Today I am so excited to share with you the newest addition to my shop, Fresh Brewed Designs, sweet little Hannah Belle. Through the hop you will see several different Hannah Belle's. They are all drawn freehand, all a bit different from the next and all have a personality their own, but they are all created after my own daughter, Hannah.
She inspires me to do many things. She is an amazing little girl. This past Sunday she gave her heart and life to Jesus Christ and accepted him as her Lord and Savior. I was also saved around her age. It was so wonderful and special. I was balling and so proud.

Challenges: Crazy 4 Challenges: sketch
She is colored with skin copics and prismacolor markers. The patterned papers are by American Crafts. The card stock is by Bazzil. I paper pieced her coat and hat with the same Bazzil paper. The sentiment is from a clear stamp set out of the michael's $ bin. I cut it out with my Nestie scalloped oval set.

My inspiration? .......
She is colored with skin copics and prismacolor markers. The patterned paper is by American Craft. The paper punch is by Martha Stewart. I created the holes around the circle with my cropodile, used a Marvy scallop circle punch for the center, and embossed it using the swiss dots cuttle bug folder. The sentiment is an snag 'em clear stamp.
I do hope you enjoyed the hop!!! Remember, the hop lasts until FRIDAY at Midnight in case you think you missed it or want to play along with the sketch. I will have more cards to share with you between now and then so be sure to stop back by :)
Thank you for sharing part of your day with us. God bless!
