I was in a patriotic mood as I started stamping with the brand new à la modes stamp set, Blue Without You, so I whipped out some new Echo Park patterned paper (that was a gift from my sweet friend, Joanne Basile) and went to town. :)
She was colored with Copic markers. I used the new First Class Friend Die-namics die to "frame" her. I attached a sentiment on another new Die-namics die, Dog Tag with some white twine. I adorned the tag with a simple star from the Stacking Stars Die-namics die. I added a "swoop" of stars using the Star Border Die-namics.
Check out the adorable new dies:
While I had out all the supplies, I decided to use the same papers and dies for the other new a la modes stamp set, Talk Nerdy to Me. Isn't she SWEET? She reminds me of my youngest daughter who is a self-professed nerd and LOVES buying shirts that have the word NERD on them. She is so silly. :)
She is colored with Copic markers. I used a silver glitter pen to jazz up the pencil. The sentiment is stamped on the new Ticket Tab.
