Happy Thursday! Even though I was hoping to stamp the better part of today, I’ve had a few set backs. One of them being – I’VE GOT NEW STAMPS, WOO HOO!
I checked out the Ways to Use it Challenge on Splitcoast this morning and its pocket cards. I love to make these, and couldn’t wait to get started. But first, I had to run a few errands so that my day would be free. I got home, started working on the challenge, and was actually half way done. There was a knock at the door and guess who it was – the mailman! He had my new Lizzie Anne Design sets. Well of course, I had to abort the project I was working on and put ink to new rubber!
So, here’s a little sneak peak of one of the new sets being released on September 10th, High Hopes. I have a feeling this card will be making its way to a certain college freshman who is away from home.
The actual card is Pretty in Pink, and I stamped So Swirly in Regal Rose. The polka dot patterned paper is sewn to the front and the inside on the sewing machine. I sewed the ribbon under the front piece and over the inside piece. In order to get the card to close, I raised the image panel on dimensionals so that I could run the ribbon from the inside under the panel. Both images, the one on the front and the one on the pull out card, are colored with Copic markers.

This is divine, Sherry! Yummy!! You so inspire me to make something all pretty and girly like this. Love the pink and black. Of course, if you made an earthy card then I’d be all inspired to make something earthy. I guess you just inspire me, period!
I love pink and black together!
Awesome pocket card!! I love those colors, and that new set looks so fun! Your sewing and doodling looks wonderful as well!
