These Trees are Dancing Just for YOU!

Hello Oddballs!!!!!

Hope everyone is having a great weekend so far!  

This will be our last DT inspiration post from Septembers New Release Stamps....  Featuring the 4 new sets of Dancing Tree images!

Everyday I bring my fur baby Isabelle outside to do her biz and throw the stick around and I am always mesmerized by these evergreens across the road that literally look like they are dancing the way they have grown.    I have often thought how I should paint them one day but when my DT member asked me for some tree images I was immediately inspired to draw the dancing trees across the way............  

I did 4 variations of them, so they don't necessarily need to be for Christmas, they could be colored up in any combination of colors and used all year round.....

I absolutely LOVE what my DT ladies did with these trees and can't wait to see what YOU do with them so be sure to share your makes in the Oddball Art Stamps FB Group and for an opportunity to win some free stamps be sure to drop you creation pics off in our monthly Challenge Album the theme is always "Anything Goes" and the winners get to choose the stamps they win!

As well for even more opportunity to win free stamps from the Oddball Shop you can visit our Challenge Blog  and enter our monthly "Themed Challenge" which just happens to be "Anything Goes" as well this month! You can check out the current "Anything Goes" Blog Challenge HERE.

Our October New Releases will be in the shop in just 2 days time on October 24th and like we did with September, instead of posting all of the DT samples in 1 huge post on release day, instead they will be trickled out a few at a time over the month so you can take it all in a bit easier......I would love to hear what YOU think?  Did you like the way we did September better then 1 big post on release day or do you prefer to see everything at once?   Let us know in the comments below....

 Thank you so much for stopping by,  I will catch you again on the 24th..............  

Til then.......have a crafty good time!

Brand New In the Shop Today......

Hey there Oddballs!  I have 5 new stamps in the shop today #252 - #256.....

I start with #252 which I actually released 2 weeks ago but I hadn't put a tail on her, Fiona wasn't too happy about this so after several days of nagging about her embarrassment for being tailless I finally gave in and Fearsome Fiona got her tail, she's feeling a lot more confident now.....

#252 on Etsy

I am super excited to share with you this years new witch, unfortunately this low res watermarked copy does not do this image justice, she has so much details that can only be seen well in the actual file such as all of the lace detailing inside her hat, her waist, under her dress and boots, riding on her broomstick is also a little spider along with the cat...... I hope you enjoy her as much as I do!

#253 on Etsy 

Brand new to the Oddball Digital Dollar Bin this week I present to you Bed Sheet Ghost, you can grab this little Halloween cutie up for only $1 .....

#254 on Etsy

As per special request for a "Tattooed Girl" I am super excited to share with you Lady Jessie, I think you will agree she is one hot, bad ass, lady!  She is another one that to appreciate all of the detailing you will have to see the actual file with all of her tattoos...

#255 on Etsy

I will try to keep this short lol...... #16 (temp not available) was the first Teddy and she is a girl wearing a fuzzy cat hood and fuzzy boots, you may remember her.  I have never been happy with that stamp but it took me this long to realize what I didn't like, once I figured out that it is how I did the fuzziness of the hood and boots I decided I would fix it up and re-release it but one thing led to another and by the time I finished "fixing her up" she looks nothing, and I mean NOTHING like the original Teddy lol she is brand new completely original stamp now.   So last minute decision this morning I thought I will just make her #256 instead of #16 ( I left the name the same) and try again with fixing up the original #16 and re-releasing her fixed up but still looking very much like the original stamp. lol   I will try to do that for the October 1 release in 2 weeks. In the meantime I give you Teddy Doppelganger...

#256 on Etsy

My DT has been busy creating some really fabulous samples to inspire you and get the wheels turning for ideas, and I am thrilled to show off the work of  1 of my newest DT members in the mix....
