Showcase Mondays!

Why is it that weekends fly by so quickly?? I can't believe it's Monday morning already! Do you find yourself needing a little "pick-me-up" on Mondays? We now have a new feature over on the Humble Pie blog to help get your week off to a fun start. Join us for "Showcase Monday" when the Bakers will be showing you projects featuring the many different stamp companies and product lines that Phebe carries at The Town Scrapper! She, of course, is the exclusive retailer of Humble Pie Stamps, but she also has a ton of other goodies in her store!

Today, I am showing you a card featuring the newest Miss Anya set from The Greeting Farm called "Miss Anya Love". I just adore the Miss Anya stamps, and this new set is no exception! As usual, there are three Anya images in the set, and they are gorgeous! I love the versatility of these stamps. They are great for birthday cards, thank-you cards, thinking-of-you cards...oh, the list is endless! I chose to make a friendship card.

I also used some other product lines Phebe has at The Town Scrapper. The design paper is all from the new Basic Grey collection called "Origins" and the two oval layers were cut using Spellbinders dies. Remember, if Phebe does not have a specific Spellbinders set in stock, she can always order it in for you. Her service is fast and super friendly!

Miss Anya was stamped on Neenah cardstock with Memento ink and coloured with Copic markers. I had a lot of fun colouring the folds in her dress and trying to make them look three dimensional. All the edges were sponged with brown ink and Miss Anya was adhered with pop dots for dimension. The "Friend" brad was something I've had kicking around in my stash for quite a while.

I hope you make our "Showcase Mondays" at the Humble Pie Blog part of your week! Phebe's contact information is on her blog, right beneath the header. Petrolia is such a pretty little town to visit! I love driving out there and seeing the Victorian charm of all the beautiful old homes. It is well worth the trip, as I know you will leave Phebe's store with a ton of goodies! If you are too far to visit, please contact her! As I said, Phebe's customer service is great!

God bless!
