Have I got you motivated yet? No? Hmmmm?? How about a card? Will that do it? Ok-ok, I'll stop teasing you.... Here's my card to get you hens rarin' to go AGAIN! LOL!!
Ain't it a beut?? Oh boy, do I ever LOVE this card! I don't think the picture does this card justice because there is some SERIOUS cuteness going on here IRL. *sigh* This little image is called "Curious Buttercup" from Ladybug Crafts Ink. I stamped her onto some Canson Manga Fanboy CS and colored her with my Copics. I matted her with some SU Early Expresso CS and stitched around the edges. This DP is from My Little Shoebox and as soon as I saw those ladybugs on that paper, I knew what image I wanted to use with it. Buttercup's tail is just a waggin as she's rubbin' noses with her ladybug friend! Ok, then I matted the DP with the same SU Early Expresso and then again with white and stitched around the edges. The border punch is by Martha Stewart and I am so sorry, but I cannot remember where I got this ruffly ribbon from, but I SO LOVE it! To finish, I tied some Baker's Twine around the image panel and finished with a BIG red button! ADORABLE right?

This truly is seriously cute! I really love it.... Hmmm, I have seen a lot of people using Kraft CS lately - I have to check, but don't think I have any... I may have some real kraft paper (you know for its original use to wrap boxes) would that work? Sounds like fun.

ReplyDeleteHi Jeanie - just wanted to explain why I've linked a card I made last week - you didn't have a challenge so it's not linked to you but I thought you might like to see it anyway. This is my 'old card' entry and I'll make a new one as soon as I can for challenge #46.

ReplyDeleteYou are getting to be an expensive habit. Every time I visit you blog, you've designed such beautiful card, that I think, I MUST have that stamp. Really!
ReplyDeleteJeannie........love your Curious Buttercup card as I do all the rest of your beautiful card creations. I'm also crazy about that little ladybug paper but can't seem to find it on any My Little Shoebox sites that I go on to. Can you share with me where you order it from?
