Connie-Sexy Goth

I've been anxious to work with this gorgeous image by Sweet Pea Stamps 

artist Teresa Sherman

from plate #177 titled

"Sexy Goth"

ever since I first got her.

Today is just cold enough outside to justify being indoors here 

so I took full advantage of the weather!

Supplies:

SP image by Teresa Sherman plate 177

Nesties "Labels 14"

flourish die by Memory Box "Elegant Scrollwork"

flower die by Magnolia "Doohickeys"

small brads by Oriental Trading Co.

small hole punch-McGill

glue pen by Zig

corner rounder by Creative Memories

dp by DCWV "Mariposa"

Copic markers/airbrushing

white paint by Copic

**TIP:  when you need a thin border around a diecut and do not have

or want to buy another whole set just trace around the outside edge

of the die you are using and cut that out by hand, layering

beneath your diecut.  It makes a much cleaner edge than 

using a bigger die (which gives a border too wide IMO)**

You Rock my World!

Here's a wonderful stamp from one of the newest artists at Sweet Pea Stamps, Teresa Sherman. This stamp is called "Sexy Goth" from Plate #177. Isn't she a beauty? I knew I had to get this stamp to make a beautiful card for my husband.I colored her up in a hot red dress and added some stunning ribbon from Turkey that is embroidered and has wonderful sequins sewn into it. Then I added some great felted paisley embellishments that black with red stitching. Finally I added a great saying "You rock my world." from Plate #15. The adorable embossed cutout that I used for the saying is one of the newer Spellbinders Nestabilities. Do you think my husband will get the message from this creation?

Have a great day!
