Have you guys seen the new line of stamps designed by Kim Hughes? The first release was two months ago, and I have been absolutely smitten ever since. Each image is just filled with happiness.
So imagine my delight when I saw this month that Kim was going to be picking a guest designer for the month of April! I just had to play along -- I mean, how cool would that be?! Kim has been one of my stamping idols since I first found her blog many years ago, and it would be so fabulous to have the chance to work with her.
So I got a little stampy this morning with a set I got in the mail last week. I bought the set for the adorable beaver, fish and dog images, but this morning it was the worm that caught my eye!
To make the card, I layered some fun new October Afternoon paper on kraft cardstock. Then I colored the worms with Copics (I gave them ridges like real worms, of course)! I glued the worms behind a panel of brown Core'dinations paper that I scuffed up a little to look like dirt. I added a triple ribbon treatment, tied on some buttons and finished the card off with the super cute sentiment tag. And finally, I added some Glossy Accents to the worms' eyes to make them really "pop."
Not my usual color scheme... not a stamp I would have normally started with... but it's just what inspired me today!

Who'd of thunk, that worms could be cute, I mean besides a fish? But these birthday worms are quite cute! I like how you even made them coming out of the dirt! Cute card!
