Wonder and Joy
Ok... I'll say it... I think this is the ca-YOOT-ist image so far from TAC's pre-release bundle for the upcoming Serendipity Magalogue (aka Spring Maggie)! There were a ton of stamp sets, but I'm tellin' ya'... this set is a MUST HAVE for anyone who likes to paper piece or color.
I fussy-cut a sheet of Mimi dp to make it look like little Miss Joy is perched on a flowery pink vine in the middle of imaginative garden. Freakin' adorable, right?! I KNOW! Check out those rosey cheeks and the look of wonder on her face.
You can't really see in the photos, but I used pink & green glitter pens on her hair ribbons, cuffs of her pants & the bottom edge of her dress.
Stamps: Wonder and Joy (coming soon!)
Paper: More Mimi double-sided dp, White UltraSmooth, Mimi & Mia's Cottage cardstocks
Ink: Palette Noir
Colorant: Prismacolors with mineral oil blending
Other: Cloud Scissors, Pop Dots, sheer pink ribbon
Why yes... it DID take some time to cut her out... thanks for asking ;) The ol' craft knife had to come out for this one... but o-so-worth-it. Pop dots are a wonderful thing. I think I'm gonna keep this card for myself :)
What do you think?
