Sisters

I finally finished my 3 customs and was able to play with my new "Stepsisters" stamp from Mo's Digital Pencil. I absolutely love this image so I've been dying to play with it all week!

Very simple design although I did kind of struggle with placement for quite a while. I knew I wanted to add all the parts I did, but wasn't sure where to position them all.  I think this might have been the longest I've gone back and forth on a layout actually, but ultimately it all worked out. 

With all of the die cutting machines now, I never really bring out the hand punches anymore, so I whipped them out this time, and then popped them up with some foam squares. I loved the flower so much, I made another smaller version for the bottom. The sentiments were computer-generated and semi-based on a custom order I made last month.

My goal this weekend is to re-stock my website which is in desperate need for some new inventory.  Seems like a good excuse to go shopping, right? If you get a chance, check out Mo's site. Her work is incredible!

Thanks for visiting!
