Polka Dot Suzi


Do you ever feel like when you plan to do something everything gets in the way?!? I was so happy when we school was cancelled on Friday due to the weather. I had two boxes of goodies come in that morning and I had full intentions on spending the day stamping. Little did I know that was far from what was in store for me. I wont go into detail on my blog but just know Im dealing with alot right now and Im not sure how often I will be on here to post. My hearts just not in it right now.
I do have something to share with you today. In one of my boxes of goodies was this Sassy Suzi image from The Greeting Farm. So I sat down today to see if some stamping therapy would help me feel better. Thankfully it did! I just love her hair and it was so fun to color. I pulled out some PTI polka dot parade dp and colored her to match. I went a little crazy with the polka dots on this one. I also used Mercys Tuesday sketch for my layout. Thanks for stopping by.
Stamps: Sassy Suzi-The Greeting Farm, SU polka dot background
Ink: memento black, versamark, copics
Paper: PTI sweet blush, berry sorbet, moss, white

This is just super cute Shannon! I love all the dots, paper and texture.
Sorry to hear you are having to deal with something tough. I've got a lot going on too right now so stamping has moved way to the bottom of the list of things to do. I came out to check blogs for a bit of distraction. Good luck with whatever it is you are dealing with. Hopefully, we'll both get over the bumps soon and be back to posting more. Hang in there:)
