OH MY GOSH! You won’t believe how wonderful these new images are!!! I’m so totally in love with these precious Emperor penguin chicks. Ok, before I get too carried away, let’s get down to business.
Welcome to the October Angels Landing Blog Hop. If you missed the beginning, head over to Judi’s digi-stamps blog and follow the links. Today the Design Team is introducing two new digital image sets for October, Season’s Tweetings and Penguin Chicks.
I chose to use 2 of the adorable Penguin Chicks for my project.
It’s getting close to Christmas. I know! It seems like we just had it, doesn’t it? Well, I’ve started making each of my daughters a December album each year for them to document the events in their household leading up to Christmas. What better time than now and what better images to use than these chicks?

This is very sparkly in real life. Here are a couple of close ups.
If you click on the photo of the chicks, you can see that their coats are all sparkly with snow (Ranger Distress stickles - Rock Candy).

To celebrate the new releases, I’m offering some Blog Candy. One lucky winner will receive free download links for his or her choice of any two image sets shown in the Digital Stamps Products section of AngelsLanding.com. To be eligible to win, leave a comment on my Blog Hop post before Sunday October 18, 2009, at 11:00 PM Eastern USA time. I’ll use random.org to pick a winner on Monday October 19. Please remember to check back again then to see whether you’ve won.

It’s time for the Our Craft Lounge Blog Hop and blog candy giveaway! I hope you’re ready to be wowed by all the wonderful stamp sets that OCL has come up with for this release. You’ve seen the sneek peaks, now it’s time for the hop and blog candy!
I love, love, love this Purr-fect Wishes stamp set! And I’ve already got 2 of my Christmas cards made! Yippee!!

I used Kazan’s Sketch #32 from 2 Sketches 4 You. (Love that blog and love that Kazan!!) The patterned paper is from the new Graphics 45 Christmas Past collection that I got in my Tim Holtz class at CHA. It’s absolutely scrumptious!! It was cut using my Bigz Top Note die. The image and mat layers were cut using my Labels Four and Classic Oval dies from Nestabilities. The image is colored with Copic markers and I applied Ranger Glossy Accents to the ornament. It’s all topped off with my absolute favorite May Arts ribbon!
Ok, it’s time for the blog candy! I’m giving away this fantastic Purr-fect Wishes stamp set~

Woo hoo! New Kittie Kits!! Can you believe it!!?? How exciting! I had a blast playing around with these cool stamps. The combination possibilities are endless!!

I used the Chicken Coop Scene #7 for yesterday’s card and the Farm Scene #8 for today’s.
Intimidated by the “scene” thing? Don’t be! You don’t HAVE to create a scene with these cool images but if you’d like to give it a try, check out Kittie’s watercolor landscaping tutorial on Splitcoaststampers HERE.
I didn’t try a scene for today’s card. I just wanted to use and highlight this amazing drawing of an old wagon sitting alone in a field.

*****My original post was going to end here, but I just love these wonderful images, so I had to play a little more. As a result I have a bonus card to show you using the sketch challenge SC225 from Splitcoaststampers. Here’s my little Moonlit Cabin using another image from Kittie Kit Farm Scene #8:

It’s time for another Color Throwdown challenge! But this one is extra special!!! We have a sponsor and we’re giving away some blog candy!!
Not too long ago, we reached a milestone….we now have well over 100 followers on our blog! How exciting! So we decided to celebrate by offering some candy and it just so happens that the wonderful crew over at Our Craft Lounge donated some very special prizes for you all to try to win! 2 VERY SPECIAL Easter stamp sets and some Sparkly Fluff!

Also, to thank Our Craft Lounge, we’re using their stamp sets and their signature colors for this week’s challenge:

I chose to use the Just Bugz stamp set. It’s adorable and I know all the grandkids are going to love getting cards made with this set.

I don’t know if you can tell, but the turquoise dotted background is a piece of a printed clear sheet called Mod Circles from Hambly Screen Prints. Too cool! I just love these little bugz!!
Gotta run for now! Come play along with us and you may just win some great blog candy! And be sure to check out all the designers cards by following their links on the Color Throwdown blog!
