Paper Dolls

The new challenge at The Greeting Farm inspired me today. To be the next Farm Fashionista, paper dolls called to me. All of these girls are digis available from The Greeting Farm - Catcher Anya, WS Dressy Ebony, Country Anya, Ballet Anya, WS Audrey, and HG Rain Rain. I printed them all on Make It Colour paper and colored them with Copics. Then I printed each one on digi paper and made a pattened outfit for each one. You can see them laying in front of the paper dolls. All of the digi papers are from JLJ Designs except Ballet Anya's dress, which is from Designz by DeDe.

I made a little book by recycling frozen waffle and granola bar boxes. All of the papers in the book are JLJ Designs. I have a bunch of my digi papers printed out, so I just started using up scraps.
Here's the front. The flap was part of the granola box and it worked just perfectly.
Peanut will be enjoying these paper dolls shortly.

Happy Crafting!

Little Miss Muffet New Release

Barbara has some cuties for the Little Miss Muffet new release this week. My first card features Summer Monkey. I colored him with Copics on Make It Colour paper. I went for a clean and simple layout since I thought this would be great for a little boy's birthday.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

1. iCopic - all about children

2. One Stop Craft Challenge #145 - bold and bright

3. Pile It On #34 - sweet treats

My second card features Paprika. I guess I was on a red and yellow kick. I made my first banner for this card, just cut some triangles free hand. I went with a simple layout again. Paprika is printed on Make It Colour paper and colored with Copics.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

1. Crafts 4 Eternity #33 - at least one flags, tickets or tags

2. CES Challenges #50 - banners, bunting, and flags

3. Cardmad Fairy's Digi Days Challenge #15 - buttons

4. Paper Sundaes #83 - sundae bar - I used buttons, twine, and banner.

5. Crafty Calendar August - hot colors

Squeezed in a Card Tonight

I was able to squeeze in a card this evening. Peanut was happy to color with me, so that makes it much easier. DH and Peanut got me two new Tildas for my birthday and I hadn't had a chance to play with them - Cowgirl Tilda is one of them. Isn't she cute? I colored her with Copics on Make It Colour paper. The papers came from my stash.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

1. Simon Says - use Dawny's sketch

2. Just Magnolia #120 - sentiment

3. Fussy and Fancy 1000 Followers Challenge - Celebrate

Journaling: We went to a pioneer day festival at the park. We thought Peanut would enjoy the activities. She liked starting the crafts, but she wasn't so keen on finishing them. We didn't count on how cold it was that day. She had to keep moving or she became a kid-sicle. So, she started the crafts and I finished them. Together we made a felt gingerbread man ornament, a rag doll, and a clay pendant.

Digi Dare #240 - breakfast

So, when I saw this week's Digi Dare, I thought I would take pictures of us eating breakfast on the weekend. You would not believe what went wrong with a simple pancake breakfast. The good news it makes for great scrapping : )

Heart Journal Week 5

This week the Heart Journal challenge is pieces of me - layering and paper piecing. I was drawn to paper dolls and I found some vintage ones on the internet. I used the scrap pieces of paper that were laying around from my cards this week and made a background and then added the paper dolls.
