well my scanner almost puller through. it decides that whatever i scan needs to get cropped on the sides. oh well.
my second order from high hopes came in, (thank the card gods!), just in time for my card meeting in a week. (we each make 10 of the same cards for each the 10 members, so when we exchange we all have 10 different cards.) this month we were to make paper tole cards, what better way to show this then with Leo the Lion.
his nose, face, tuff on the tail, main, and front feet, were paper toled. this took FOREVER and a day to cut out the main 20 times, (the body had the main and then the actual main). i can say i almost couldnt cut them out anymore. but i did!!!
the jungle leaves and the jungle flower just came in today. all stamped images were colored with prismas then blended with oms. i added acrylic white paint to Leos nose and highlights on the flower. the grass was bought from Michaels (i wasnt gunna cut anymore lol.) grass came in a 10 pack of die cuts, 5 each of the dark and of the lighter green.
designer paper was bought at a local scrapbook store. sorry forget for makes it. but it tied in soo well with the card. i had a fun time making this card 10 TIMES! (after everything was cut lol) hope u likey!

Friends are like the walls of a house. Sometimes they hold you up, sometimes you lean on them. But sometimes, it's enough to know they're just standing by.
