Smallest Things

I pulled a retired Sweet Stamp Shop--Mr. Octopus.

This little octopus just makes me smile!  

I used Distress Oxide Inks to create the watery background.

Here are the challenges in which I'm entering this card.

Summer Coffee Lover's Blog Hop Card #1

I am so excited that it's time for another Coffee Lovers Bloghop!  

Here's my first card that showcases Lawn Fawn's Loads of Fun and the little cup is from Sweet Stamp Shop's Sticky Situation. I water colored the t-shirt to give it a tie-dye look. As I haven't had coffee for the last three days (thanks to bad potato salad), I am definitely feeling this sentiment!

Hip to Be Square

Wow, I'm on a roll today.  Here's a fun masculine card for that special "geek" in my life.  I used The Stamp Shop's Mr. Octopus & Too Hip stamps.  Below are the challenges I'm entering this card!  Thanks for stopping by! Hugs, Debbie
