HANNA PREVIEW: Pin Up Hanna

Have you been naughty or nice this year? Hanna *may* have been a naughty girl -- posing in her first ever calendar! lol! Hanna has become a pin-up girl. *shock* Don't worry, it's tasteful!!!

I absolutely LOVE this set from Hanna Stamps! I know, I know, I always say that huh? But seriously? What is not to like???

I came up with this Christmas card idea, using Hanna dressed up in santa wear, after hearing that "Santa Baby" song on my cable one too many times. It *may* be my sons favorite Christmas song right now -- he's 4, but every time it comes on he sings along with it -- too funny!!! I think we have heard every possible artist rendition of that song. *giggles*

Here is a close up of the detail on the brads (I colored each of the raised letters using a red copic marker) and you can see the black spica pen on her shoes shimmering a little bit better! The white word "baby" came from some actual baby rub ons that are meant for a baby book, but worked perfectly here!!!

Another idea I had that I thought I would share is creating a small calendar of your own with a Hanna for each season/holiday.

Stamps: Pin Up Hanna (Hanna Stamps) Paper: Paper Pizazz - Green Plaid (Hot Off The Press), Real Red (SU!), Handsome Hunter (SU!), Solar Crest White (Neenah) Ink: Onyx Black Versafine Accessories: Red Grosgrain Ribbon (SU!), The Paper Studio Letter Brads (Hobby Lobby), Deja Views - Wonderful Words Rub Ons (Baby Boy), Making Memories - Christmas Blossoms Paper Flowers - Poinsettia Cranberry, Copic Ciao Markers, Sewing Machine, White thread, Marvy Uchida Liquid Applique (White), Spica Black (for coloring in her glittery heels), 3D Glue Dots.

Here is one more card I made -- a valentine using some of the smaller stamps in the set (lingerie, bubbles etc.) The layout is from Card Positioning Systems (CPS 93). I blended two colors of pink together (copics) to get closer to the shade of pink the paper is. They really do look more perfectly matched in real life (please forgive my poor photography and lighting skills).

Stamps: Pin Up Hanna (Hanna Stamps), Feeling Groovy (Verve Visual) Paper: Solar Crest White (Neenah), Soft Sky (SU!), Metropolitan Collection (Madison Avenue - One Heart, One Mind) Ink: Onyx Black Versafine Accessories: Copic markers, 3D Zots, Pink Brads (SU!), 1 1/4 and 1 3/8 inch circle punches (SU!), 5/8 inch Pink Dots Satin Ribbon (Offray Kaleidoscope), sewing machine, white thread, clear embossing powder, heat tool.

NEED MORE??? Here are some samples from some of the other Hanna DT gals:

My Decade Later Comeback and Playing Catch Up

Hello friends, It's been awhile and I kind of dropped off the face of the planet since moving to Oregon. I got busy with growing four babies into teens, and attempting to hold together a marriage with a partner who was working out of town for the most part. It was a lot! Truth be told, I have been spending most of my time over on Instagram which allows for more quick picture and caption posts (@the.amanda.sewell), but I really, genuinely miss having a journal of our adventures, so I'm back.  Some changes, my ex-partner moved out in October of 2023 (after 23 years of marriage, who would have thought?) and I am on a new, single mom adventure with the fabulous four. Luckily, they are adjusting to the changes well as we navigate this challenging time as a family team. Things are still in flux and hopefully at the end of all of this, the dust will settle and we will end up landing on our feet. Because of this change, I needed to go back to work and after not working for the past lo...

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). Stamps : For the Soul (Hanna Stamps), "God Bless" sentiment by American Art Stamp Paper: Lily Kate - Basic Grey, Neenah Solar White, SU vellum card stock, SU Whisper White Ink : Onyx Black Versafine Accessories : Sheer 5/8th Inch organdy ribbon, Nestabilities (Circle and scalloped circle), sewing machine, white thread, circle of plastic canvas, copic markers, white brads, paper piercing ...

A good mail day

Yesterday was an awesome mail day! I got my swaps from Jody (texasjodylynn). Let me explain, each month, Jody and I swap three things -- cards, 3D objects (usually), and sometimes goodies we find that we think the other person might like. We have done this for about 6 months I think. Well yesterday I got the most amazing Jody package. Here are a few pictures of the stuff inside. The chocolate box was made with designer paper and said "You make life sweet" on top and inside there were some yummy dove chocolates. Seriously, dark chocolate is the BEST! Next I found this most gorgeous purse with some treasures inside it. Some gems and some princess brads, and a harry potter bookmark. The purse itself is amazing. I asked Jody how she did it and she said with chalk and craft inks and lots of embossing powder. It just shines. It is just so amazing. She put in so many brads and she said she even had to use a drill on it. Amazing! I avoid scary tools like drills wher...
