Sabrine the Shmerpi (#20)
Managed to get away from the hustle and bustle for a few hours and finish a custom order Shmerpi – can’t believe this is my 20th Shmerpi creature!
Please meet Sabrine and her little monkey friend :-)


The main requirements were pink/brown colour scheme (with a bit of aqua if possible) and a red monkey. The red monkey was a little challenging and the little lace skirt was a last minute decision :-) I couldn’t find any aqua fabric in my stash that I was happy with so I chose the cute pea-green dotty fabric with little brown birds. I used some of my most favourite trim around her waist – tiny toadstools (from Reprodepot).
My little bub is just about to wake up from her (fitful) afternoon nap, but before I go I wanted to say:
- So good to see the Notebook & Pencil Holders made by Tutti Frutti and 2Paw
- Enjoying these blogs:
And thanks to Ellia for incorporating a little Chibi Doll into her latest cut-paper art piece!
Ok, gotta go – I’m sure I forgot a to list a few other blogs but hope to share more before the end of this week!

Nice one! If I could write like this I would be well chuffed. The more I read articles of such quality as this (which is rare), the more I think there might be a future for the Net. Keep it up, as it were.
