  Hanglar Laundry Girl and a Winner!!

  Posted: November 14th, 2008, 1:13pm PST by Kraftin' Kimmie

  
  Well, I had a chance to play with another one of my precious Hanglar stamps the other day. It was Wednesday....I remember because the sketch challenge was posted on SCS and I actually got to play!!!
  
  I stamped little Miss Laundry Girl on Wausau bright white cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The papers I decided to use for this card were from the Washington Apple dps by Stampin' Up....love 'em. The card base is a 6x6 Riding Hood Red square matted with Bashful Blue. I coloured the image using my Copic markers and I'm actually really happy with the way it turned out.
  
  The sketch is really fabulous and I plan to used it again. I punched the dp out using a square punch and layered them on Pumpkin Pie, added some taffeta ribbon, pop dotted the image and finished it off with some SU buttons and linen thread! Yay!!
  
  
  
  Yesterday was a great day off and I completed several projects that were on my list. I made two 6x6 sb pages for MFT, a card and altered box for Magnolia, I mounted all my new Whiff of Joy stamps and made two cards with those!!! What a productive day!! Now today I have to work 9-5pm....another Saturday, sheesh!! But then I have Sunday off....there are a few things I want to get done around the house, but hopefully I'll get to fit in a little stampin'! Have a wonderful Saturday!!!
  
  OH WAIT!! Did you want to know who won Chimney Sweep Charlie?? Well how appropriate is it that Charly won Charlie???? Hahaha!! Charly, send me an email and I'll mail out your stamp this week!!!

  Dream BIG!!

  Well, I'm up early this morning!! I had PLANNED to sleep in today since I don't have to work....but my dog Daisy, had other ideas!! She thought that I needed to get up at 7:15am so that she could go get a drink!! And now I'm up for the day....
  
  Anyhooooo....today's card features my new Sleepytime Riley stamp, which I won at their release party last month! Isn't he cute?? I made this particular card using a sketch they posted in the Hanna Forum over at SCS. It's a fun and simple sketch...which is perfect for me!
  
  I stamped Riley on Wausau bright white cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The dp I used is from the DCWV Nana's Nursery Baby Boy stack, the card base is Blue Bayou and for accents, I used So Saffron and Almost Amethyst. I coloured Riley in using my Copic markers, cut him and embossed him using my Nesties and pop dotted him. The sentiment is by High Hopes and I stamped it on Certainly Celery and then cut it out using my new Double Ended Tag Nesties and attached it with some mini button brads and finished it off by adding some Prima hydrangeas!!
