Goldilocks

I just LOVE this sweet image from Kraftin' Kimmie.  Her name is Goldilocks.  She's colored with Copics and popped up on a layer of foam tape.

For the background I wanted to create a quilt with paper.  I thought it would go well with the image.  I used the My Mind's Eye Blush 6 by 6 pad and cut 1 inch squares.  I glued them all together and then stamped some stitching with SP & Company's Stitchery Doo set using Hero Arts Chalk Ink in Latte.

I did a little trick to make the kraft border even.  My card is actually 4 and 1/4 by 5 and 1/4.  That way I could work with simple 1 inch squares and still have a nice even border.  No one would really notice unless they set it next to a 4 and 1/4 by 5 and 1/2 inch card, and even so - who cares.  It can easily be put in a regular A2 envelope.  Sometimes a simple solution is best.  Just go with what works and don't over-complicate it :)

I can't wait to send this little sweetheart to someone who needs a hug!

Hope you are well dear visitor.

Hugs Card

Here's a little card to cheer someone up, or just say hello.

The paper is from Basic Grey's Kioshi 6 by 6 pad.  The banner is a Spellbinders die from their Ribbon Banners set.  The sentiment is from My Pink Stamper's Simply Sweet Occasions set.  It's stamped with Rich Razzleberry Ink.

The image is from Kraftin' Kimmie and her name is Charlotte.

I used a Rich Razzleberry marker to make dots and dashes around the purple layer.

The bling is just from the $1 spot at Michael's.

I hope everyone's week is off to a great start :)

Sew Stylish Card

For this card I used the adorable Drucilla from Kraftin' Kimmie.  She's colored with Copics that I attempted to match to the paper I used.

Paper is My Mind's Eye Lime Twist Happy Go Lucky 6 by 6 pad.

Sentiment is from Hero Arts Sew Stylish, stamped in Pretty in Pink Stampin' Up Ink.  It's on a Labels One Nestability that has Bashful Blue Stampin' Up ink around the edges.

The faux stitching was done using a Chocolate Chip Stampin' Up marker.

The ribbon is just random from my stash, most likely purchased at Michael's.

Thanks for visiting today :)
