(SSD019)

Sorry I am a little late with this post this morning . . . my excuses are 1) I had to feed a baby  2) I am on the west coast, so it is actually only 9 am here, not so early for me and 3) I had leftover pancakes, strawberries, whipped cream and maple syrup in my fridge which caused me to create an overly indulgent breakfast for myself, but darn it was good!  Anyway . . . 




Stamps:  Chick Chat (Skipping Stones Design)  Paper:  Red with Dots - (American Crafts- The Goods), Let's Pretend - Tea Party (Imaginisce), Real Red (SU!), Solar White Classic Crest (Neenah), Intense Yellow (Prism)  Ink:  Tuxedo Black Memento (Tsukineko)  Accessories:  Sewing machine (Singer), white thread (Gutermann), blue dotted organdy (Hobby Lobby), 1 1/4 circle punch (SU!), long rectangle scalloped nestabilities dies (Spellbinders), cuttlebug (Provocraft), copic ciao markers (Imagination International Inc.)

*****

I cheated varied a little on this sketch!  The sentiment just would not fit at the bottom, so I made it work.  I had fun playing with the chickies!  I love the bright primary colors on this card, I think it would cheer anyone who was feeling sad!  Hope you are out enjoying spring and then stamping at night (when you don't pass out from sheer exhaustion like I do).  See you next week!

As always, be sure to go check out what the other SSD girls have been up to!  They truly rock!!!  Oh and I thought I would post the new release sets so you can see them in their entirety. These both go on sale next TUESDAY (the 13th) and I know you will want them both, so this is your early notice to start skipping the starbucks so you can afford them *wink*  Gotta run, baby is calling . . .

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
