Sending You Hugs.....and Hugs and Hugs.....

Wow!! There is a terrible summer thunderstorm going on here right now!! Those thunderclaps are LOUD!! And lots of rain.....I may have to wait a while before making my daily trip out to the mailbox!!! OH the horror! *giggle*

Today's card features another underwater creature from the new High Hopes release! I stamped Olivia Octopus on a square of Wausau bright white cardstock and coloured her to match the Groovy Guava in the Happy Me designer papers that I used (it really does match in real life, don't know why the colour looks funky on my screen). Then I coloured the water around her to match Soft Sky...not sure if you can see it in the pic. I used some SU eyelets, stitched grosgrain ribbon and doodled around her frame. I stamped the sentiment on a coordinating piece of dp and rounded the corners of one end. Then I traced around the octopus image with a sparkly pen to show her off!! She's such a pretty Octopus!!



Be sure to head over to High Hopes to check out all their newest releases, Hot Off the Press, if you haven't already!!

Well, I'm in to work this afternoon and working the late shift, but then I am off for FIVE whole days!!! Woohoo!! It's like a mini holiday!! My hubby has the time off too and we are hoping to get away for a couple of day trips or something....not sure yet!!! But I'm looking forward to it!!
