Welcome to the world, Burton Weenies!

Hi everyone! I am excited to tell you all about the new line coming out from Simply Betty Stamps called The Burton Weenie! Myself and the other Burtonesque Dolls will be putting up a new project every day this week to preview Betty’s newest characters. The first character we are introducing you to is JackJack! Say Hello!!

My first project with him is a simple little card that used a close up cropped version of the original image. I painted him in using gouache.

His hair has varying shades of brown and some streaks of purple in there, cause he’s a cool dude! His sweatshirt is painted in blues and purples, and his clippies are red with some Stickles on top.

The rest of the card has Stickles on random parts of the paper to make the bubble design stick out a little more. I wrote the sentiment out by hand, cut out a little red heart, and covered it in Stickles and Glossy Accents.

Who doesn’t love a pretty boy?! Hehehehe If you love JackJack, you will love all the other Burton Weenies too!! Wanna buy ‘em? Well you are in luck, because they will be available on www.simplybettystamps.com on Friday!!

Make sure you go check out http://theburtonesquedolls.blogspot.com/ to see all the projects the other lovely dolls made with JackJack, and definitely come back every day this week to see all the other weenies!

Thanks for checking this out, have an awesome day, and happy crafting!
