Mo's Dreamteam monthly blog hop...


Good morning everyone and welcome to this months Mo's Dreamteam monthly blog hop...I'm the first stop this month as it was my choice of theme and I chose Paper Piecing...I love love love paper piecing all that cutting out is so soothing...I have been known to sit in my big craft room chair and nod off I get so relaxed cutting out lol...I chose to use the stunningly beautiful Alisa with Roses for my card, I coloured her with distress inks and had fun cutting out some scraps from my old My Minds Eye - Honey Cake 6x6 paper pad I bought ages and ages ago for her dress, trim and belt


I only had a couple of sheets of paper left in it and thought the colours suited Alisa so much...I finished with a huge chocolate satin bow and a metal friend sentiment, I made the sketch up as I went along but am entering this for the Artistic Inspiration challenge, Clear it out Challenge (my old paper pad) and the Creative Card Crew Challenge too...your next stop on the hop is the fabulous


who is sure to have something stunning to show you...have fun on the hop and don't forget your comments for a chance to win one of the two $5 store credits for Mo's Digital Pencil...
you don't want to miss the chance to do some shopping at Mo's do you


have a fabulous day and enjoy the hop...its supermarket day for me today, yuck I hate it don't you...its not the shopping its the thinking up of all the meals...whatever your up too today I hope its fun

Candida said...

Your card is so adorable! I love this stamp... such a cute little girl.

Sol said...

WOW.. Love the stamp.. And she is so Beautiful Colored!.. I was told that you use digi stamps and color with Distress ink.. I color with Distress Ink too. But I don´t know how to make the print not bleed when coloring.. May I ask what you do?..
I wish for several Digi stamps.. But I am not able to use them yet. I bought one digi once.. But it did not work to heat the printed image, to make it not bleed color when I started to color it.. Do you use a special printer?

Your image is Stunning with your coloring..and her hair looks fantastic.. Love her flowered dress.. and that big bow is Fantastic...

Unknown said...

fabulous calming colours, one of my favourite go to combinations.
Beautiful image coloured beautifully coloured too.
