Isn't this little cutie from Stampotique just so funny? I couldn't resist pairing him with the sentiment from Paper makeup Stamps. He's my first Stampotique character, and I have a funny feeling that he won't be my last!I had loads of inky fun putting this card together and felt ever so slightly thrifty too as all the cardstock came from my scrap box. I took a hint from the wonderful Ms Capper-Sandon's article in the July Craft Stamper and re-cycled some cardstock cut from a previous project.
I've made this card for a colleague called Paul. Paul is leaving his job as a Library Development Officer to follow a new career path as a writer and performer. We've had plenty of laughs over the years (especially over Paul's misguided belief that he bears an uncanny resemblance to Johnny Depp) so this smiling fellah seemed a perfect way to say goodbye and good luck.I'm going to enter this card for the current Stampotique Designers Challenge#33 Use your scraps and the Wedding inspired The Daring Cardmakers Challenge 'Something Old, something new...' My something old is the 'backing paper', my something new is that new stamp, my something borrowed is the idea of re-using 'waste' card and the something blue is the blue Distress ink!!!
Unfortunately, I photographed before the Stickles had dried so it looks as if I've created a slightly odd wet-look butterfly.
I've noticed that she is one of the images that have made it into cling and I really hope that someone in the UK starts selling these cuties asap!
This card is for my friend Chris. She is a talented gardener, so I riffled through my stash for sweet 
This is my submission for the 
The May challenge themes are Friendship, Mother's day or Fantasy. I went with Friendship and decided to create a card to look like a crazy Polaroid photo (remember those???) of two friends just messing around and having a girly giggle! I also went with the challenge colours... sort of!
