Joanne had the clever idea that we should both use our new October Afternoon Report Card paper today for our creations...fun...I'm in!!!
Of course, since I bought the paper with my nephews in mind, I thought it would be perfect to use with one of the adorable new kids from Stamping Bella...I LOVE this new line of characters!!!! I decided to use Noah the Computer Guy because he really reminds me of one of my nephews...crazy hair and all!
I stamped him with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Bella's Bestest Paper then coloured him with copics. I cut him out with circle Nestabilities then layered him onto an Intense Kiwi layer cut out with Labels 3 Nestabilities. I added a little stitching around the edge for interest, but it still has a masculine feel. When my Mom was here visiting recently she went home with just about all the masculine cards I'd created so I'm kinda back to square one with masculine cards and I need to re-stock. :)
The rest of the card is very simple. The white card base is 5 inches square. I layered some Prism Twilight Dark (which I ran through my paisley Cuttlebug folder) then added the fun October Afternoon Report Card patterned paper to the left edge. Aren't the colours just perfect for boys!!! I punched a star from some Prism Papaya Puree Dark then layered a ghost star and a button. I finished the card with two twilight Glitter Dots in the top left corner.
I can't wait to pop over and see what Joanne created!!! And don't forget about this week's Bellarific challenge...it's a nature/flower theme, so get stamping!
Thanks for stopping by!
