Hello! I know I should be working on building up the backbones of this site
but I just can't seem to pull myself away from my Copics and the beautiful Digi Stamps from Saturated Canary. Krista creates such amazing stamps.
I absolutely love coloring them and, for whatever reason, I seem to find that lot of them either resemble, or would be perfect for, someone I know.
This is one of those images.
Meet Pricilla Pie from Saturated Canary.
I kept looking at her every time I was over at Krista's store - she sooo reminded me of one of our employees, I just knew I had to get it and work it up for her.
I'm still just starting out, as far as card making goes, so I don't really have a huge stash of stuff to use. Thankfully I do have a pack of Shrinky Dinks so when I need just the right
embellishment, in just the right shade, I can go and make one. Of course it's not the same as having a real ribbon bow but it is dimensional and sometimes even works better than what I might have used if my stash had been larger.
That is what I did when my mind's eye envisioned a cute little pen attached to the tag (to go with the sentiment), but couldn't find anything in my local craft store - and I manage the store so chances are if it existed in the form that I wanted I certainly would have found it.
It's what I used for the two pink bows as well. Unfortunately I forgot to lighten my images the first time so that when they baked up they actually turned out purple! That's okay though, I'm sure I'll eventually need a little purple bow for something.

Sentiment: "When writing the story of your life don't let anyone else hold the pen." Saw this on a Harley Davidson Poster and loved it. Worked it up in PSP and printed it on Cryogen Luxury Cardstock.
