Welcome to the Love Me Do blog hop sponsored by Stamping Bella! Did you hop over from the uber talented Jeanie? If not, you can start the hop on Bloggabella to see all the eye candy.
Wowzers! Are your fingers sore from all that hopping? Thanks so much for sticking it out to the end because I have a fun card to share and a little tip at the end too. I couldn't resist pairing up Landon and Hannah Lollipop for a sweet lovey couple.
The images are stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Bella's Bestest Paper and coloured with copics. His shirt and her dress and bow are paper pieced using patterns from my October Afternoon Cherry Hill papers. I layered the panels with riding hood red and basic grey then added a little stitching. I tucked the sentiment under the grey bow and finished the card with two Glitter Dots.
Now let me show you how I made Landon Lollipop taller. I started by stamping Hannah, then I stamped Landon onto an imaging sheet for my stamp-a-majig. You can see that if I place him so they're holding hands, his legs are too short and their feet don't line up. It looks like he's levitating!
So I cleaned my stamp, inked up the top part of Landon, including part of his legs, and stamped him beside Hannah.
Then I cleaned my stamp and inked up his legs and feet. I used my stamp-a-majig to line up and "grow" his legs. Presto...a taller Landon!
There's a $25 Bella Bucks prize hidden somewhere along the hop and one lucky commenter will be randomly chosen as the winner. The winner will be announced next Friday in the Stamping Bella Forum on Splitcoast.
I'm the last stop on the hop. Thanks for stopping by!
