Stamp Something DT card and Whimsy Spotlight!

Afternoon everyone! Friday already! The week has flown by it seems, been a busy one here, ready for the weekend for sure:) Hope you've all got some nice things planned for the weekend, whether it's a nice lie in or a day out somewhere:)

The challenge this week over at Stamp Something is to use a favourite layout, I'm totally loving the favourite theme we've had going on for a few weeks, and so does everyone else it seems if the amount of entries are anything to go by! For my card today I've used an old Papertake Weekly sketch by Dawny P, have used it lots and by tweaking a few bits every card has looked different. The image I've used is a Whimsy Hippo stamp-totally, totally love this one! Isn't she just great, with her big bum?! Hehehe! At the end of The Quixotic Paperie Whimsy spotlight week (over the weekend) there will be a fab Whimsy prize given away so keep your eyes peeled over at Elaine's blog;)

Stuff: Whimsy Hippo stamp from here, copic pens to colour, Cosmo Cricket Earth Love paper pad here (absolutely gorgeous btw!), mcgill buttercup paper punch, raffia lace here, pearls fromhere, core'dinations cardstock, distressing tool, buttons from here, silver cord from here

Here's a little close up:~
I'm going to enter this into a couple of challenges: Simon Says Challenge who want to see stitching, and Whimsy Stamps Challenges who are asking us to use our buttons.

Thanks so much for popping by and any comments you might leave-I love reading them all and hopefully will catch up on some blog hopping over the weekend:) Don't forget to enter my blog candy! Hopefully be back tomorrow with some sugary goodness;) Huggles xxx
