Crafty Sentiments Designs new release blog hop



Good morning everybody,

I was contacted a while back by Suzette, the owner of Crafty Sentiment Designs, with an invitation to be one of her guest designers for an upcoming release. Though I normally have to say no very often to invites like this I had been tempted to try one of the Crafty Sentiment Designs images before since I had already seen some gorgeous samples with them by blogging buddies. So since I still had plenty of time before the new release I decided to join in.
I'd like you to meet a new character from Crafty Sentiment Designs, this gorgeous lady is named Isobel and this particular stamp/digi is called "Off to the Ball", she will be in the Crafty Sentiments store with 9 other images from the 22nd of August. I decided pretty early that I wanted this pretty lady to be a red head and when I decided that I wanted to use this pretty design paper that I bought at a craft fair last year (I've cut off the strip with details so can't tell you what line it is) the rest of the materials followed from that. The pretty Lace Doily Corner 1 die and the Lace Doily Border 1 die behind the strip of paper are both Whimsy Stamps. I've used two Spellbinder Peony die cuts behind the image and cut wholes into one side of the new shape created and tied different kinds of ribbon from stash through that. The gorgeous products by Wild Orchid Craft are:
Mixed Colour Cherry Blossom Stem Flowers
Mixed Pink/White Chrysanthemums
Mixed White/Cream Carnation Flowers
White Sweetheart Blossom Flowers
Star Shaped White Pearl Beads
And if you do go to the ALL NEW Wild Orchid Crafts store be sure to check out the gorgeous new products!!
A close up of pretty Isobel, as always colored with Copic Markers and completely 3D paper pieced. The colors that I used are:
Skin: E11, E00, E000, E0000
Hair: E39, E08, YR27, YR16
Aqua color: BG18, BG15, BG53, BG11, BG70
Brown accents: E57, E55, E53, E51, E50

And a picture of the little pieces:
Hope you like my card, there are more stops to the hop today, so please enjoy and be amazed:
Have a great day everybody!!

  14. I am AMAZED at how many little pieces you cut out and used on this image. This card is fantastic! I would be hard pressed to give it away. I would, but it would be for someone special who would truly appreciate all that you did. :) Beautiful work!!
