It's been awhile since I have been able to play along with the Whiff of Joy Challenges. When I saw Katharina's sketch this week, I knew I had to play along!!
I pulled out one of the images from the Summer Stamp Kit designed by Elizabeth Bell...
Click on the pictures for a larger view.
I used Willow Dreamy with Flowers for my image embossed in black and watercolored with Twinkling H2Os. The DP is all from a retired SU pack, except the red gingham DP which is DCWV. The cherry ribbon is from a local store. The charm, pearl brad, and spacers are from Hobby House. I also used some primas and a fiscars apron border punch.
Here is the sketch I used...
And here is a closer look at Willow...
Have you seen the news at Whiff of Joy? Here's a sneak peek at the new Fall Stamp Kit!!
Preorders will begin on July 17th - Aug 7th and will ship on Aug 21st. If you purchase the kit, it will be a savings around $40 US compared with buying each individual stamp separately!! That's an awesome deal! Don't miss out!
I am making this short today. We have so much to do before our move next week. Not packing, though...the movers will do all of that!! No, I mean visting with friends before we move :-( I have chosen not to say good bye to anyone....apparently I am in denial!! But the day will come...all too soon...and I will have to say goodbye to some really great friends.
Today Ansley is going over to her teacher's house to bake cookies!! Mrs. Scheff likes to play "chef" with the kids so she wanted Ansley and her friend Ashleigh to come over for a bit. I am currently making Scripture pop-up balls for Mrs. Scheff's daughter's wedding!! I will have pictures of those soon...but I am still working on them. I hope to have them done before we move so I don't have to ship them to her. It's only 20, so it's not THAT hard to do! I think they are coming out really well.
Anyway, that's it for now. Thanks for stopping by! Happy Stamping!
