Happy That's Krafty Thursday!! Ok, ya gotta LOVE this lady right?? Man, she looks so much like me in the morning, it's SCARY... literally!! I even have the same bunny slippers. Bwha-ha-ha-ha! I had been thinking of using Maude for a Valentine's card for awhile now and finally had a chance. Ya, I'm an odd bird, what can I say?
Ok, so I printed the sentiment onto the Classic Crest CS and then used my Stampa-ma-jig to line her up next to it. I colored her with my Copics and sponged some chalk ink around the edges. I matted the image with some SU Real Red CS and stitched both layers onto some white CS that I punched with my SU Scalloped border punch. This DP is from one of my new finds at Michael's last week. It's from K & Company's new Ka-Zoo line. Super cute papers in this collection. I'll be using it even after Valentine's Day I'm sure. The DP is matted with the SU Real Red, Classic Crest White and then stitched onto the SU Kraft card base. I tied on this pretty polka dot ribbon from Taylored Expressions and she's ready to start the day! After her coffee, that is. Now That's Krafty!! Be sure to leave a comment below and let me know what you think of her. Have a great Thursday!!

ReplyDeleteHa ha ha. Lucky for me the stamp doesn't have glasses, so I don't look like her at all! Love the shading - especially on her face and on the robe by the buttons and pocket.
