Paper Cuts

On September 1st, My Favorite Things is releasing a new mini-stamp set, Shower Time (so cute!) and their new My Favorite 48, a hand-selected collection of Prismacolor pencils (along with some other goodies).  Check out all the details here.

For this card, I finally broke open my pack of Cosmo Cricket Little Girls paper.  I *adore* the prints and colors in this set!  It has such a “vintage/girly” feel to it. 

I’ve become a big fan of the smaller paper packs and pads, only buying the larger 12″ x 12″ size when that’s the only choice.  This pack is 8″ x 8″ so the prints are scaled down, perfect for card making!  (Check out the Little Boys pack too!!!)

Cardstock:  Always Artichoke, Very Vanilla     Patterned Paper: Cosmo Cricket Little Girls “Tea Party,” “Carefree” and “Secrets”     Stamps:  My Favorite Things “Shower Time”     Ink:  Brilliance Graphite Black     Accessories:  Copic marker (E00), white Signo gel pen, dimensionals, olive narrow organdy   Finished card size:  5″ x 5″. 

For this one, I used Cloud 9 Design Baby Boy dots and stripes.

The umbrella and shirt are paper-pieced as above with the umbrella popped up on dimensionals (as well as the entire focal image).

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

(I got to sleep in my own bed last night and my son slept peacefully through the night.  Wahoo!!)
