Monster Mish-Mash


I don't usually go for the *cute* stamps..... but I found these Li'l Monsters hard to resist!!! They just arrived in the mail a few days ago from Green Grass Stamps (which I hope I will soon be carrying on my website). I found this company when reading Amy's Blog Heartfelt Greetings - her cards are always such an inspiration!
-
CARD DETAILS - I stamped the monster images on white cardstock using black Stazon. They were then watercolored with SU Watercolor crayons from Earth Elements and Rich Regal color families. The little bit of green paper is from Basic Grey Phoebe pad - and I threaded some ribbon through the eyelets. I added black dots along the outside edges of the card. The monsters have a little sparkle in their eyes in the form of silver stickles - hard to see in the picture but they are there! Oh yeah... one last detail - the sentiment is from Papertrey - more great stamps and great packaging!

Michelle, this is adorable! Wow, and what a good girl....no flowers and nearly NO layers! What an accomplishment--I'm not sure I could do that on any of my cards I'm such a layer freak! Thanks for your kind words of inspiration both in today's post and in your comments to me on my blog yesterday. I meant what I said, you are my stamping hero!

Hugs,
Amy

What a great card. I have a set from Green Grass Stamps I keep trying to not order. This may have pushed me over the edge! :)

Now these little guys... so adorable. If I weren't on a buying freeze, I'd go right over to their site and order. Love, love this card! Thanks for sharing.

How cute! Whatever little kiddo that gets this will be so very happy! I just love that they made these dingbats into stamps! Such a smart idea!

Super cute card! If you start carrying the monster stamps, I'll definately purchase from you. With two little boys, this set would be a must have for me.
