Back in Dec '09, my friend Benzi was the FS. I was not doing any cards in Dec, so I missed her special day. Because she likes sheep & in honor of my Punchkateer friend I case'd her first card, as has become my obsession! I made the striped paper w/ pearlescent watercolor paints. The sheep is punched & mounted on peralescent green paper, same for the tag. I used an alpha set I have & the stamp positioner to line up the letter. Added a rose red bow & mounted all onto rose red c/s.
I wanted to wait to upload this until I was sure Benzi had received it. Here is her first:

Karen, this is just the cutest. As you now know, it has arrived and is in my treasure box. I love this little sheep...just adorable. I kind of hate to look back at my first cards but isn't it fitting I did a sheep? Still love them!!!Pssttt....I think you meant for your keyword to be pnz. Now, you can change it. Thanks so much for, even now, doing a FS card for me. I love it!!
