NEW SET FOR JANUARY -- Hay Hanna

So are you excited for the January stamps yet? I sure am! I hope you have headed over to Hanna Stamps and placed your order!! I am playing catch up with my card posting -- today's set is called "Hay Hanna" which has farm animals and the cutest country Hanna in her adorable cropped shorts (think Jessica Simpson in Beverly Hillbillies). This card was inspired by the sketch on the Card Positioning Systems Blog (Hi Tami *waves*). I loved CPS97!

Just Chicken In
Stamps: Hay Hanna (Hanna Stamps), Chicken In (Elzybells Art Stamps) Paper: Real Red (SU!), More Mustard (SU!), Basic Black (SU!), Solar Crest White (Neenah) Ink: Onyx Black Versafine Accessories: Clear embossing powder (SU!), Red Gingham ribbon (The Paper Studio - Hobby Lobby), Nestabilities (scalloped and plain circles), paper piercing tool, plastic canvas circle, sewing machine, white thread, white gel pen (Ranger), copic ciao markers

How Old??? Birthday card

The idea for this card was in my head as soon as I saw this cows eyes. He reminds me of the movie Bedtime Stories, not because his eyes are too big for him, but just the way they seemed to BUG OUT at me. Anyway, I thought they would look perfect with googlie eyes to make a funny card. The layout for this one came from Splitcoast -- Sketch Challenge 211.

Stamps: Hay Hana (Hanna Stamps), Snap Stamps - Tiny Casual (Karen Foster Designs) Paper: Classic Red Checks - Die Cuts With A View (DCWV), Basic Black (SU!), Solar Crest White (Neenah) Ink: Onyx Black Versafine Accessories: White grosgrain ribbon with black polka dots, 1 3/8 & 1 1/4 inch circle punches (SU!), googlie eyes, copic ciao markers, black thread, sewing machine, dimensionals (Jody's adhesive shares).

Bedazzling Hanna

This last card was inspired by this awesome paper. I was browsing in my local scrap store looking for something different to go with this farm set, and I saw this denim paper with flourishes and thought it was pretty and feminine and would be perfect for Hanna. As I was creating the card and adding flowers and gems I decided it looked like jeans that had met with the bedazzler, hence the name. Pink paper flowers were colored with copic ciao markers to match the color more perfectly.

Stamps: Hay Hanna (Hanna Stamps) Paper: Favorite Jeans (Flair Designs), Solar Crest White (Neenah), Pixie Pink (SU!) Ink: Onyx Black Versafine Accessories: Prima Paper Flowers (white, blue), Primula Petunia Paper Flowers (Bazzill Basics Paper), 1 3/ & 1 1/4 Circle punches (SU!), sewing machine, white thread, copic ciao markers, glue dots, Flat back crystals (Swarovski), clear embossing powder

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 ...

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...
