My Favorite Things…a sneak peek

FS1Hey there!  I hope you all had a great weekend!  It was gorgeous here, but it is COLD this morning!  BRRRRRR…..
My Favorite Things has three new releases November 1st, one of which is this set, By the Seashore.

I colored this image using Copic markers.  I’m still practicing my background shading so pretend it’s a nice, clear day.  🙂  The hat is cut out and popped up for some added dimension and I used a deckle blade in my Fiskars Rotary cutter to get that ripped edge look.  I love being able to switch those blades for different edges.  And I haven’t cut myself again so that’s a plus!  🙂

This one is super simple.  The “hat stand” is actually the fancy little arrow thingy from the Boho Blossoms set.  As above, the hat is cut out and popped up.  I cut out the little flower too.  It’s raised on a balled glue dot.  The color combo was taken directly from the ribbon.
