Some Abi inspiration from Dressy Girl Christine

Hi Ladies

Christine here today with a card for you.... using one of the lovely original FREEBIE images called Abi Ballerina.  You can find her HERE.

I decided to opt for an easel style card as I haven't done one in a while, and they're just so easy to do!  Abi is coloured with a mix of Copics and Promarkers - and I used some digi paper I had in stock.   Glitter, velvet ribbon, and some tiny gems completed this relatively simple card.

To create the 'stopper' for the easel..  I played around with a computer generated sentiment..  you'll find it on my blog HERE if you'd like it, or you would like more details of this card.

Hope I've inspired you to get your pens and paper out...  

Big hugs

Welcome new Dressy girl Nicole.

Last but by no means least we want to introduce new Dressy Girl Nicole...

Hi!  I'm a former kindergarten teacher who is now a stay at home mom to my 2 little girls.  My hubby is supportive of all my crafty pursuits and that says a lot about him because I love all kinds of crafts from making headbands, bows, & designing dresses to making party favors and now cards!!  I am a newcomer on the stamping scene and have met so many wonderful crafting friends already thanks to the common joy of card making and coloring with Copic markers.  I would color all day long if my family would let me...!!  Lol! My favorite colors are the blue greens (affectionately called the BG's) and I try to sneak them into every card I make!! 

I love to get crafty with my girls (ages 8 & 6) and let them color images right along side me.  It's a fun hobby for us all to share!! 

I'm so happy to be joining the fabulous team of ladies at All Dressed Up!!  These digis are so adorable and make me smile every time I see them!!  :) :)

And here is one of Nicoles beautiful cards featuring All Dressed Up

We hope you will give Nicole a warm Dressy Welcome. 

Don't forget to check back tomorrow at 5pm GMT for our new image launch, new challenge and our first ever blog hop, where some fun prizes can be won. 

Welcome new Dressy Girl Maritha

Day 3 of welcoming our new Dressy Girls, Today we would love you to meet Maritha 

My name is Maritha and i´m 43 years old. I have three children and one fiance ;) I have worked in a preschool all my life and still love to do that.

I started this hobby 2010 and don´t think i´ll ever stop! I don´t have a special style because i like to try A LOT of things out and i do believe that i need more hours of a day!!!!

If i did have to pic a special style that i like the most....hmm...then i think i would pic CAS (clean and simple). I looove to decorate my cards but sometimes i think if you coolur a stamp up really nice,then that is what make the card look so stunning so there is no need for a lot of flowers to make it pretty.

And here is some of Maritha's work featuring All Dressed Up images

We hope you will give Maritha a lovely Dressy Welcome.
