Girly and I had a card making time before she went to bed for the night. Lately, she seems to ask to make cards every night before bed. I think she really likes the mom/daughter time doing something we both enjoy (though we DO enjoy a lot of the same things). She gets to use my Copics because I know she respects them and takes good care of them. She made sure that I saw how she colored with them so that I could be extra confident with her.
We like picking colors together, but Girly also loves picking her own colors and doing her own thing. She's got a really good idea for color and design! That girl is a natural paper crafter!
She wanted to take part in the Heartily Yours blog hop that's going on over at my blog (Stampin' Mama) as well as the blogs of many other girls on the GinaK team.
She also wanted to use some of the luscious cardstock and velum that she received as being a Paper Princess for the Paper Temptress.
She used a piece of Red Texture cardstock (which has a beautiful mottled look and texture to it) and layered a piece of Sandy Stripes Vellum across the middle. She stamped her wishing well image (from the Heartily Yours set) on white cardstock with black ink and then colored it with Copics. She layered that on top of Violet Vellum.
The greeting is from the Heartily Yours set and was stamped with black ink. The buttons on the sides of the well are from the Romance button assortment and were put on with mini glue dots.
And here's the Creative Girly herself in all her stamping glory at her mama's craft desk.
As you can see, we're big Spongebob Squarepants fans in this house. The adults, too!
Girly would love to hear what you think of her Valentine's card!
I think it is every bit as cute as you are! I am overjoyed that you are PaperTemptress's PaperPrincess this month. You have done an amazing job, I am just so proud of you.

Wow, Girly, I am just now trying to learn to use Copics and it looks like you have it mastered already. I love this card. You sure are following in your mom's footsteps.

Hi Girly. You did an outstanding job on your card. It looks like it's been done by an older, more experienced card maker. You will surely be an inspiration to other young girls like yourself. Keep up the wonderful, creative work and you'll go a long way, just like your mom. By the way, Mr. Anders has a pair of Sponge Bob Square Pants lounging pants just like yours, only a little bigger. LOL!

Beautiful! there are a lot of adults that can't manage half as well (including me - I can't stay in the lines when I color!).
