Dressy in Pink

I've got another card featuring a TGF Anya- Miss Anya Dressy. For a long time I resisted these stamps- too cutsie, too childish for me. But.. I kept seeing all the fabulous creations with them out there and started following the TFG blog and decided to try a few. Now I'm hooked.

Stamp: The Greeting Farm
Papers: We R Memory Keepers; Cosmo Cricket
Tools: Nestabilities; Copics
Accents: Ribbon, rhinestones- butterfly from hairpin

Did you notice in my list above that the butterfly on her hat is from a hair pin? Yep, I had some pins that I knew I would not wear but saved them cause I thought I could use them on a project one day.

This card is for the following challenges:

Club Anya- empherma (the butterfly)

Roses on Paper- Layers

Anya Ink- Pink and sparkly

Stamptacular Sunday- Spots and Dots

The Pink Elephant- Recipe- 1 image, 2 dies, 3 embellies ( I used oval die and labels four and three rhinestones)

Thanks for looking and have a great weekend. I'm off to plant some flowers that we just picked up!

You may have noticed my ornament topiary in my last post about my window wreaths. That was another project that was on my list last year. I was inspired by these at BHG because they were in my color scheme. I set out to make one this year. I didn't follow the directions at BHG. Instead, I did a little more searching and then just did it my way. Most people suggest painting your stryofoam ball in a complimentary color first. I skipped this step because I was in a hurry, but I do recommend you do that. I used a 4 in styrofoam ball, 3 different size ornaments and a glitter pick. I also used a dowel rod which I covered in washi tape and a planter from the dollar tree. My planter was originally bronze, but with a few coats of spray paint it became silver. You also need some foam for the planter and something to cover it with. I used moss and blue glass pebbles. The pebbles give the bottom some weight. I think this makes a much better centerpiece for this ar
