Here's another "oldie but goodie" stamp, from the Raggedy Angel set (1997) from Stampin' Up! I think she's adorable in her primitive little dress and heart string, so she's another one of the OLD sets I recently added to my stash. Gotta love eBay! *grin*
I think she has a sweet face, and that hair! After I had her painted, I added some Crystal Fine glitter (from the Martha Stewart line) to her wings. I like that it adds sparkle without hiding the details of the painted image below. But still, that wasn't quite enough country glitz, so I also added a few mists of Coffee Shop Glimmer Mist. That's more like it!
Hello Anna, I love the glitter and I love the Raggedy Angel.
love
Zoe

okay, never mind. It pays to read the fine print. 1997. It's practically an antique! LOL

Yikes, what a cutie! What year was this stamp set? I've been Stampin Up for about 7 years and don't remember seeing this one!

I love this one, too, Anna! Your coloring is spectacular! This is a masterpiece and should be framed!! I'll bet these sets go up in value on eBay every time you post a card!!

This is adorable, Anna. I love it! Awhile back I had searched for some Raggedy Ann stamps and only found the ones from Stamps by Judith. I never came across this one and have never even seen it before! I love it -- and of course, off to ebay... thanks for the tip!!

I love Raggedy Ann dolls! I don't remember this set, but you are going to create a new phase! SU! may have to bring these back out of hiding. Ü

OMG, I remember this set. I don't think I ever saw any finshed card or project done with it except what was in the catty. Very cool you are using some oldies. She looks great.

Oh, I had a Raggedy Ann when I was a little girl, sigh. This is so sweet and nostalgic! Love the misting on top of the image-looks great!

This is adorable! The glimmer mist really is perfect with this card! Your watercoloring is amazing as always!

Reminds me of the raggedy doll you made awhile back :0) Too cute! Did you ever finish that Fresh eggs - chicken coop sign?
Have a great day!

What a precious little Raggedy! What wonderful water coloring, particularly at the top of her little pinafore beneath the heart shaped buttons. BTW, I sure enjoyed your previous posts and was dismayed that typepad wouldn't let me post comments.
