last to migrate it. All the old posts and any future posts can all be seen now at my website: Digitallace.net 

There will be no further updates to this blog, so please be sure to follow me over there!

Some Odd Girl Digi Tuesday - Grandpa Feeds the Ducks


 If you haven't seen already, there are two new images in the Some Odd Girl shop! This one is called Grandpa Feeds the Ducks and it's the latest addition to the Grand series. I am totally in love with this card. I had so much fun coloring him and his cute little duckies! The sentiment is from the clear stamp set Renew, and I think it works perfectly with the clear-screened 'Today' embellishment. I love him with the Fancy Pants Park Bench papers and the wee little yellow buttons.

I hope you enjoyed my project today! There is still time to squeak in your project to the Some Odd Girl Monthly Challenge. This month is Pot O' Gold! It goes through the 30th!

SOG Inspiration - Easter Cupcake Toppers

Good morning, Oddies! Alexis joining you here today with a fun inspiration post. For this project, I decided to mush together two of my favorite things. Baking cupcakes and Some Odd Girl images and made adorable cupcake toppers! I had an Easter theme in mind for these, since it's just around the corner, but you could do any theme or holiday with these just by switching out the image. I used Shy Bunny and Eggster Bunny for these and chose some bright spring-colored paper for the backer.

March Inspiration 1

The best thing about this project is that it really couldn't be simpler to make. I used my Zing cutter to make the exact shapes and sizes I wanted, but you can just as easily use your favorite die or punch for the backer pieces. I cut two of the base shape, because I attach that to the other side of the stick so that you can't see it on the back. Just attach your colored image to the top with pop dots and voila! Instant Cute-On-A-Stick!

March Inspiration 2
I hope you try this for your next holiday party or birthday! It's super fun, simple and all your guests will be impressed, I assure you! Then don't forget to post pictures of your awesome creations on our Facebook Group! And if you haven't already, hop on over and sign up for the Some Odd Girl Newsletter!

SOG Digi Tuesday - Strolling Mae & Nurse Kaylee

Another good morning! Today I am bringing you a couple of creations using two new Digi's being released at Some Odd Girl today! The first is Strolling Mae, which bears an uncanny resemblance to our DT Coordinator, the lovely Leah L'Orange. So, I had a lot of fun coloring the adorable image up so that it looked even more like her! I used Cosmo Cricket papers from the Creative Girl 8x8 stack and a couple rub-one and flair.


For card number two, I used the new Nurse Kaylee! This has been a big request over at the Facebook Group, so it was fun to see it come to fruition. Great image for a get well soon card, but I kept it more general using the 'You can fix anything' sentiment from the Steampunk Kaylee set.I like the little heart paper, which looks like the lines on a heart monitor....only a bit more literal. *Snicker*


I hope you all enjoy the new release, and don't forget to submit your projects to this month's 'Pot O' Gold' challenge! See you soon!

SOG Clear Release - Hipster Mae

I'm almost sad to see this release come to an end, but here we are at the last of the Hipster collection with the lovely Hipster Mae! *Twirls her* I gave her cool clip in pink streaks and super cute purple and mint outfit and of course she's got her hip handbag and latte. I imagine her out on the town, taking lots of selfies! *Snickers*

Well, now that we're winding down, how did you like the release? Wasn't it fab? Or should I say, hip? Swing by the shop to pick these babies up, and the festivities are still in full swing over at the Facebook page! See you there!
