a little topper

while watching TV last night i sat  colouring in this little sweetie

from Crafters Companion 

the new Humphrey stamps are just scrummy i haven’t made it into a card yet as i wanted the 3d gel to dry

she is coloured in with spectrum noir pens  with a touch of crystal glitter 

i have stood her in the ivy that is cut from  a Marianne die on centrua pearl white card

there are sentiments with these stamps this one has Make a Wish and birthday  girl

would be a perfect image for any little girl

thanks for popping by again today

Humphrey Mobile with template

 i saw a mobile which was truly stunning while visiting some of the blogs i follow

just knew i had to try and make one.... this is my take on the idea 
sorry about the image being dark it was taken very late at night and trying to get the little image to stop spinning was a fete in it's self
i have added my template  at the bottom of this post if you would like to try one
get  everything ready before hand the assembly is very quick

i used the thick A4 grey card the sort you get at back of a writing pad you only need 1 sheet

 i painted mine with Acrylic paint  it makes it very strong 

of coarse i had to  use the new

Humphrey stamp  from Crafters Companion

as my main element

the stars are  the smallest X Cut dies 

i used invisible  double length of thread  for the arms and sandwiched that  between the stars that were all cut from core-dination card

decorated the top with more stars  flowers gems and some cut glass glitter

  my template 

print out @ A4

thank you for popping by today

ps

the inspiration for this project  came from this young lady
