Guest Designing with Krafty Chicks

 

 

Hey there!!
Welcome to Robyn's Nest!!

I am super stoked to be guest designing with Krafty Chicks Challenge, and hanging out in their "hen house" for the entire month of September! 

I was so surprised when Lori Turner contacted me, and asked!
Thanks, Lori for the invitation!!!!

My first card of the month is for my cousin Melody, in Illinois..

We grew up together, very closely, and here we are in our old age, still best friends!!
We try to vacation together, and so far we have been on 7 cruises..the last one in March of this year, before the world went crazy!! 

 

 

Ok...enough chit chatting!! 

Here's what I came up with

I wanted to make Melody a new card since it's been a while. 

I didn't have any ideas in my head, so I went to the cards my crafty friends send me for inspiration. 

Lisa Bzibziak sent me this gorgeous card last year. She is an amazing card maker, and I claim to be her number one #fangirl

Almost an exact copy 💖 (hers is prettier) 

 

Here's a shot of the inside of the card, too 

 

The details are as follows....

I used, My Favorite Things, Pure Innocence line of stamps (love them)

The set is called "You're My Person" 

MFT~ You're My Person <<link

I started with a piece of heavy Papertrey Ink white card stock

I cut a heart out using Lawn Fawn stitched hearts, and a piece of pink velum..

I cut some plaid card stock with a fancy scalloped die

I stamped the girls image on white card stock, and colored the skin and hair with Copics. 

I used the same paper pack to paper piece their clothes, then used the matching die to cut them out...

I used a few tiny white flowers, some sweet butterflies, and, stitched clouds to complete the card.

I just love how it turned out, and I know she will, too!!

If you have any questions about what companies I use, please ask in comments!
I try to keep my posts short, but would love to hear from you!!
