Hi! This card was made for today's sketch challenge.
I had to smile when I saw that Speedy the Cat had deposited this stamp in the sink this morning! Then, I got really excited when I saw this "smile" sentiment in one of my Pink Poison stamp sets! PERFECT! If you knew Speedy the Cat, you'd know that he prefers bugs to mice....He's just that kinda cat! I once dreamed that he explained to us, (in Darth Vadar's voice), that mice do NOT taste just like chicken!
The image was stamped twice onto watercolor paper and each image was colored with markers. Next, I used an aqua paper to blend the colors. The images were cut out and layered with dimensionals.
The Red and Green backgrounds were run through the Cuttlebug with embossing folders.

OK! So the card is gorgeous, no doubt. But the story is even better. I am still laughing about it. I am imagining Speedy talking on a Darth Vadar voice saying mice don't taste like chicken. OMGosh that is so funny. Thanks for the laugh. I've had a crazy day today. TFS!
