Oh my gosh, Joey's football game was AWESOME!!! The boys did so well. I was so proud of ALL of them!!! They did win, 43-0!!! Here is a picture of Joey scoring one of the touchdowns ~
OK, sorry for the diversion!!! Now, on to my card!!! Today's card is based on SCS's featured stamper ~ Liz AKA: Lazy Lizard! You can visit her wonderful gallery HERE! The card of hers I decided to CASE is HERE! I followed her layout although I didn't add the circle to the bottom right of the image because I just COULD NOT find anything to put there that I liked so I just left it off. Here is my card ~
The base of my card is Whisper White cardstock with a mat of Basic Black and then a piece of Bo Bunny DP that I picked up at my LSS. The photo corners are Real Red cardstock and I added black dots with a black marker and added black brads. The strip across the middle is first Whisper White and then Basic Black that I ran through my Cuttlebug using my Birds & Swirls embossing folder. I added ribbon that I got at Michael's. The image is Inkadinkado's Duet stamp that I stamped using Basic Black ink on Whisper White cardstock (Lindsey is getting more of this stamp any day now so if you are interested in one, email her). I colored the red bird and vine using Prismacolor pencils. I colored the little bird using a paint brush and my Golden Wheat Shimmerz. I painted the buttercup flowers with the Golden Wheat Shimmerz as well and then added black brads to adhere them to the card. I added the Golden Wheat Shimmerz on top of the red bird as well because it is VERY important that your birds are glittery!!! LOL!!! I mounted this image on top of Basic Black and then Real Red cardstock.
Here is a close up of the shimmery birds and flowers ~
Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope to be back tomorrow!!! Have a great evening!
