Meet the Divas Blog Hop

Welcome to the Whimsie Doodles "Meet the Divas" Blog Hop!  Today I make my debut as part of the Whimsie Doodles newest Design Team know as the Doodlelicious Divas!  I have been a fan of these whimsical images so I'm thrilled to have been invited to be part of the DT! If you have made it here from Julie's blog, you're in the right place.  You can always start from the beginning at Emily's blog, too!


As part of my introduction, I've been asked to share
5 Doodlelicious Things about Me:


1.  My first papercrafts project was home made Easter cards with my kids.  I bought a $1 clear stamp set from the clearance center at Michael's............then my stamping supplies multiplied like bunnies since then.

2. When I'm not paper crafting, I enjoy blog surfing and stalking my favorite fellow paper crafters in the blogosphere.

3.  My favorite Whimsie Doodles images are "Tooth Fairy Girl" and "Tooth Fairy Boy."  I have made the cutest tooth fairy tins with them that you can see HERE!

4.  My favorite papercrafting technique is paper piecing!  I feel like I get to play dress up with the images when i paper piece.

5.  My favorite embellishment is twine.....jute twine and baker's twine in all sorts of yummy colors.

Now on to my card!  I decided to show off one of the Halloween themed images from the new September release of images called Frankie!


Isn't he great!?!  I decided to distress and ink the edges of the card stock and patterned paper to match the tattered look of his shirt.  I hand drew that spider web an added then added some clear spica pen to it to make it shimmer.  I printed the sentiment from my computer in "chiller" font.  Oh, and that cool patterned paper is actually digi paper from a FREE Halloween digi paper pack that you can download HERE!

Be sure to head on over to Whimsie Doodles and check out all of the fun images!  If you love to color like I do, you will love these images! And don't forget to check out the Whimsie Doodles Blog where you will find video tutorials, challenges, and additional inspiration from the DT!
