Shopping Our Stash #127

Hello dear friends and welcome!  Thanks for stopping by today.  I have a cute card (at least I think it is) for you today!  Our new challenge at Shopping Our Stash is to use something already out on your desk.  What a fun challenge huh?  Let me show you my card and then I'll tell you what goodies were on my table!
 Isn't she a doll?  Oh my!  I do love the Sugar Nellie images at Funky Kits!  I especially love the digital ones because I don't have to wait for them to arrive!!  This little cutie is called Wish Upon A Star.  I colored her with my Prismacolor pencils.  I added Stickles to her wings and tinsel glitter to her cape.  I think she is just so adorable!
 I used a Spellbinders die to cute the image, another die to cut 2 snowflakes I mounted on each other and a new Dimensions embossing folder for the pink panel with snowflakes and swirls.  I added feathers, pearls and rhinestones.  The deep red paper is actually mulberry paper that has been in my stash for probably 8 years.  Yeah, that's a long time!
 I copied the sketch for the writing panel.  I added a swirly paper to the other side.  The color seems slightly off but the swirls were so like the embossing folder I wanted to use it.

Here's another shot and now I will tell the items that were on my stamping table: the image, the embossing folder, and both dies.  Yes, my table was pretty full!  I had lots of stuff to choose from!  That's not always the case.  Usually I clear it off after every card, but this time I had been shopping and not put everything away.  Lucky for me  ;)

Now it's your turn!  Don't clear off your desk!  Find something wonderful and join us this week won't you?

I think that's about it.  Thanks for taking a peek!

Blessings & Hugs,

Michelle

Pretty Sophia!

Hello friends!  This post is so late!!  Something happened to our power line and we lost power in half our house today.  Very strange!  But here I am!

Today I have a card using a new image that I am absolutely in love with!!  I was blog surfing about a week ago and someone had made a card with a new image from Funky Kits.  This little cutie is called Sophia.  She is so lovely!
Look at that face!  I colored this darling girl with my Prismacolor pencils.  I had so much fun coloring her.  It is such a gorgeous image!
 I picked this beautiful paper at Joanns.  It has beautiful glitter snowflakes and tone-on-tone writing.  Just gorgeous!  The blue lace is from my stash.  Very old!  I used the last of it making this bow.  I added silver glitter to my rose and couldn't resist the feathers.  I love those things!  The white snowflake brads were from my stash and I used the last 3.  I added a silver pearl to the middle of each one.  I cut and melted the tulle behind the image.
 This paper was so wonderful I just wanted to highlight in here, I only added a writing panel.
I used the paper on the back too.

I am entering my card in the following challenges:
Top Tip Tuesday - Lovely Layers
Creative Inspirations - Anything + Optional Flowers
The Sugar Bowl Challenge Blog - Anything Goes

I think that's about it.  Thanks for taking a peek!

Blessings & Hugs,
