Blog Hopping Fun!

This week at the Cuttlebug Spot we are blog hopping to see everyone's work. We are using any past technique ( i.e. inking, sanding) we've done on the board and featuring our work on our blogs. I don't know about you but I can't wait to visit the rest of the DT's blogs to see what everyone created (scroll to end of post for next blog hop)...

Here's my creation this week:

On this card I used the D'vine Swirls embossing folder (DCWV textured cardstock) on the background layer and I sanded the embossing with my sanding block. The stamped image is a Stampin' Up image. I borrowed a bunch a stamps from a friend awhile back and had stamped this cute little ballerina that I've been waiting to use. I colored her in with my water color pencils which I've finally gotten the hang of using different colors to create new shades/hues. I used my Nesties label 4 and cut it on my Cuttlebug and stamped the word "dance" ( from a Studio g pack I had) with my Studio g pigment ink. The image is popped up on foam squares to give it demension. I also used my cricut to cut the scalloped oval frame ( used my Creative Memories oval cutters to cut the center from it) and ran that through the CB D'vine Swirls folder and sanded it as well. I added some of the pink trim that reminded be of a ballet tutu, and added some Making Memories mini flowers to finish it off.

Thanks for stopping in now you need to hop on over to Susan blog to check out her creation. Here's the link: http://susansdayoffcreations.blogspot.com/2009/07/paradise-serendipity.html
