Meet Mary Muffler by Sherri Baldy Stamps

Oh the weather outside is frightful . . . .  or it is somewhere anyways.  Today is a nice day here in my new home town.  I don't mind at all that somewhere (but not here) the weather is frightful.  I know many have been slam-blasted the last few weeks with snow and ice. For those of you who are, I hope you are finding ways to stay warm.  I know I sure don't miss all that cold weather and snow!!!!

All of this cold weather sends people hunting for ways to stay warm when they are outdoors.  As such, this wonderful Sherri Baldy Stamps digi is a perfect reminder of just how cute we can look when we go outdoors in the cold.

Meet Mary Muffler. Isn't she beautiful all decked out in her pink?  I colored this digi using my Crayola Colored Pencils blended with gamsol.  However, I used my Le Plume fine tipped pink marker to highlight the fur on her skirt, jacket, and boots.

The card is embellished with two white carnations and one maroon carnation as well as some very pretty ribbon and lace. Of course, it wouldn't be complete without a few pearls to go with the lace now would it.

It is not uncommon for me to leave a sentiment off of a card I make when I do not yet have a specific reason for making the card. thus, I don't have a drawer full of cards that I can't use.  I think she would make a great "cheer you up" card, or even a "birthday" card for someone.

You can find this great digi in the Scrapbook Stamp Society Store here.


I am entering this card in the following challenges:


  • Scrapbook Stamp Society monthly challenge, which you can find here.  This card is for the Pink Challenge.
  • My Craft Spot Monday Challenge Frosty Days, which can be found here.
  • Perfect Sentiments Challenge Winter Wonderland (PSC61) which can be found here.


I hope you will join us for this fun month long challenge!
