You'll Be in My Heart


And...here is my second post for the afternoon! Sorry it took me a while - I decided to go play in the sunshine for a bit with my girls! It is such a BEAUTIFUL day - can't believe it is February. I think it is 60 degrees outside right now, pretty much unheard of usually around here. Anyway, this is for the February MFT Guest Designer Contest - Stamp Your Heart Out. Here is what I came up with:
I think I have said it a few times - and I'll say it again...I LOVE the Pure Innocence line of stamps from My Favorite Things! They are so simple, sweet, and, well, innocent! 
I used papers from Crate Paper's Paper Heart 6x6 paper pad, and paper pieced the image, using copics for the hair, skin, and shoes. The oval was cut with my Creative Memories Shape Cutter.
Made the background by stamping the sentiment multiple times on the pink paper. Inked the edges of everything with Tim Holtz distress ink in Vintage Photo. 
Snuck a tiny bit of lace from American Crafts behind the last layer, then placed it all on the main piece of pattern paper. 
Finished off by pop dotting the oval with the main image, and adding a couple of stick on gems from my stash. 
All right - I think that's all for me today! So glad you stopped by! Hope you are having a beautiful day!
