Hello everyone! Yes.... I should be making stuffing, pies, etc. etc. but instead I am playing with my stamps! I will be up all hours tonight to make up for this.... but it's worth it!
When I saw Roxie's sketch for today I knew what image I wanted to use. I have had this stamp from American Art Stamps for some time and it's the first time it's seen ink, but after going through the sale brochures for Fri. that we have gotten so far, I know I'll be on line for that certain special thing! As an ex-retail owner, I know how important Black Friday is.... and I pledge to do my very best to help the economy on that day!!!
I paper pieced the bags, gifts and bows... talk about crazy!!! Stamped image in Memento Tuxedo Black, colored with Copics, and added lots of shimmer with gel pens. Added gem to her neck for a necklace, and a few other touches.... used a Prima and added Christmas Red Stickles to the brad in it's center. The ribbon is from Michaels and has a pretty silver thread running through it. I had so much fun with this one... I hope you like it!
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone... and shop your feet off Friday!!! LOL!

perfect for the 'in the block' starting gate of shopping mania! I love your bugged panel and that pointsettia! Happy day, Grace...I just bought Costco pies last night...don't think I could buy the ingredients cheaper...and it bought me more paper creative time...sounds reasonable, don't you think!!!!
