Dreams Really Do Come True

Hello friends!  I want to share a card I made for Kim Hughes at Paper Smooches for the stamp set I won a few weeks ago during the blog hop (I won at Teri Anderson's blog).  Have you seen this sweet set?  It's called A Little Lovin:

 
I wanted to say thank you in some way, but this is the only set I own...as of yet.  (Side bar:  I have several sets on my wish list for my birthday...can't wait!)  So I found one of Kim Hughes' free digital download and printed it to the bottom right on a kraft note card.  Here is what I came up with:


When I won this set my dream really DID come true! 

I embossed the elephants onto watercolor paper, watercolor painted them, and fussy cut the image.  I added a strip of patterned paper, dry embossed the top of the background, added a line of dots with a black fine tip Sharpie, and popped up the elephants.  I rounded  the bottom corners to finish.

So, thank you Kim and Teri...I love my new stamps and I have a feeling I'll be getting many more in the near future!

  5. What a wonderful way to show your thanks and happiness Judy, I just adore the strip of pinks to echo the shading on the elephants :)
    I have to say I didn't order that set and every time I see it used I know I made the wrong decision:(
