I opened up my computer this morning and the Bing screen had three baby opposums hanging from a branch and I thought they would make the cutest stamp. Later when I was trying to decide on a card to make today, they kept coming to mind. I drew two because three wouldn't fit.
This card is for the Limited Supply Challenge which was to make a card all about Wendybell since today is her birthday and she was hosting the challenge. The challenge called for using chocolate named paper, making a birthday card or money holder, and making sure there was at least one butterfly. I thought originally that I would try to do all the challenges from this week into one since I see so many people do that, but I could only get part of the WT233 challenge (calling for vintage - I used vintage paper for the butterfly and the tag and an old bead from one of my Mom's necklaces), the color challenge (real read, chocolate chip, and kraft) and the Limited Supply challenge. I so admire people who can do all the challenges in one card - I will keep trying.
Note: I am dedicating this card to Mother Mark - I saw her Glenda the Good Witch card for the Double Dog Dare Challenge and decided to make these opposums be Mothermark wanta bees (notice the black and white hat and bow they are wearing).

Oh I love this! (and it will fit perfectly...shhh....) Lol! I love that this is dedicated to Cindy- she will love the hat and bow! Adorable sis. And you drew this! OMGosh. Remarkable indeed. I think with your skills you really need to be designing stamps. Your layout is great, and I love that bead too! Wow- you are on fire sistah! LYMI!
P.S. I see a MM story about these critters coming already!

OMG! I love this! Snort! Those two are looking quite guilty! I was walking under that aspen tree checking out a location for an up and coming camping trip tea party and as I did, those two nabbed my hair bow and camping hat! Wassup with that???
Stinkers!
What a fun card and I love that it was dedicated to me.....Thank you for the little mention!!! Giggle!
