This is my submission for Featured Stamper Cincy (YLM... You Love Me). What a wonderful gallery, Cindy! Congratulations on being chosen for this week's Featured Stamper, and thanks so much for letting us all gaze on your creations and case them! It was a hard choice for me, but in the end I decided upon this card:
While I could never come close to how adorable Cindy's card was, I chose this card because of the adorable little footprints her little birdie made. I had just purchased the mouse footprints for the house mouse stamps last week and was anxious to use them. That being said, I did have to make some changes to make the sketch work with my stamps. I flipped the sketch on it's side, instead of a Prima I used a sentiment stamped on an oval and I matted it with a scalloped oval to match the image. I changed the dp and ribbon as well, but kept the integrity of the sketch I believe. I paper Pieced the sick little mousie's blankie, and popped it up, and both image panels are popped up on dimensionals, there are stickles in the flower, white dots made with Signo Gel Pen (Markie's Mom's wanna be's)
This is done in memory of that "pink stuff" the kids all "love" when they are sick. My granddaughter is taking some medicine right now for walking pneumonia, so I was thinking "pink stuff".
Hope you like it! Thanks as always for looking and wow! This is the first Sun. as a new Fan Club Member that I could upload! I got home so late today I wasn't sure I could stamp or not, but in honor of my first Sun. as a member, I just had to!
