Happy Tuesday!  I took the day off yesterday and did some organizing in the studio.  I let my mother, aunt and sister go through all my extra cards Sunday and I had a few left over that I wanted to organize into categories and keep.  I also got energetic and labeled all my Copic markers.

Now that my studio is clean and little better organized, I really wanted to stamp this morning.  I thought that one of the images from There She Goes would be fun today and that’s were I headed . . . right to the potty humor!

The image was colored with markers and Koi water brushes.  I also haven’t used my Cuttlebug Embossing Folders for quite awhile and decided I needed to that as well.  Not much more to tell here, except that I truly needed something fun today!

  • Stamps:  Tastes Like Chicken from There She Goes
  • Paper:  Canson Watercolor; SU Basic Black; Neenah Classic Crest Solar White

Tastes Like Chicken!

Smiley from millan.net Morning all!  I hope everyone had a terrific day yesterday.  I unpacked from my Dallas Adventure, sorted laundry and generally got caught up on things.

Just before I left for Dallas, Jessica Knutsen, owner and creator of There She Goes Clear Stamps, emailed me and asked if I would be the April Guest Designer for her.  Now typically when someone contacts me like this, the stamp set must be hilarious and one Her Royal Badness would love.  Jessica emailed me a photo of the Tastes Like Chicken set and I knew immediately that I had to work with it.

I’m sorry I missed the Blog Hop with the other girls on the team, but being in Dallas cut my time in preparing.  Anyhoo, here’s my first card from Tastes Like Chicken!

I water colored the possum with Ranger Distress Reinkers and then cut the image and panel behind it out with Spellbinders Petite Oval Nestabilities.  The sentiment tag is cut from Spellbinders Round Top Tag Shapeabilities.  All the edges were sponged with SU Basic Gray.  To attach the sentiment, I found an old black button in my stash and sewed it to the tag with DMC floss.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a fabulous day!
