Ellie with Bible

 

Hello there, crafty friends!  Welcome to the Paper Nest Dolls blog!  We are so happy to have you here!  :)

Today, I'm sharing this card I made for my cousin's Confirmation coming up next month.  With Covid, we aren't able to see her receive this sacrament, but her mom asked if we could all send her some cards instead!  I think this sweet Ellie with Bible is perfect for a Confirmation, don't you??

To create this card, I printed the digital image on 80lb. Neenah Solar White cardstock.  I colored her with Copic markers and then cut her out with scissors.

For her skin, I used E000, E00, E21, E11, R20.
For her hair, I used E53, YR30, YR31, and Y32.

For her dress, I used R43, R21, BV02, BV31, and V20.
For the Bible and shoes, I used E42, E41, E40, and E31.

Once I got her cut out, I created some layers using some dies and patterned paper.  I also used Heffy Doodle's Down the Line Sentiments for my "Sending Love" banner.

I adhered everything to my card base and it's ready to be sent off to my sweet cousin!

Thank you again for stopping by the Paper Nest Dolls blog today!!  Xoxo, Amanda

Christmas Angel Ellie with Amanda

 

Hey crafty friends!  It's Amanda Fitterer here with another fun Christmas card!  Do you have your holiday cards finished?  I made this sweet little Christmas Angel Ellie for my Granny.  She is the one who got me into cardmaking many many years ago!  Chances are I won't get to see her for Christmas this year so I wanted to send her something special.

I started with the digital stamp Christmas Angel Ellie and printed her on 80# Neenah Solar White Cardstock.  I colored her with Copic markers.

Once I had her all colored in, I cut her out with detail scissors.  I also created a background for the card using the Hello Bluebird Frames #4 and Welcome Santa Paper Pack from Dress My Craft.

I adhered everything to the card base using 3D foam squares and strips.  Easy peasy!  Here's another photo of the finished card!

Hope you all have a safe, healthy, and fun Christmas!  Xoxo, Amanda

Happy Hanukkah

Hello Crafty Friends! It's Laurie here! Did you see the cute new release called Hanukkah Set? It comes with Mini Owen with Torah, Mini Emma with Challah, a menorah, a dreidel and the Star of David. I was so happy to see such cute Hanukkah images! They are so hard to find. We have friends who have two little boys that I send cards to every year. So, I knew that I wanted to colour up two Owens to represent them for my Happy Hanukkah Card. I can definitely see the younger brother wanting a Torah scroll just like his big brother’s one! Lol!
