You're otter this world

I was playing with pencils and baby oil again and this Doodle Pantry Water Otter cutie is what I came up with. IRL the fur looks really mottled and textured. I used a water stamp on the background and crimped the centre.

I made it

I've been having trouble with my photos (camera) so I've been playing with it trying to improve my pictures.  Hmmm not so good, lol! 

I went shopping with my stamping buddy and found this guy from Art Impressions, he is hilarious! When I showed my husband he said it was perfect for his brother who turns 50 this month. He even came up with the sentiment. The inside simply says Live, Laugh, Love Happy Birthday.

There are so many sentiments that could go with this guy, he was a real find!

Happy Wedding Day

Friends got married last weekend and this is the card I made for them. I LOVE Kenny K stamps and these stamps were perfect for them. I was very pleased how the tux turned out, I just love my prisma markers!

I added glitter to the vail on both images and to the flowers. I used larger pearls on the outside with smaller ones on the inside.

I folded the edge over by 8cm to create a pocket on the inside and that's where I put the money and knew it would be safe from falling out. It made a fantastic wedding gift! I've entered this into:
