There She Goes | MOABH

Hello!  Welcome to the 2nd annual Mother of All Blog Hops sponsored by There She Goes Clear Stamps!!  If you came to my blog from Jackie Rakoski's blog, then you are at the right place - if not, you should hop on over to the There She Goes blog for all of the information on how you can win one of our fabulous prizes!

I'm using one of my favorite stamp sets from TSG called Fairy Good Day and I stamped this sweet little fairy in Memento Rich Cocoa and then colored her with Copics.  I may have gotten a little bit crazy with the sewing, and if you are curious, I was not intoxicated while stitching, I just have a natural swerve.  I really do hope that straightens out the more I sew - such a rookie!  The papers are from Lime Twist - Life of the Party by My Mind's Eye and the layout is Sweet Stop's SSS106.

Be sure to keep hoppin' for all sorts of prizes!  Your next stop is the fabulous Tobi Crawford.

Thanks for stopping by!
Karen
