SWEETPEA DT INSPIRATION

I haven't got a project to share with you but I do have a couple of images coloured by my Niece a while ago and now hanging on my Fridge/Freezer.

This first one was probably done when she was 4 years and the later one was done a little while later.  She's now 5 years old and her colouring amazes me as she is very good at colouring within the lines.  I didn't have a Sweetpea image to share of her latest colouring but the reason I thought I would share it to show how young children don't have the restraints we have when colouring they don't spend alot of time deciding what colours work best together etc.  I love her freedom to use any colour and just enjoy.

Stamps:  
1   Elisabeth Bell's A Warm Fuzzy Hug and Be My Valentine - available here
2   Victoria Wade's Snow Buddies - available here

Best wishes,

You tug at my heart strings

You tug at my heartstrings. Doesn't this image? I know she does for me. She's just the cutest! That's one of those images that I can look at and just immediately know that artist Elisabeth Bell is the creator. Sweet Pea Stamps just came out with this stamp, called "A Warm Fuzzy Hug" and there's three new stamps that are being released this month from Elisabeth Bell (Click here).
Here's a closeup of the image, colored with copic markers

She just makes me think back to all those times when I was a little kid hugging a teddy bear or often a blanket or pillow. The paper used on this card is a shimmery flocked paper from Heidi Grace. I added an additional layer of thickness to it by using some AC Metallic paper. Be sure to check out the wonderful new stamps from artist Elisabeth Bell at the Sweet Pea store. You can also check my blog for some great Sweet Pea stamps being given as blog candy.



One more project to share today, here's one of the newer stamps that artist Rebecca Sinz just released. It is part of a 4 piece set, sold individually or as a sheet of stamps, this image is called "Seasons Summer" (Plate #200). If you check out the artist's coloring on this image and then see mine, you can see how versatile this image is. I think of this coloration of the stamp as more of spring inspired version.

I tried to add a lot of bright and vibrant colors to her and to the card. She's just a stunning image, I feel it hard to do her justice. Be sure and check out the other stunning stamps in the Seasons series from this artist.

I hope this inspired you to go make some fun and playful cards as well as some beautiful romantic type cards.

Cheers, Holley

A Warm Fuzzy Hug

Hi dear Sweet Pea lovers! Here is another one of those cute little new stamps by Elisabeth Bell. When I saw this cute image for the first time I knew I have to create something in spring colours. I coloured this sweetie called 'A Warm Fuzzy Hug' with Copics. She is on pre-order now. The background papers are Websters Page. 

Here's a close-up of the image

I wish you a magical day!

Hugs, Karina
