Farmer Girl





Hello Everyone,

It's a Happy Holly-Day Friday for me, I am off for the weekend and I am so looking forward to some quiet crafty time.   Today I am using the the adorable MFT P.I. Farmer Girl.   When I first saw this image, I thought of a country fair.  The hay bale, two sentiments, a chicken, a chick and a pig image comes with her and I jsut love them all, they are adorable.  I am using my Echo Park - A perfect Summer 6X6 papers.  I love the air balloons in the background and the primary colors.  The chicken wire is a new Die-Namic and oh boy, I have so many plans for this one!  I am also using Die-namic Mini Tabs Quartet.  I cut out a tab and then repositioned it over the edge and re cut it to make it shorter.  I airbrushed the background with my Copic Markers and colored her up with my Copics as well.  I inked her up with Memento Tuxedo Black and the paper is Copic X-press.

All of these cute P.I. girls remind me of my daughter when she was little.  She always had to have the perfect outfit for each occasion and her hair just so.  She was a girls girl.  Very quiet and shy and giggly.  I remember the neighbor asking me if I curled her hair everyday because the bottom of her hair curled up so perfectly.  No, it was natural, but it was a lot of work to keep it long and tangle free, lol.   But she was every Mom's dream of a little girl.


I hope you have time this weekend to do something you love. 

Holly
