I'm back for a second post today. I saw the challenge over at
CAS-ual Fridays CFC64 yesterday, and I had an idea right away. I just didn't know if I'd have time to make the card this weekend. Well, I managed to put my idea on paper...and then cardstock :)
Here is the challenge:
A clean and simple project featuring things you'd see in the sky.
And this is the idea that popped into my brain:
This little squirrel-y guy is part of the Hang In There stamp set from Paper Smooches. I've used him several times before and he's such a fun little character! The stamp has his arms reaching above his head. Well, I decided to cut his arms and paws off - oh dear, that doesn't sound good. Anyway, then place his paws over the edge of the cloud as if he's holding on. I gave him a shiny nose with some glossy accents, then I just HAD to add some google eyes. Had to.
And you know what? This card turned out just the way I pictured it. That really doesn't happen very often...lol.
Thanks so much for spending a minute or two at my blog. I hope you'll leave a comment!
