A Happy Life......


I guess I'm still stuck on the 'Creatures Great and Small' kick!!! I've discovered that lots of my stamps have little creatures in them.....and this one is no different!

When I went to Petrolia last week for lunch with the girls and went to Phebe's store, I picked up a few stamps (really....only a few because I'm trying to stay on a budget). I just now realized that every image I bought has a little creature on it!! Guess I like cute critters or something!!!

This card features a new Whipper Snapper stamp that I love!!! It's called Birdhouse in Flowerpot and I think it's just too adorable. I've seen that birds are all the rage right now, but I don't have very many bird images. Hmmmm. What should I do about that?? *giggle*

I stamped the image on Wausau bright white using Archival Brilliance Graphite Black ink and coloured it with my Copics. The patterned paper I used is from the White Out Collection by We R Memory Keepers. I used Bashful Blue for the square card base and matted the main image on So Saffron and Ruby Red. I used my distressing tool on the strip of dp across the middle and added some striped grosgrain ribbon. I pop dotted the main image after I used my ticket punch on the corners and finished it off with some blue brads. The sentiment is one of my favourites from Papertrey Ink.

Well, today I am working the afternoon/evening shift from 1-8:30pm and I have to work on a birthday card for Emileigh this morning.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!!!
