I went to a rubber stamp convention yesterday and won a door prize!!! I got a brand new rubber stamp, not even available to the general public yet, from StampinÂ’ DÂ’Amour!! Pamela, the owner, told me that I was the very first to own this stamp!!! Of course I had to use it first thing upon arriving home.
I stamped her in waterproof black ink on watercolour paper. I watercoloured her face, and then used a coloured pencil and odorless mineral spirits for her hat - a marriage of my two favourite ways to colour!
I cased this card from DeniseÂ’s (aka Card Crazy) FS56 Petal Pusher card. I added the girl's head, changed the layout (took away one panel), substituted stamps, and added a flourish and a flower.
Accessories: Winsor & Newton watercolours (girlÂ’s face), Prismacolor Pencils and odorless mineral spirits (girlÂ’s hat and collar), dimensionals, sponge

Aren't we the lucky one. BRAVO SOPHIE! This is one gorgeous caseing, love that new stamp, is that Shirley Temple? Probably not, but it is pretty. Love the hat the corner, my goodness that has so much class and oh I'm lost at words. Beautiful Sophie or as the french would say: "Magnifique ch�rie, tout simplement magnifique!"
