Hanna's Perfect Package

Greetings - it's Super Bowl Sunday...anyone watching the game? We are and I'm hollerin' here and there; if they would just LISTEN TO ME! LOL!!

Are you happy with the team that won? As I type this, it's halftime and I'm listening to Tom Petty - man, that dude has been around forever eh?

Our oldest attended a b-day party today; she just received the invitation Friday at school so we were scrambling to get a card done this morning. I let our daughter pick the colors, the image and all that good stuff.

A girl after her momma's own heart; isn't anything chocolate and pink scrumptious?

The base card is SU's Ivory layered with SU's DP; then some pink misc. DP I've had forever; I wish you could see more of the words on the pink paper - that top portion really says "it's a girl thing"...just can't see it all.

I stamped Hanna on Ivory paper and used SU's ticket punch for each corner. The package she is wrapping is paper pieced with the same pink paper. The box in the lower left-hand corner is all paper pieced with the brown polka dot paper and the pink paper as the ribbon. I added Crystal Effects to her shirt...can't see it in the photo; but it's a nice 3D effect. I used my new copics to color Hanna - how did I do?

See the two flowers? Yeah, that bottom flower used to be pure white!!! L@@K - it's chocolate now; isn't that cool? The copics made it a nice chocolate color which matched perfectly. Added the pink polka dot flower and a chocolate brad. We finished it off with some peony dew drops from Ellen Hutson's store.

My daughter liked it, so hopefully the b-day girl did to!

I hope you've had a great weekend; thanks for peeking in. Leave a comment to say hello; I always love hearing from you!

Have a great week; hugs, ~M.

Hanna Went Shopping on Black Friday

Hanna went shopping yesterday - Black Friday...did you? I didn't!!! Many people love black Friday, but I've never gotten into it, besides I had to work. Guess it keeps me from spending money - LOL!!

Hanna and her twin went shopping though; look at those sacks!




Here Hanna is decked in a purple little dress and a bit of paper-piecing on the bags; isn't she the cutest thing? I think everyone owns this stamp set but me! I also added some Stickles to her dress and the large Amuse oval to 'ground' her as she walks.


Now here's her twin:



This young lady went to the store and loved it so much, she bought a dress and wore it out of the store! LOL Look at all that paper-piecing! Just wanted to see how much I could do - and actually the original card had even more paper-piecing...but um....bad things happened to that image. :( I edged her dress (bottom, sleeves and neckline) in Chocolate Chip and added Stickles also.

Isn't that what all of you said when you were shopping Friday, "But I need it...". :D

Hanna Stamps new website is up - make sure you check it out; Kristi has done a marvelous job with all the new stamp sets; I really like them! This is the only one I've played with so far, but give me some time!!

AND, look what I found when I woke up this morning..........SNOW:

This is a picture I just took this morning by stepping out our front door - isn't it pretty? It won't last long, the sun is shining and the ground is pretty warm.

I hope you have a superb weekend; thanks for stopping by! ~M.
