So Glad We're Friends

I did this card last night, late into the night and he turned out great! I masked off the cat (he sits on top of the dog) so that only the mouse was talking into the dogs ear. I LOVE this stamp! This card was done for two challenges. The first was for Whimsy stamps here. The challenge was to do something with Sweetness and Love. Well the poor little mouse so wants to be friends with the dog, that's definitely sweetness! LOL The second challenge was for Saturday Spotlight with Hidden Potential here. The challenge was to make our creations messy by distressing with ink, tearing edges, wrinkling cardstock, etc. So I stamped on tissue paper, wrinkled it and then glued it on to cardstock. I then inked over the wrinkles to define them better. Definitely messy.

Christmas Friends

This is my second post for today since I did this card for a challenge and its due tonight at 8:00. Yes that's cutting it close, lol! The challenge was to do a partial cuttlebug embossing. So the way I did the background it looks like wallpaper on top and paint on the bottom! After embossing I used a Stampin Up sanding block on the embossed section so it looks lighter.

Paper: Confetti cream, bravo burgandy, basic black, whisper white
Ink: bravo burgandy, really rust, real red, more mustard, pretty in pink, basic grey
