Eat dessert first!

Ha!! If you know me at all, you'll know that could be my life motto!!! I found this Fluffles stamp in my bin.....can you believe I've never used him?? I love Fluffles & used to make a TON of Fluffles cards! Shame on me for not using this one sooner!!



Yes, this one is reallllly bright!! I wanted to make a fun, bright, happy card. Because it's Monday. And Mondays are icky. I rarely make A2 sized cards anymore, & I rarely use JUST a couple of flowers for my embellishments!! Guess I felt a little crazy today.....lol!! The image is colored with Copic markers & Prismas/gamsol. I clear embossed the balloon, added Stickles to the tiny flames, & I colored the pink icing with my Spica clear glitter pen. The papers are DCWV Nana's Kids & Summer Glitter stack. The flowers in the corner are punched from that same glitter paper, using my EK Success flower punch. The pink plastic flowers were in my stash.




Here's a close up of the cutie......I love that one eye open.....lol.....




Here's a pic of the inside.....used the same papers & colored another Fluffles.....cut it out with my oval Nesties......





And how cute is this "hand stamped" stamp?? I always forget to stamp the backs of my cards.....I have a customer on Ebay who HATES stamps on the back of her cards.....it's a huge issue in the Ebay world......but I have to always remember to do it, or the angel policy police will come & take me away!!

Speaking of Ebay.....that's where this card is headed right now. I actually got the card, the inside, AND the envelope all finished so instead of putting it in the ever-growing pile.....I am listing it now! Usually I put cards aside to finish "later"....even if it's just the envelope, which I usually make, it takes me forever & a day to finish & list it.

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend!! It was very rainy & windy here......much different from the 80 degree day we had on Friday!! Today is so-so.....cloudy & about 60. I'm off to list this card, then run some errands......hope you all have a great Monday!!

I love these fab colours on this card !! Really beautiful.

And I so love that "handmade" stamp. I have been looking for something like this, but have unfortunately not have the luck to find it over here. Just a pity as this one is so beautiful and it gives something extra to a card or other handmade work.
