Here is one I did with one of the new Whimsy Stamps by LiaStampz and is called "Happy New Year"
She is a great New Years image... but I went with a Congrats card - more uses for me you know? I colored her up with my copies ( Sorry I forgot to snap the photo before I put them up ) I then cut her out with an oval Nestie. The papers are all new ones from Basic Grey called Serenade. Pretty papers, and I love how they all go together. I sewed down a few of the patterns. A piece of tan lace with the teal satin ribbon across it with a bow. I then found a chipboard flourish thingie in my drawer, I used some Vintage Shabby Chic embossing powders for it, then a few mulberry Roses and Martha Stewart branch punches. My "Congrats" is a Sizzix Alphabet Dies - I always forget I have those... need to leave it out on my desk and use them more! Love how they look.
Inside is a simple version of the front.
Was fun to sit and craft for much needed me time. Thinking this weekend will hopefully be more of the same. Suppose to be rainy and cold this coming weekend and New Years... sounds great for crafting. Hubby is talking about fishing - I think that is TOTALLY nuts in a cold rain, but me are not always smart when it comes to their Guy hobbies are they? We won't go into Women hobbies and how smart we approach things. :0)
I'll see you on Saturday for Animals Crackers -
