“Sigh ….. boys!” ** A look back?

Published by at 12:01 am under Hanna Challenges,Hanna Stamps

HS Slumber party 429×515Ahhhhhhhhhh, remember those wonderful sleep-overs when we girls talked of boys, & boys, &, yes … boys?!   This “Slumber Party” set lets us do just that … I have delightful old pics to prove the fun ‘we’ had!   As an added touch of fun, this girl’s jammies are paper-pieced and her popcorn is really “fluffy” too …  almost yummy!

I was happy to host the newest challenge in the SCS Hanna Forum, HSDRC1 = “Stitch It!”  The challenge requirement is to use ”stitches”.   Of course, you can choose to use hand stitching, faux stitches, rub-on stitches, or machine stitching.  Just stitch and post your creation to your SCS gallery by Monday, December 8, and also post the link to my challenge threadLot’s of time for you to get’r done.  I’ll select one winner on Monday evening, and post the winner’s name in the Hanna Forum as well as here on my blog.  Winner gets to select a brand new set of Hanna Stamps!  Best of luck to you!  (Yes, you may enter as many times as you wish. )

HS Slumber party popcorn closeup 300×212This card uses 4 of the 10 stamps included in this tween-teen-stylish set.  I enjoy masking, and used it to prop up this sweet girl atop the separate pillow.   The popcorn is looking freshly-popped thanks to liquid applique!  I applied it little ‘dots’, shot it with the heat tool, and (after cooling) gave it a bit of color with a Copic marker.  Yum!

Thanks to my multi-talented hubby, my mini sewing machine came back to the table for this card … and he even sat by to watch the results of his ‘help’.  Maybe he’s my good-luck charm?  Thanks, honey!   I layered the sentiment atop a layer cut from my Spellbinders ‘Pinking Circles’.  

You are welcome to come along, join in the challenge fun, and create a Hanna or Riley or Sophie project that includes a bit of stitching!  I hope to find your creations linked in our forum and maybe even here too!  Thanks for stopping by!
