I am pretty sure this is a first for me in the 16+ years I've been
a paper crafter....I'm celebrating with a card for...
As soon as I got the newest stamps from Paper Smooches, I just
new I was headed for an Earth Day card, no question!
This design is ala my dear friend, Savannah O'Gwynn.
Doesn't this look like something Savvy would put together ?
I am a huge fan of everything she does but she IS the master of whimsy !
I've been collecting sheets of alphabets for about six months now and decided
it was time to start using them and I managed to do that with this card!
'Happy' is from Authentique
'Earth' is from Prima
'Day' is from Echo Park
The base paper is from MME's Fine & Dandy 'Girl' 6x6 pad.
I thought it worked perfectly with these stamps.
I used a little Stickles around the cloud for some additional texture.
How about those tall trees from Paper Smooches ?!
All the paper-piecing was done with a variety of papers
{ see recipe below }
I also pulled out the 'Forest Whimsy' set from PS as well because no
little forest is complete with a a tree stump and a squirrel to join the party!
So happy you stopped by today!
Thank you as always, for all your kind comments
left along the way....
