Hanna Sneak Peek - Anthony!!!

This set is WAY cute! I was able to whip up these cards with my big Wild Asparagus pad of designer papers. I am slowing using them! (yay for me)

I made two cards with the Anthony set and the designer papers.

First card: Time to party!
This card is a 4.5x4.5 square. It is a white base and a square of designer paper. The watch is part of the Anthony set. I stamped it on the whisper white cardstock and colored it in with copics. I used a small adhesive bling in the center of the watch. The sentiment is printed on the computer - two brown brads on the side/corner rounder on the edge of the sentiment - a small bit of chocolate chip grossgrain ribbon tied in a simple knot.
This card reminds me of a funny story. Todd and I are not really worldly (or into fashion for that matter. I get most of my clothes at Kohl's and Target because I wear my clothes hard with the kids - most of the time I have spills and stains on my clothes - why go all out until they are a little bigger). We were enroute to our big France trip when Todd realized he forgot his watch. He wears a watch every day. I am not a watch person. When we got to our connection in JFK we had a few hours to wander, so we decided to grab him an inexpensive watch for the trip. We were wandering in the international terminal and I noticed a store with watches in the window. "How about this store?" I asked Todd. We went in (to Cartier) without any idea what to expect. I looked in the display case and noticed a very plain watch. I asked the sales person how much it was. $7,500. I only gasped a little. The man put on white gloves and asked if Todd wanted to try it on. We smiled, said thank you and left. We burst into a fit of laughter outside the store and never did get a watch for Todd. It did make a fun memory.

This was a simple card as well! It is a 5x5 square card. The main image is stamped once on whisper white, once on chocolate chip. I made a nice dark suit for Anthony. I paper pieced it on him and then colored him with copics. Computer font for the sentiment. I sewed the ribbon on the card with a zigzag stitch.
