Not quite happy with my picture, but it was late when I took it and I couldn't get a picture that I liked at all. Oh well, I do absolutely love my card. I had fun coloring Chelly and popping up her shamrock.

Cute & Fuzzy Somethings

Here is another card that I created on Sunday. It is for the Cute & Fuzzy Somethings challenge at Stamp Something.

I decided to try a tall card since the image is on the large side. This adorable bear is from a friend so I'm not sure who makes it, but I did have a great time coloring it with my copics...I tried to shade/blend but I'm not sure if it shows up well enough in the picture. I kept the rest relatively simple...old DCWV paper, new Michaels ribbon and my EK Success scalloped border punch. I also used the SU corner round punch and the Hi! is from a Heidi Grace stamp set.

A is for ...

Apple and A Note for You!

I used more old stash paper along with new stamps! I've had both the Happy Hopper and the sentiment stamp for awhile, but this is the first time they've seen ink. I also used Heidi Swapp's Edge Distresser on a few of the layers, another thing I've had for a long time and never took out of the package.

The Recipe
Stamps: An Apple A Day ~ Stampabilities Happy Hopper, sentiment ~ Heidi Grace Greetings
Paper: Georgia Pacific, Paper Company, Creative Imaginations
Ink: Tuxedo Black ~ Memento, copics ~ 100, T1, T3, E33, E37, R20, R29
Accessories: Glossy Accents ~ Ranger, edge distresser ~ Heidi Swapp, distressed stripes folder ~ Cuttlebug
