Seasonal Friends

Hi All,

Ive been playing with the Crafty Secrets set called Seasonal Friends.  I've really had fun coloring these images. The girls in this set are all dressed appropriately for each of the four seasons.  I think this stamp set would be great for making a set of cards as gifts. 

She looks just like a Southern Bell.
Here are the Copics I used. I am finding it easier to take a picture of the Copics instead of listing them one-by-one!
All other supplies are listed here.

I have a few more cards I made using The Greeting Farm Anya and Ian stamps. They sure are cute and really inspire me to use them. The first card is a Center Stair Step card using the AO-Ahoy stamp set. I used some Stampin' Up background paper and Baker's twine because they fit the theme so perfectly. All images are colored using Copics. Here's the AO-Ahoy card:


And here is a side view so you an see the center step:


The next two cards are using The Greeting Farm Anya stamps, Fleur Anya and Beanie Anya. They were cut using some Nestabilities label punches, and on the Fleur Anya, the decorative border was made using a Martha Stewart punch. Both are colored using Copic markers.






That's it for today. Thanks for looking.
