Digging Some Paper Smooches...

Hellloooo bloggin' buddies! ;)

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!



Heheh! They're too funny.

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! :)

Wish me luck! :)

Enjoy your day, and thanks for dropping by!

Luck is already on your side, my friend, and she would be silly not to "use" you. Darling card. :-)
