If Friends Were Apples....


....I'd Pick You!! Don't you love Milton's Fall Harvest?! I think the moose images that Crissy draws for High Hopes are some of my absolute favourites!!

I chose some plaid Three Bugs in a Rug patterned paper as my inspiration and worked the card around it. The card base is a 6x6 Real Red square with Kraft cardstock for matting.

I stamped Milton on Neenah smooth cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used my Copic markers to colour him in. The colours I used are: E31, E34, E40, E42, E43, E25, E27, R24, R27, R29, R21, G82 and BG72.

I sponged the frame of the focal layer and also the dp using Antique Linen ink. I stamped the sentiment on the Kraft layer, added some Kraft taffeta ribbon and also attached some Prima hydrangeas with Basic Grey brads. Then I layered the main image on Close to Cocoa cardstock and pop dotted it!! Isn't he a sweetie??



Well, I'm off super early this morning to head to London for an all day CPR recertification course....blech. I hate this kind of stuff. I wouldn't mind just sitting there and talking and watching movies but it's when you have to get up in front of the class and do stuff on the mannequins that weirds me out. Ugh.

Anyhoo, tonight the girls (my daughter and her BFF) and I are driving to my parents' house about an hour and a half away, as tomorrow we are throwing my sister-in-law a baby shower. We have lots to do and tomorrow morning I won't be posting as I'll be too busy doing shower stuff, but I'll be back with the High Hopes challenge on Sunday.

Have a super weekend!!
