Annie

The extended weekend over the 4th allowed Sherri and I to get together and make cards Saturday and Monday. Great fun. We have our own little DT consisting of Sherri, her cat and me.  Sherri made 3 and I made one. The woman is fast and talented. Here is what I made.



This is Annie. She is one of the front and back series from Art Impressions.  She was colored with Copics. Since her clothes were suggested sailing, I thought I would have her looking from a port hole.  One I had her colored, I traced a Spellbinders die to make the port hole and colored it with grays. I also used a Spellbinders die to cut her out and mount her on DP from My Mind's Eye.  Sherri had given me those fabulous die cut corners a long time ago, so I can't tell you which Company. I did have to scold her, because I could only find 3, so this was my solution. The sentiments are as follows:  "Miss You" and "sending you smiles across the miles" are Paper Trey Ink and "Happy Birthday" is Stampabilities. The flowers on the inside are Penny Black.  


Check out Sherri's blog here to see what the other half of our two person DT made.

I love this so much! The corners were Spellbinders, by the way. The inside is gorgeous too! Love it!
