Sending Hogs!

I am back again!  Woohoo!  I have a cute card to share with you today.  I colored up this darling Pure Innocence girl for the newest CR84FN color challenge.  My BFF's daughter spent the afternoon in my craft room while I made her.  I showed her how to die cut and shared all my tips n tricks.  LOL  She sure was a quick study, and she wanted to know how to stitch on the paper and learn the coloring and cutting process.  She will be 13 in a couple months and is already into scrapbooking.  I told her she could come over anytime.:)


I took this close up so you could see her sparkly purple piggy bank!  Too cute, hu?   I finally colored a blonde girl, being a brunette I realized that I kept coloring my girls as such too.  Sweet Jody was kind enough to share her hair color combos.  I was clueless where to start since all I have been coloring for 2 years is flowers.  Ha!  It is nice to have a change/options.  They are fun to color and pick out closes for...kinda like playing dress up with paper dolls, really.


I have a question for you.  Is there anything that you want to see on my blog that I don't already show/share?  Like more info on supplies or how I do something?  More personal/ less personal stuff shared on my blog?  I always enjoy your wonderful comments, but I am open to opinions.

    Your card is so cute. And I like the blonde. I had to giggle a little when you said you do most of your hair colors in brown. I do mine in blonde. kinda funny. I love your blog just the way it is.. I won't change a thing...

    Hugs~

    Oh how I LOVE this PI girl....so stinkin' cute! I was "this close" (lol!) to buying the VIP kit last month JUST to get this stamp, but I decided to wait for it to be sold individually. Can't wait to get her!

    Love your card! Such pretty papers, great sewing, and I love her colored with blonde hair. :)
