Essentials By Ellen Celebration Lady

Hello hello!!  I am so excited to be sharing a project for the newest Ellen Hutson release today!  My card features the fun Celebration Lady stamp set and coordinating Celebration Lady dies.  The newest leading lady is ready to party! :)

I have been trying to push myself out of the box lately, and I am loving colored card bases right now.  It is such a fun change from white!  To create my card, I started off with a black A2 card base, and diecut a panel slightly smaller to add a stitched edge.  I splattered the panel with some gold metallic watercolor to add a festive feel.  I stamped and colored Celebration Lady with copic markers, and paper pieced her skirt with some polka dot paper from my stash.  Then I diecut her with the coordinating Celebration Lady dies.  I did not like how the white edge looked against the dark background, so I colored around the edges of the diecut with a black marker, then popped her up with foam tape.  Of course, it can't be a celebration without some bubbly!  I added a glittery champagne glass to her hand, and coated it with some glossy accents for shine.  For some more festive touches, I stamped and colored the streamer from the set and adhered a few of them with a glue pen.  I stamped a sentiment from the set onto a hand cut banner of black cardstock, and heat embossed it with white embossing powder to make it pop.  And to finish things off, I added a scattering of sequins, and some white gel pen accents before popping the panel up on the card base with some foam tape.

There's lots more to see today!  Be sure to hop along to visit these wonderful ladies and see what they have to share with you today!!

Essentials By Ellen New Release

Hello there!  I have a fun post to share with you today!  I have been in the throws of hurricane preparation for the last few days as hurricane Irma is due to pass right over top of my home later today.  It was so nice to be able to sit down and write a blog post and distract myself with something that I love!

I am so honored to have been asked to join in the latest Essentials By Ellen release from Ellen Hutson!  The cutest little Leading Lady is being introduced, and she, along with a bunch of other fabulous new goodies are available in the Ellen Hutson store today!  Read on to find out more!

Let me introduce Leading Lady - Baker Lady!  She is as cute as a button and this stamp set is perfect for holiday as well as everyday cards!  To create my card, I started off by watercoloring a background using shades of Cracked Pistachio and Lucky Clover distress ink onto a piece of Tim Holtz Distress watercolor paper.  I added a strip of polka dot paper to the bottom of the panel to serve as the counter top for my little Baker Lady.  (Now I wish I had polka dot counters!)  I stamped and colored a bunch of images from the Leading Lady - Baker Lady stamp set, and then diecut them with the coordinating Baker Lady dies.  I paper pieced her apron and hair bow with some plaid paper, and popped everything up with foam tape.  Then I stamped a sentiment from the same stamp set, and mounted the panel on a red card base.  To finish things off, I added some white gel pen accents.

Isn't she just so cute?! :)
