Oh, What A Doll

Hi Everyone!

Don't you just love the title of my post?  It's the name of the new stamp set available tomorrow (yes, THE day is almost here!) at the Amber Ink store!  Yay!

I can't begin to tell you how dear to my heart this new set is...I simply adored paper dolls as a child.  In fact, I still have all my paper dolls packed away in a box to this day.  I played with them constantly ( which is why some are all held together with tape...lol) and even used to make clothes for them myself. 

After I was too old to play with them, like maybe Jr. high age, I used to pull them out and write torrid soap opera stories about them :)  I never truly out grew them.

This fabulous new set has a fantastic Amber girl in it, along with a slew of clothes to make different outfits for her...dress, scuba gear, bathing suit...Shut up, I totally love it! 

I use the current layout from Clean and Simple Stamping

and made her into super volleyball chick.  She is dressed in shorts and tank top made using the new paper, Hope, Popcorn and Wine.  I also liked this layout because I could use a coordinating strip of dotty paper on the side.

Love her!

And just so the boys don't feel left out, I used the digi image of the ball to create a card for them as well.

I copied it a couple of times, colored them just because I could and added a simple computer generated sentiment.  I layered it on top of a piece of the new seahorse paper and added some ribbon.  I thought ribbon in black with a knot instead of a bow would be ok on a boy card :) 

Well, tomorrow is the big day!  Make sure you come back to see what fun is in store...

Thanks for visiting me!
