So I'm enjoying my bounty of Hero Arts stamps and thought I'd make a silly card for my friend
Celeste based on a recent brush with nature she had recently. (What that really means is that she found a dead raccoon under her deck!) After chatting with her online friends, several phone calls and a discussion with a poor man whose phone number is being given out as an animal removal service, the critter is finally gone. May he rest in peace.
I stamped this card using the Hero Arts
Woodland Creatures and
One-Line Messages sets of stamps. I used half of a sheet of paper from the DCWV Green 8 x 8 pad. It was too tall to make a card, so I folded the piece into a Z and stamped the sentiment inside. The entire thing is attached to a gray card base. I wasn't quite sure how to photograph it, but I did the best I could by clipping it closed.
Details for this card are here. (I just hope his spirit doesn't come to haunt me!!)
My second card doesn't have a funky story or anything, it's just a good old card! I used bamboo from the
Asian Frames set and the sentiment from the
Woodland Creatures set. The two papers are new Graphic 45, and I love them.
Details for this card are here.
