Sweet November - Elsie

It's day two of May Sweet November previews of the Garden Gnomes collection. Today we are featuring "Elsie."

After stamping Elsie, I colored her up with Copics trying to make it appear that she was bathed in sunlight and then I fussy cut her out.  I paired her up with some old Sweetwater patterned papers, a favorite from my scrapbooking days. I used several new C.C. Designs Cutters, the Fence and Grass and Flower borders to create a scene. I added the doily in the background for a bit of frilliness and the metal badge from the same paper collection to act as the sentiment.


Products: Sweet November stamp, C.C. Designs Cutters, Sweetwater dp and badge, Wilton Doily, PTI Woodgrain Impression plate, Copic Markers
Copics: Skin-E0000, E01, E11, R20; Hair-E21, E35, E25; Bonnet/Dress/Shoes-Y0000, Y11, Y15; Apron-B0000, B21, B23, B26, C1; Watering Can/Flower stems-YG0000, YG13, YG93; Flowers-B41, B32, B45

This collection will be available for purchase at the All That Scraps store Thursday, May 3 at 8 pm CDT. Be sure to also click on over to my fellow design team member Marion and also to our special guest designer Kadie. Amy, the Sweet November artist has a card to share with you and also outlines the details on how to win some blog candy which includes the stamp we are all using today. All you have to do is leave comments on our various blogs.

I hope to see you back here tomorrow for another Sweet November preview. I will also have a C.C. Designs preview later on today.

    LOL, I know that I still have some of those Sweetwater papers hanging around and now you've got me wanting to go dig them out! I love how bright and sunshiny this card is with the mix of blues and yellows and your mix of dies with the texture added to the fence is so amazing! :)

    Hi again Nancy, As you can guess I have finally gotten five minutes to check out everyone's blogs tonight and I am so glad that I did. Like I said before your card is just fantastic. I love how you make such beautiful cards but they don't seem cluttered in anyway while they really just drawl the person into them. lol. Hugs, Lisa G

    Love all of the layers on this card - the doily, punched fence, flowers, etc.
