There She Goes Sneak Peek {Day Two}



Crayons, paint, canvas, and paint brushes are the tools of every great artist and Torico has created a set that will release our inner child. This set promises to bring out the artist in you. The darling line art in this set will having you pulling out all your favorite mediums and reconnecting to the “grown-up” artist that you are.

Every Child is a 4x6 set that includes a total of 14 stamps and will sell for $15.00.

I had grand ideas for this set but, unfortunately, couldn't make them happen - isn't that always the way?  My time was dwindling and I didn't have time to color one of these adorable images after trying to make my original idea work (picture color-coordinated twine coming out of the point of the crayons...in my head it worked perfectly!)  So, I will admit this was kind of a last-ditch effort that focuses on one of the fabulous sentiments in this set but kind of plays on the fun, whimsical point of the sentiment:

Paper: Whisper White, Taken With Teal, Gable Green (I think)  Accessories: Twine, buttons, Seeing Spots embossing folder

Would you like to win the new Every Child stamp set? Here is what you need to do- visit the Trendsetter’s blogs that are participating in each of the blog hop challenges below and comment on their creations as you go. One of the Trendsetter’s blogs (from each hop day) will be randomly chosen as the ‘it’ blog and a winner will be picked using a random number generator from the comments left on that Trendsetter’s Blog Hop Challenge post. You will not know which blog has been chosen so the more you comment on the better your chances are of winning new stamps!
