Toy's Haven

  Good morning, ya’ll.

Today’s Featured Stamper is Cindy (YLM).  Cool gallery, Cindy!  I awoke at 4am this morning (again!) and checked out Cindy’s gallery.  I found this little cutie to case. 

Although I was totally drawn to her simple layout, ya know I had to go and TOY it up.  I added a layer, a scallop border, brads and moved the sentiment. 

I took the opportunity to work with my new pearlescent watercolors (courtesy of Kim at My Favorite Things).  I stamped my image on basic black, embossed in white and went to coloring.  I tell ya, I am so not a watercolorer, but these babies are so beautiful (colors) and easy to use.  I really wish I could have captured the shimmer in this pic, but i couldn’t get right angle.  Trust me.. the colors are fab!  The black grosgrain is threaded through the prima and tied in a knot.
