CELEBRATE HB2U TODAY

Hello  Patricia here and  it's my turn to host the Whimsy Stamps Inspirations Blog and I would love to share this cute image by Elizabeth Bell Called Polka Dot, She's available to purchase from the Whimsy Stamps Store , She was part of the June release, I just love all the Elisabeth Bell images don't you? If you went to CHA and you visited the Whimsy Stamps Booth you might have seen this card along with others I sent with Janette who was fortunate enough to go to CHA and meet Denise and other Designers.



Polka Dot was colored with Distress Reinkers, no stitching on this card. The needle from my sewing machine had split in half. It lasted quite some time,and finally gave up. I have never stitched on fabric all paper lol!



A close up on the image, I just love her sweet little face!! My sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps the set Simple Sayings Notables 5, this set is part of the July Summer CHA release! Thanks for peeking!

Tweetest Friends

Hi everybody!!

You may have already seen this project on my blog or on Facebook but just thought I'd share it here as well. I needed one more teacher gift so I decided to make another Slip Cover box as these are super quick to make and decorate it with Tweetest Friends by Little Cottage Cuties from Whimsy Stamps. This means I'll have two of these boxes to give to the teachers, the other one being THIS one with the Flower Fairies I did earlier.
The image was actually pretty challenging to 3D paper piece but I do like how it turned out. The pretty design paper I used is by Maja Design and it's from the Vintage Spring Basics line. I used purple and white cardstock and I embossed the white decorative layer with a Birds and Swirls Cuttlebug Embossing Folder. The pretty decorative die-cut behind the image is of course cut with the largest Spellbinders Floral Oval Nestabilities.
A close up of the pretty image.  As always colored with Copic Markers (sorry... forgot to take down the colors again :( and 3D paper pieced. I decided not to paper piece the little flowers.
And the little pieces the image was made of.

Hope you like my project. Have a great day everybody!!!

Hugs,

I Do
