HANNA PREVIEW: BASEBALL MINI

I have had this idea floating around in my head for weeks since I have had this set -- a water bottle gatorade holder -- you know, for when you are sweltering hot at the big game (have I mentioned we have been over 110 degrees F for 17 days in a row???) I wanted it to be simple enough to duplicate lots of times if you were making it for a team, but at the same time, fancy enough to look cool for a design team item. I finally managed to finish it tonight.

I think I may have erred on the side of too fancy pants -- the stitching *might* have been a bit much (but seriously, how can I resist the stitching -- I am in love with stitching on my projects -- it is SO simple but adds so much). I also think the ribbons on the top might have to be left out if mass producing, but they are cute. Anyway, hope you like her! *giggles* This set is available NOW on the Hanna Stamps site (http://www.hannastamps.com). Kristi also has some other sales running right now, so it is a perfect time to do a little 4th of July shopping! Have a wonderful and safe holiday weekend!!!

HANNA PREVIEW: For the Soul

This set is totally cool! I have not seen anything like it! I think it is perfect for a sympathy card, a thinking of you, a little hand out at church, maybe even for cards at Easter (thinking ahead here) etc. It is so CUTE! Hanna looks so angelic and well, to be completely honest, reminds me of my little sister (not sure why). I used the sketch at Card Positioning Systems (#83) for the layout. I was going for a "touched by an angel" look on the main image (and I think I kind of created that.) I used vellum to overlay the image to give it that glossy fuzz (soft focus).
