Oh So Cute Card Set

The very minute I saw this set, Cute Critters from Clear Dollar Stamps, I knew I HAD to have it. The set is complete with 4 clearly adorable animals and matching "Punny" Sayings to help you create perfect cards.








This first card is made on bashful blue, white and kraft. I embossed the white layer with Cuttlebug's Swiss Dots embossing folder (really who can live without that folder?)

I stamped my main image with black StazOn, and then colored him in with watercolor pencils.

"Needle Lift" is absolutely the most perfect sentiment for this little guy and works very well with the "Friends Stick Together" sentiment on the inside.


Ever since I was little I have liked skunks. I certainly wouldn't want to be up close and personal with one, I do however think they are cute and I like the small of them. Yes you read that right, I like the smell. Everyone thinks I am strange but hey what they heck. i guess it reminds me of camping in our backyard as kids, there was always skunks around and the smell was always there.

The flower that this cute little "Stinker" is carrying is simply perfect. I mean it is almost as if the flower is drooping over the smell...lol

This guy is super simple to color and looks great when done. I added the black with water color pencils and then added a hint of grey to outline the white areas.

"When Life stinks, You can count on me"

Wow! I can not even begin to tell you all the styles and themes of cards and other exciting paper craft items I would LOVE to use this ducky for.

This is actually about the 10th card I have made with her. The ducky is SO easy to color in and combined with great sayings you knock out a home run every time. In fact Here is another photo of a set of baby shower invites I made with it.

Hopefully Blogger cooperates and you will be able to click on the picture to see it bigger.





Hey Slowpoke! I completed the inside of this card with a get well soon message. Nothing worse then getting a cold that slows you down.

Again I have to say that I LOVE how quick and easy you can stamp, color and create with these images. Its almost like the simplicity of the great images takes all the thinking out of the process for me.

Well that is all I have for you right now, but I will be back hopefully tomorrow with an off topic post and perhaps so card pics for you, or something along those lines.
