shop 'til you drop

Good morning!

Since Kristi from Hanna stamps is retiring her "But I need it"-set I had to get me one of the last ones. 
And it cries for paper-piecing, right?
So, here we go! I paperpieced as much as possible. The rest of Hanna is colored with my SU markers. I drew the background by hand and colored it with my Aquapainter, some inkpads and good old german watercolor pencil from Faber-Castell. I have to firgure out how to improve my shading skills but I'm pleased with the result so far.

I've learnd from my friend Sandra that you'll have a crispier look of you watercolored image when you put it on a white mat.... so I tried it and it works! Go, check out her blog - you sure will learn something new!!!

Thank you for stopping by today - have a wonderful start in the weekend
Hugs Tanja
