Sami Stamps image - With You
I inverted the colors so the image lines would print white
on a black background so it would fit an inspiration photo.
The umbrella, skirt, and shoes were paper pieced
since I really couldn't color the image

Bonnie Kohane

My 8 year old granddaughter said, Owls are nocturnal, grandma!

I said, this is one tired Dad/Mom owl taking care of 3 little ones.

Sadie, 8 years old (Grandma Bonnie's granddaughter)

Under the Sea

Hello Sami Stamps fans! Rae Ann here to bring you this week's Fun Friday post. I am using one of the newest releases, Roses Under the Sea. You can find her in the shop with her sister, Flowers Under the Sea.

She was colored with Copic markers and I used the Silhouette to cut her out. I kept the background pretty tone on tone to make it look like she was under water.

You still have time to enter our challenge. The theme this month is to use flowers and this image is perfect for the challenge! You have to use a Sami Stamps image to enter, but you can usually find a freebie in the shop.

If you are on Facebook, pop in to the Sami Stamps group and share your creations with us. We would love to see them!
