Happy Friday, crafty friends! Things are winding down a bit at work. One more Christmas party today and then I can really catch my breath. Then, I can start practicing for all the Christmas services at church. Uff da. This season is tiring!
I'm posting today on the Pinque Peacock blog. I've been wanting to use this gorgeous beaded pearl stick pin for quite some time. So, I designed a card around it. That was a new approach for me!
When in doubt, reach for a Phyllis Harris stamp. I looked through my collection of Unity/Phyllis Harris stamps and decided on "Christmas Surprise" -- tell me what you think...
Isn't that the cutest image? I colored it with Copic markers, did a little paper piecing and fussy cutting on the bow, used some Icicle Stickles on the little girl's hat, matted both the image and the sentiment on DP's, made a pretty bow with 3 Girl JAM London Blue ribbon from the Wine & Jewels Bundle, and added that Bea-u-ti-ful beaded stick pin. Ahhh!
I have nothing else to say about such perfection. That pin is perfect!
I'll leave you with the sentiment from the card, because it's my Christmas wish to all of you:
"May your season be filled with happiness and joy."
This is just the sweetest thing, Julie! Love that PH stamp combined with your pretty bow and stick pin! Happy Friday!!
