A little bit about Angela Hunt and Little Darlings Rubber Stamps:

I have been scrapbooking and card making for several years. I started working with rubber stamps that could be hand-colored and, as an adult, I once again fell in love with coloring all over again! I found myself day dreaming about what it would be like to take my passion one step further and start my own rubber stamp line. Through a lifelong friend of mine, I was able to find a fabulous illustrator and my vision was brought to life through my Little Darlings and Cutie Pies characters

I hope you'll join me on this exciting journey. I will continue my search for the best and most fun products that can make your crafting projects even more exciting to make. I will bring them to you right here at Little Darlings Rubber Stamps.

The fabulous prize this week to one lucky winner is a $15 merchandise voucher to the Little Darlings store!!

This week, our challenge is a recipe but one which may be a little different than most. We want you to do "Twos" --

1.) 2 main colors

(other colors in the image or neutrals are fine)

2.) 2 things that start with "T"

(afterall, we are Tuesday Throwdown!)

3.) 2 different ribbons

Robyn's Fetish has generously given our DT members these wonderful digital stamps to use. What great inspiration from Team B this week. You ladies really rock!

Here are the samples made by our team -- that should help get you thinking! ;-D
If you're having trouble figuring out their two "T"s, please visit their blogs. Not only will that give you a closer look but it will give you some great ideas if you're feeling stuck on finding things starting with "T".

Our Guest Designer for April

My name is Kym and my blog is Kym’s Crafty Cards. I started cardmaking about six years ago and although I can’t work many hours due to my health, I decided that the cards that I make I would sell solely to raise funds for different charities. Just before my 5^th anniversary of making cards, I was delighted that I had reached raising £1,600 for different charities. The cards that I make are varied and obviously depend on the customer requirement.

About 2 years ago I got into stamping – rubber and digital - and all I will say is that I am ADDICTED and the rest is history!!! I love the ability to stamp and colour in with different mediums (Copics, Promarkers, Spectrum Noirs, watercolours, cosmic shimmers, distress inks, etc.) and also love the ability of stamping on different papers/card stock to get different effects.

I am truly blessed to be on the Design Teams for: Sweet Pea Stampers, Bearly Mine Designs, Aud Sentiments, and Delicious Doodles.
