Alota Fun




I had a lot of fun making this yesterday using one of Katharina's sketches. I enjoyed following the sketch in the Penny Black challenge that I thought that I'd challenge myself to using another. This is one of the many Alota stamps I bought a few weeks ago. I think he's a little cutie and was so nice to colour. The sentiment stamp is from Elzybell and the papers are from a Shabby Princess kit. I'm into using kits at the moment!

The sun is shining here this morning. Thank goodness! The rain was battering the streets last night and it pretty much rained for most of the night. Hope it's sunny where you are today - it makes you feel so much better!

    Beautiful card. Love the colors. This stamp is a fun stamp. Will have to see if we can get them in the States. Some of these stamps are really hard to come by.
