Merry Merry Quite Contrary.....

This is a super awesome image by Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!! I bought this image at her Krafty Day in September-it was a blaasttt!! She is a super sweet girl with a really fun and energetic DT!!!
Anyway this is my fav image from her Christmas collection and her name is...you guessed it....Merry!!

I made this little beauty for lovely Kristas challenge- Funky Fibers-notice the hemp fibers!!I had my image coloured to match my paper and left it for a week, then I saw Kristas challenge so I thought that would be a great time to pull out my hemp string!! So it kinda has this vintage country feel now and I really like the way she turned out!!Again, another copic creation sponsored by Melanies copics-hehe-xoxo mel!!!

Well, I feel that I just may be converted over to the Copic side from my Tombows-as much as I enjoy the water-colours, when they cooperate, I haven't been nearly as frustrated with the copics!! Weird eh?

Well ladies I'm off for now,but there's lots more where this came from!!Haha :)

The Town Scrapper- Antoinette

Hey....I'm finally back....an yes I am alive! I know it's been a while since I have posted anything but I needed to take a bit of time off around Christmas.....there was just too much going on!

Now January is finally here, so I can post my FIRST card for The Town Scrapper!!

Here she is....Antoinette!!!

The image, BoBunny button set and My Minds Eye paper can all be purchased at The Town Scrapper in Petrolia....such a short drive for all the beautiful stamps, papers and embellishments you will find in Phebe's store!!!!

This card is made with a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp from the Moonlight Whispers collection and her name is Antoinette!! She is sooo cute!!!!!

The patterned DP that the image is mounted on and the background squares are from My Minds Eye -Free Bird "Love" set. The solid paper in the background is from DCWV.

The Buttons are from BoBunny Buttons and Bling in Tis' the Season set. The ribbon I had on hand, and the sentiment is by Kolette Hall. I coloured the image with my tombow water colour markers and added some Frosted Lace Stickles to the hem of her dress and her ear muffs. The scalloped circle behind the image was cut using a Cuttlebug and I used some Glossy Accents with white flower soft to give the affect of snow flakes....it may be a little difficult to see it though!!

I LOVE this image....she has just the right amount of whimsy and is still festive which works great for those winter birthdays, anniversary's or just to say thank-you!!

Thanks for stopping by to take a peek!!
