The Eyes have it!

I restrained myself and only bought 2 stamps this weekend at the rubber stamp expo. This is one of them. Isn't that the cutest stamp? OMG I just love them!! The stamp is actually called "Eyes" and at the moment I can't remember who makes it, but I love em!! I have another adorable stamp to use and post tomorrow too!!


The image was stamped in Basic Black on Whisper White cardstock. Then I colored them in with my Prismacolor Pencils, blending them with gamsol and a stump. Then I took my two way glue pen and Dazzling Diamonds glitter to glitz up the little guys' eyelids, noses and eye...um...stems (for lack of a better word).

The card base is Green Galore, and on this I added a small piece of Only Orange cardstock stamped with the "On the Spot" background. To finish up the card I stamped the "Dotted" bg on a piece of Tempting Turquoise cardstock and mounted the image onto it. I added a piece of Hodgepodge Hardware with a Tempting Turquoise brad to the left side. Then I tied a piece of orange grosgrain ribbon to it!

Hope you like it, I'm totally loving this stamp!! More cards to come now that I'm done with the billion swaps!!

Thanks for stickin' with me!

Hi Cori,this is a very cute card! Love the googlie looking sparkly eyes.
I was worried about you since I hadn't seen you post for a couple days. Yes I've been a closet blog reader for a bit now, finally decided it would be best to come out and let you know I'm here everyday, looking at your wonderful cards. Keep 'em coming girl, I love them all!
