It’s February’s Blog Hop!
Welcome to February’s Blog Hop! It’s another exciting one! We have been working with Sherri Baldy Stamps! For my first Blog Hop project I used the Nellie and Dot the Dragon stamp. Once I colored her, I decided to use her on a locker dry erase board.
I colored Nellie and Dot using my Distress Markers and some watercolor markers. I did try my first attempt at using Copics for the skin. I’m not sure whether I want to invest all that money into more Copics, but at least I have the skin tones. The Distress Markers would not work for skin. I then added some clear stickles to her socks, skirt, and a dot in each eye.
I used some purple beaded trim from the dollar store to put across the bottom. Then I used some large jewels to put around the frame. But I didn’t have purple jewels, so I decided in keeping with Valentine’s Day I would punch out some purple hearts!
I glued Nellie and Dot to some chipboard after I colored them. I then cut them out with a craft knife (not an easy thing to do–note to self: use thinner cardboard). I found some stuff called Fantasy Fibre that I used to put behind her. I also added some black feathers and green tulle.
I just loved how this turned out! I am sure some teenage girl would want this in their locker! If you have any questions…ask away. If you want to leave a comment, go ahead and show me some love!
Now it’s on to the next person on the Blog List…..

Talk about creative fun!
Love this project. She looks adorable coloured up and great design with the locker dry erase board. Love the use of hearts and feathers too. Bettina xx
Your erase board is so cute!
This is really an adorable idea! I love the bling trim you added across the bottom and I love that image too – super cute!
I love what you did behind Nellie and Dot!
What a great choice of digi, she is SO cute! So colorful and fun.
Really great project. Love the beaded ribbon and the white glitter on her spats and ruffle really sets off the image. I wish I had a locker. Heck, I wish I was a teenager. Well, maybe not a teenager.
I love it, it is sooooo cute!!!!
