I have an expansion folder FULL of stamp offs that I have made from my own stamps or stamped off design from stamps of friends. Today I decided to get into that folder and find something to color. I had several of these stamped off and thought he was so cute that I'd pick this one for today. This one is a design that I used from a friend of mine when our Yahoo Group gathered in Des Moines, I think. At least I don't remember that I have that stamp. :)
I colored the design with my Copic CIAO markers and then cut it out using the Deckled Edge Oval from Spellbinders. The top 3/4 of the card base was stamped with a large stamp of the sky with clouds using a light blue ink from SU. Then I decided to sponge some of that same light blue ink onto the oval piece around the colored image.
The image was attached to the card and then a green strip of SU Wild Wasabi card stock was punched with the Martha Stewart grass punch. It felt like the green areas was too wide so I took a piece of white card stock and stamped the Happy Birthday. Using one of the new Spellbinders Banner dies I cut and embossed that piece.
Two more days until our new carpet goes in.................Thanks for stopping by!

This is so pretty, Vicki! I hope spring has finally arrived up there. I want to visit my aunt and uncle in Cedar Rapids soon, but it's got to warm up! I love to visit the Amanas in the spring and maybe a trip to Pella for the tulips!
