High Hopes Sneak peek!!!

I am so excited!! Tomorrow is a new high hopes release and can I just tell you that it is filled with such awesome adorable images. I know that they all are but seriously, you are in for a treat. I decided to show you my favorite image from this release. One of the reasons it is my favorite is because I had a little to do with the inspiration behind the image. I asked Crissy to draw a girl playing dress up with too big of shoes and a boa and she certainly delivered! Thanks Crissy, I totally love how you made the idea in my mind come to life on paper- love you!!!

So without further ado I give you:



I colored my image with copics. I was thrilled to find some sparkly fibers at my stamp store and I just new it would be perfect for the boa- what do you think? Her necklace was accented with liquid pearls, the hat was accented with stickles on the band and a rhinestone in the center of the flower.

closer look:


Supplies:
stamps- High hopes dress up
CS- GP white, Paper Temptress pink lemonade pop tones and eclipse black, PTI plum pudding
