Sew Lovely

I have a confession to make. I went on a buying frenzy just before life took a turn for the crazy-busy. So, even though it's been weeks since I've sat and stamped, I have so many sets that need to be inked.

To make up for lost time (and to appease my guilt over the number of sets that are en route to me), I hereby pledge to do a few cards with each new set before moving on to the next new thing. Wish me luck!

The first newbie I cracked open was sew lovely from the uber-talented Kelly Marie over at Lawn Fawn. I love her stuff!! She has such a whimsical style and the quality is beyond phenomenal. Really, they stamp like PTI. No joke.



My second card uses the same focal image (I love the dress form) but focuses more on using some of my latest dies and tools. Can you guess what they are without scrolling to the bottom of this post?


Well, I'm off to ink up some of the other images in this set. They are just too cute to put away in a box just yet. Thanks for stopping by!!

Those are so cute! I almost bought a couple of Lawn Fawn stamps today, but decided on PTI instead. I really like the patterned papers and layouts on these.

Very pretty, Suzanne! How fun to create with your new stuff! I've been circling around LF myself lately and I don't know how much longer I'll be able to resist, LOL!
