A sad farwell! and a SALE you don't want to miss !!!

Hi everyone!

A sad Karin here to say Farewell to There She Goes - I've LOVED designing for them for the past year. I'm to share some inspiration for one of the sets that is still in stock. Did you see that all TSG stampsets are 50% off now???. If not you'd better rush to the store right away before they are all gone. I just checked and the adorable Poppy is still in stock:

Isn't she adorable??? And so much fun to color too!!! First I inked the background using distress ink and then colored her with some Letraset markers. I stamped her twice and cut her out. I saved the face and dress on one of the stamped images and then put the two together again using foam adhesive so that way I gor her to be a bit more three dimensional. I like the result and hope you do too.

Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas and a very happy New Year!!!

 

Hugs, Karin

Yonder star - Christmas Greeting!

Hi!
With only a few days till Christmas I wanted to share a fast and simple Christmas card with you, using a wonderful set called; Yonder Star. The sentiment is from my favorite WMS Christmas sentiment set; Compliments of the Season.
I simply stamped and embossed the star and stamped the sentiment, Before trimming the panel and adhering it to a card base with foam adhesive I had matted it with striped paper. I stitched a frame and then added some Pearls for further dimension.

 

That's all from me for today, wishing you a wonderful Christmas, hugs, Karin
