TPS Bloghop Featuring Evie *Updated*

Hi there, I'll bet you're looking for the TPS Blog Hop, aren't ya? And you hopped over from Louise's, didn't ya?

So, pretend there's a project here, I know, this is incredibly tacky, isn't it.....
I wil have something up soon, I'm having some technical difficulties in the way of a toddler dropping my camera on our sidewalk yesterday, so wish me luck, lol!!


Ok, so you can see that I am back in action here. I sort of man handled the camera back into form, it had just seperated luckily, it actually snapped right back into place. Alas, it would not work!! What could it be? Some internal mechanism? No.... the batteries..... Little Buddy took off with my rechargeables and left me with some random ones he found somewhere, someplace.... Now, where are MY batteries!??? I tell ya, I can't have my back turned to him for more than 10 seconds without him getting into something!! That is why, I must craft in the dead of night....


So I made this card with the newly released Evie from the Lil Victorian Steampunk release, illustrated by Christina Dee for Tickled Pink Stamps, she's coloured in Prisma Pencils, stamped in Sepia, the paper is Bo Bunny and the text paper is by Tim Holtz, the rest is treasure from my stash.

So, are you at all curious what the little fellow DOES with moms camera when he gets his grubby little mits on it? Well, let me show you!!




Thanks for stopping by, and to any revisits that may occur, lol!! Thanks for taking part in my Motherhood Adventure with me!!

Go ahead and hop on over to see what the amazing Yani has provided for your viewing pleasure!!

hugs, stephanne

Gorgeous card sweetie :)

gobeagirl said...

Hi again Stephanne. I can see that I wasn't wrong. Your card is GOREOUS! I love your coloring and the way you highlighted your stamp. She is just beautiful and the flowers are indeed just the perfect touch. I also really enjoyed your little one's take on the world. My DD did that years ago and I made a scrapbook page about seeing the world through her eyes. To this day it is one of my favorite layouts. :O) Have a great day. Hugs, Lisa G

Jenn said...

Mary M. said...

Beautiful card. You also have a wonderful little photographer on your hands!!

Fran said...

Oh Dear, you have a photographer, bahahah (I actually really like his last 2 photos, he must be some kind of cat whisperer to get that close with the camera and not have it run off, lol) Your card is stunning, and totally worth the wait (or it would have been if I was they type of person to get up early enough to have seen your origional post, without pics) I love all the pinks and flowers and lace, it's sooo very victorian and girly and beautiful!!
now... I wonder what my kiddos would take photos of if I gave them a camera... it would probably end up in the toilet, probably best to not experiment then, lol!

Crafterkhush said...
