This whole card was waiting to be made. The little chickie image had a ladybug in it. I just happened to buy another little ladybug stamp. Them my daughter asks me to make a baby card with......ladybugs! Then for the sketch challenge, instead of cutting out a circle, I just bought a new circle stamp that was begging to be used.
I just love it when things start flowing, so to speak. So, here's how it all "flowed".....
Stamped the chickie image on w/c paper, colored w/copics, versa marked and clear ep'd it. Rocked and rolled my new circle stamp with summer sun and really rust. Stamped over the image. Cut it out using the squiggly coluzzle. Stamped the ladybugs, colored w/copics, clear ep'd them and cut out w/circle punch. Sponged edges w/sail boat blue.
Cut out a rectangle of brown cs, cut out my different sizes of my new dp, glued them onto the brown cs. Sponged the edges w/distress ink-tea dye. Popped up the circle image, added the ladybugs, dew drops and caterpillar that I colored w/copics, clear ep'd and cut out. Glued this all onto a yellow/orange card.
Hope my daughter likes this, as does the one receiving it. I had fun putting it altogether. TFL :0)

You're uploaded a challenge card ~ Yeah! This is super sweet. Oh, Cathy, you are just way too cool as a stamper. Ever think about going over to those 2 stores you mentioned to teach some classes? They'd be lined up 'round the corner, girl! This is too fabulous!
