A Hooga Booga Sketch

I decided that I needed some stamping therapy today, so my nephew was patiently wheeling about my house in his walker chasing the dog while I stamped a little. Luckily, I have been thinking about this card since I saw the sketch this morning, so when I sat down to make it, it was easy peasy!! Before I get into all the details, here is some news about all the happenings over at My Favorite Things. On Monday, Michelle posted the weekly spotlight. This week’s spotlight with My Favorite Things is on the 6″ x 6″ paper packs. They are currently available in Spring and Summer collections. There are 25 sheets per pack, five patterns, five sheets of each. Be sure while you are there to check out the matching ribbons, as well as all the new sparkly goodness that MFT has to offer!! We also announced the new Bubble Bin? The Bubble Bin is a selection of stamp sets that may be retiring or there may just be too many of a particular set in inventory that week. Each Monday the sets will change, quantities may be limited and sale prices will run from Monday to Sunday (or until they’re gone), so be sure to check it out each week to see if there’s something you “need” in the Bin! Also, this weeks HTDT tutorial, as well as the weekly challenge, is up, and our very own Amy has done a BANG UP job!! Her cards really are some of my most favorites, and her style is one that I envy. She is teaching Paper Pleating this week, so be sure to check it out!!
Okay, before you go into overload, and my nephew gets bored, here is my card for today's Sketch Challenge. I chose to use my Summer Paper Pack(the one that is on sale..hint hint) and the matching ribbon(actually the pink one is from the Spring Pack and the organdy from the Summer). I paper pieced my girl monster from Hooga Booga, and then colored the rest of her with my Copic markers. Her face was cut out separately too, to give it more dimension. Then I covered her and her hair bow with Dazzling Diamonds glitter using my two way glue pen. The flowers and brads are from MFT(couldn't find them on the site, so I think they may be unavailable). Okay, his patience is wearing thin...gotta run!! Have a great day!!
