they ink, they bathe.. did you know?!
I got this image in the mail yesterday - thanks to SANDRA letting us know about VICTORIA CASE ART STAMPS in her blog. So of course, I checked out her site and bought me a monstah!!
I couldn't wait to ink up this little guy yesterday and so I did. I attempted some coloring too and it seemed to turn out okay. I played around with the layout a billion times and still am not 100% happy with what I came up with. I would like to attempt this card again, but maybe a larger square card... now to come up with a sentiment for it.. I'll have to get my creative juices flowing!
Again you'll have to excuse the photo - bf had his laptop plugged in yesterday and I could get the image off my regular camera and uploaded. So I resorted to the ol' blackberry camera... I know I know... its dark and horrible....
For this card I used Chocolate Chip for the base, and layere Pink Passion with some dotty patterned paper from my cheap.. sorry, economical Walmart pad of paper. I colored the image with Stampin' Up!'s watercolor pencils and blended with the blender pens. Used a little thin pink satin ribbon and 3 dew drops (the medium pink from the Hyacinth bottle).
So.. how's this little poem for the card?
A big fuzzy monster
I found under my bed
He should be scary
but he’s cute instead
MISTER! you’re DIRTY!
I shrieked like a bell
You need a bath, mister!
You make my room smell!
So off the the bathtub
With my monster in tow
I scrubbed his fur clean
With the bubbles a - flow
You’ll see mister monster
You’ll be as clean as can be
Then you’ll be welcome
To come dream with me!
