Sugar Nellie's Sassy Fashionista (x3!!!)

 I have been having a play with my latest Simply Sassy, Fashionista.  I have been experiementing with different looks for her ... 

First I had a go using some fab vintage papers my lovely crafting buddy, and friend Ali gave me ...
 I coloured the iamge in using my promarkers and then matted her and the dp (Papermania V&A collection)onto black cardstock.  I coloured some white organza and satin ribbon black with my black copic pen, and then made a flower with the satin ribbon, simply doing a running stitch along one edge and gathering it and stitching into a floewr.  I added some card candy and a pin to it.  Simply Sassy are doing a GDT call, so I have followed the sketch for that.

A modern look for the second ...
 This time I coloured her in using pinks and greys and again matted her and the dp (Basic Grey Olivia) onto black cardstock.  I added some circles created using punched flowers and layered the butterflies onto them, and some card candy to finish it off.
Challenges:
Colour Create - pink, black and white
Totally Papercrafts - sketch
Stamp Something - Sassy and circles

And finally a White on White card ...
Again Fashionista is coloured in using my promarkers and then  I cut her out.  I followed the sketch from the Sugar Bowl, and the colour theme, purple and green.  I used a doilly  as I haven't got my Bug and nesties with me as we are still on holiday.  I used embossed panels from Ali, and arranged them at a quirky angle, inverting the embossing on the middle two.  I added some white organza, a double bow and some white flat backed pearls.
Challenges:
A Spoonful of Sugar - Tons of Texture
Crafty Catz - Embossing
The Stamp Man - Embossing


I do love my Sassys!!!  Just wished I brought more with me on holiday ... I did have to confess to owning all but 5 of them!!!!

I am off to play in the garden with the girls and hopefully we will blogging this evening if the internet continues to behave itself!!!
