Thank Ewe!!


I think I'm hooked on Tent Topper cards now.....thanks Colleen!! *wink* They are just so fun and cute! And I love my Penny Black Sheep....I mean Ewe! I call her Eunice (Ewe-nis.....get it...heehee).

I started out with a square Whisper White base and chose some of my favourite distressed looking patterned paper by Daisy D's. Then I rounded the bottom corners with my SU corner rounder. I stamped Eunice in Archival Versafine Black Onyx ink on shimmery white cardstock and used my SU markers to colour and shade her. I used Certainly Celery for the grass, Pretty in Pink for her nose and ears, Regal Rose on the flower and left butterfly and Bashful Blue for the right butterfly and shading. Then I doodled the border with my Basic Black journaler. I punched her out with my Mega Circle punch and then the mat is in Certainly Celery using my Giga Scalloped Circle punc. I added some of my green Prima flowers with white brads and then stamped the sentiment with my Karen Foster Snap Stamps!

So yesterday I went for a little road trip with my friend Donna and it was so much fun. I love introducing friends to new things and especially new stamp stores!! And of course, they call me 'The Enabler' (said like 'The Terminator'....hahahaha). We went to Stamp Art in London, of course! And Nancy was so welcoming and so very helpful! In fact that was one of Donna's comments about our visit. Any time we had a question about any product or technique, Nancy was quick to share her knowledge and thoughts with us. I picked up a couple of new stamps (one is a Penny Black Hedgehog stamp, of course) and some watercolour paper to try out. Also, in case you are in the London area and are looking for some of the Marvy Uchida scalloped punches, Nancy does have some ovals and squares in stock!! Tell her Kimmie sent ya!! *wink*



Oh and how cool is this?? Julee and Colleen both tagged me as a Rockin' Girl Blogger!! Nobody has ever called me Rockin' before!! Heehee!! I'm so excited!! And since I could never choose just 5 people to tag, because there are SO many Rockin' chicks out there, why don't you tell me who you think has a Rockin' Blog!! Just leave me a comment here and tell me whose blog YOU think rocks!!!
