IB120 Cute Critters


Hey stampin' peeps!  It's Thursday already, and time for a new Inspired By challenge!!!  Eeeek, this picture is SO stinkin' cute!!  I realized that I don't have any hedgie stamps, and this kitchen set almost made me go out and buy some!  Check this out:


I remembered to use the optional sketch too--woohoo!


The only "cutesie" animal stamp that I could come up with right off the top of my head is my Woodland Greetings from CTMH.  I stamped three of them, colored them with Blends, diecut them out, and here we go:



I popped them up on a circle of Lemon Lime Twist, embossed with a Decorative Dots EF to mimic the texture on the cookie jar, and I used sentiments from a retired SU set called Hi There:

  

The gingham is some digital paper, and I added some Daffodil Delight scallops to add to the bright colors!  The inside was stamped with a past Paper Pumpkin birthday sentiment:


I think these little critters would bring a smile to someone's face, as they did mine!  I hope you'll play along with our FUN inspiration photo this week!  Be sure to stop by the Inspired By blog to see the cute creations the DT made as well!  Thanks for popping by!

Since we couldn't see Cassidy for Easter, I gathered up a couple of past projects I had made, tucked in a couple of pieces of candy and sent them off to her!!  I have been trying to mail her puzzles and jokes each week as well!



Enjoy your day and be blessed!  And if you're looking for my Tic Tac Toe post, you can find it here!
