I had a little "quiet" time this week so I was actually able to stamp just for fun! I don't always get the time to make a card "just because". I've been dying to ink up some of Kimmie's Moonlight Whispers images since I started carrying them, but most of the time I would sell out so quickly that I didn't want to grab one for personal use. So I decided to use one of the older images. I also wanted to play around with one of the new Tim Holtz edge dies...
This little frazzled girl is Charlotte. She reminds me of what I must look like by the end of a hard day with my kids!! LOL I used to own an in-home daycare and I am SURE I looked like this on occassion!! Hair all wild and sticking up with a twitch in my eye!! Although I never had a kid's eye fall out!! ROFL!!
I used the Tim Holtz Scroll die along the side. I attached the papers first, then die cut both layers together...
Below is a view of just the front of the card, but I love how the papers on the inside show through when it's closed...
Here's a close up of Charlotte. She was embossed in black and watercolored with Twinkling H2Os...
I'm entering this in the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge this week - lots of flowers. I used some of my new Primas along with a Basic Grey Swirl. The DP is MME.
Thanks for stopping by! Happy Stamping!
