Mimi with Lantern…

Pam Sparks28 Comments

 fa la la la la!

I used Mimi from Penny Black and pattern paper from a Christmas pad by Little Yellow Bicycle.  The little white cardinal brad is from Making Memories,  the JOY border punch is from Martha Stewart,  the border around the blue rectangle is a Fiskars border/corner punch, the little buttons are from Lasting Impressions and the music notes are a punch from All Night Media.  I did some backstitching in the holes of the scallops of the rectangle with Coats and Clark’s button/carpet thread (JoAnns).

Mimi is stamped on Papertrey select white card-stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Sketch Markers. Hair – E30, 23, 25, 27, Skin – E000, 00, 21 and diluted R20 for cheeks, Coat & earmuff band – R24,  59, E07, Ear muffs & mittens – YG91, 93, 95, 97,  Boots – W3, 5, 7.  Frosted Lace stickles here and there.  The falalala stamp is from Impress rubber stamps.

Day #4 April Release…

Does she make you laugh?  She makes me chuckle…she looks sweet but kinda on the tough/tomboy side of sweet!  Like…  my mom made me dress up and hold this balloon! lol  Meet Little Loli,  one of two new images from the Love Lolita line by  CC Designs and available Sunday, April 3rd at All That Scraps.com, HERE.

I stamped her on PaperTrey Ink white card-stock with Memento Tuxedo Black dye ink and colored her with Copic Sketch Markers.
  • hair – E50, 41, 43, 44, 47, 49
  • skin – E000, 00, 01
  • cheeks – R20, 21, 22
  • eyes – E23, 25, 27
  • dress, socks, shoes – R20, 21, 32
  • ground and shadow – W0, 1, 3, 5

I created the card and paper pieced her heart with the Hazel paper pad.  The sentiments are from parts of two stamps inked up with Versafine and stamped with the stamp a ma jig. I like to use the little square Versafine stamp pad for this… it’s really easy to get in and ink up just what you want!  Flowers are from Hero Arts with Bazzill Bitty brads in the center, that I colored with Copic marker R21.  The pink flower layer is the EK Success small Retro Flower punch.  For the corners of the scallop rectangle nestability, I used some old Making Memory button brads and colored them with Copic marker R21 too.  I used a regular nestability and cut her out of the box.  The cute little banner cuts at the top and the bottom are from a NEW CC Designs banner die set the gals will be showing tomorrow and will be released Sunday, April 3rd too.

Below are the links to the products I used on this card… hope you find it helpful… it looks nice but I’m curious what you think!  Christine has been busy adding lots of new in the store,  HERE… stamps, paper pads… lots!!!

Have a great weekend! Looks like Spring! ttul!

Oh NO!  I feel a song coming on.. “it had to be YOU”! lol   Another great set by Amy R. from CC Designs, called “All About You“.  I got this card finished and immediately thought of some other ideas I could have used!  So… down the road…there will be more of these!  The “it’s a celebration” stamp is from the “It’s Your Birthday set” in the store HERE.  I love all these word sets! You can be so creative in mixing and matching them up with each other!  The brackets dies are coming!!! Part of the April release, in the store April 3rd HERE!

I used the My Minds Eye Hattie 6×6 paper pad, in the store HERE.  Stamped the words with Versafine Onyx Black ink, the post card paper is a few years old, from Making Memories and the banner is an old, old, OLD triangle punch from Emagination Crafts… see,  I told you!  OLD! lol  I glued the triangles to a piece of SU card-stock with Mono Multi glue, in the store HERE (my favorite glue ever) and then cut two sides with the Fiskars mini pinking decorative edge scissors.

What else is new?  LOTS!  new Stamping Bella images… new Wild Rose images and papers…in the store HERE and the list of what’s NEW is HERE.   I almost forgot!  Christine has added to the clearance section too,  HERE!
