Love You!

Hi everyone! Happy Wednesday!!!

I have been seeing SO many stampers use denim in their creations, so of course, I wanted to try it too (aren't I SUCH a follower?). There were no jeans in my house that wanted to sacrifice themselves for a card, so I found some denim patches on my last trip to Michaels and I thought that they would do the trick!

The layout is Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge, SSSC77 from this past Sunday. LOVE this layout! As soon as I saw this sketch I knew I wanted to use the darling Emma Blowing Kisses from My Favorite Things. I ADORE Emma and hope that Kim has more in store for us (please Kim?)

I started by stamping Emma in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Choice Snow White Cardstock and colored her with Copic Markers. I stamped her again, also in the Memento Tuxedo Black, onto the denim patch, and used it to piece her dress! Now she has a denim dress...LOVE it!

The patterned paper is from DeLovely by Cosmo Cricket and I embossed the Classic Magenta panel with the Polka Dots Embossing Folder. I then created (this is my favorite!!) layers of scalloped denim with my beloved Die-Namics Jumbo Scallop Die! SO fun!!

I added a Hot Pink Brad to each corner of my focal panel and the sentiment, "Love You", also from Emma Blowing Kisses, was attached to my focal image as a little tag!

Thanks SO much for stopping by!!

  2. Fabulous Jodi!! I think the patches are genius since they won't fray as badly as plain denim. Love Emma and your adorable card!
