Big congrats to Elizabeth (palparis) for being our FS today! Elizabeth and I live one town apart and we make cards to sell at our church for the various holidays and at our Church Fair. We used to hold card making workshops at church for several years. I attended many Creative Memory and Stampin' Up parties at her house as well!
So I'm familiar with her gallery and went looking for her sloth card, as I remembered seeing one and I wanted to get out my sloth Sizzix die that I bought on sale some time ago. He/she is a rather large sloth so I had to make my card 5"x5".
Here's Elizabeth's fun sloth card that she had made for an IC challenge. I love the sentiment she used!
I pretty much copied her card - my sloth is a different die with layers - I added eerie eyes to it, and sanded the kraft core papers to give it some texture. I used a piece of Forest DP for my background and used a typical sentiment for a sloth! The sloth and the leaves are popped up on foam dots.
So happy for you Elizabeth for being the FS this week!

Really SO cuter, Julia. You have a special card-making friendship which is wonderful. The sloth has a wonderful texture like DP(?) and the eyes are fabulous!

How nice that you actually know Elizabeth and get to stamp with her. So you know just which card to CASE. Love this textured sloth with his yellow eyes!
