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

Angel paperdoll

Hope you've had a fantastic new year, all ready for more inspiration and new releases from sweetpea stamps. This time I have gone all out, hoping to get your crafty fingers itching. Time to long for spring :)

The stamps I have used are from ching chou kuik plate 33. Sayings for the arms and legs are from different sheets. The images are colored with promarkers and watercolor pencils. The edges are inked with different distress inks. The doll is cut out in white paper and heavier designer papers for the back and wings. The images for the skirt are masked. I made the pattern for the doll myself. For the top and skirtpart I used 3D tape - thicker for the skirt. The joints of the legs and arms are attached with brads. I made sure the back was as beautiful as the front in case it would hang in a window or similar so I added matching little flowers for the joint's backs. I also added some pretty organza ribbon for the hem and top of the dress.

The doll is about 10" (25cm) tall and you can bend the joints. Hope you liked it!

KISSED BY AN ANGEL

What a fabulous stamp! This is one of Connie Fong's new stamps available singularly or as a stamp plate of four. To take a look at all 4 designs click here.

I have to say I just loved colouring this image called KISSED BY AN ANGEL. As many crafters are finding it has been difficult to get back into crafting after the Christmas break but I have to say I had no trouble with inspiration for this one!

My photo tent and lights have arrived and I am still practicing the get the look I want. Haven't quite got the setting right but will keep trying and let you know what I came up with.

Best wishes and wishing everyone good health for 2012
