Hoppin Good Time

It's Wednesday again and of course that means it is time for another Royal Wednesday Hop for Queen Kat Designs Stamps!

You should have hopped here via Shannon's Blog and if not, you should start at the beginning on the Queen Kat Designs Blog.

Now, on with a creation...This week we are featuring a 'special project' and the project that was picked was a 'box'.....hmmm...I said.....and then I remember that I had a few of the premade matchboxes...so I whipped one of them out and then I found that I had already colored Tilly in the perfect colors! (she is actually purple and matches the box/ribbon perfect....sorry for the bad photograph!)



I'm not one that is used to doing 'boxes' but this was super easy and fun...and my daughter, Lydia has already claimed it....she LOVES the WIS stamps!

So...now on to more goodness and hop on to Penny's blog to see what she has in store for ya! Thanks for joining us and drop us a note to tell us what you thought!

Annabelle Fun



So this weekend (well Thursday through Saturday at midnight!!!) I got to go to a 3 day crop! Wooohooo! That was sooo much fun...

Can you BELIEVE that most of the folks were only scrappin???? They were hardly making cards at all! I just couldn't believe my eyes...ha ha ha....they just don't know do they?

So I pulled out a piece of chipboard that was shaped like a mushroom and saw some cute cards done by my friend (well, she was making cards with me...so it wasn't totally unheard of...but out of 250 women it was only a handfull of us!). She had taken a shape and made some cards with it, so I decided to lift the idea.

I stamped my image first, then centered the shape over it, traced and cut out. Then I just put a small crease at the top and glued them together....then I got to playing...what to do what to do....I just started coloring away. I wanted Annabelle to have clear wings so after I had the outside colored I used the glossey accents on the inside (you can't tell that well on the pics, but it is a cute effect!). After that she needed more....

So, I added the little butterfly using a little bit of wire to 'spring' at the top! It is sooo cute! This picture just does not do her justice!



And of course I used one of the new sayings stamps for the sentiment...

Now, if you want to see more of what I accomplished this weekend you'll have to come back tomorrow! I'll put more of it up! I did 8 layouts and 4 cards and I LOVE them all!
