Ah, its FRIDAY at last. For me, its been a long week. Husband hitting the slopes in Colorado with friends, me home sick with the boys. But this weeks inspiration piece from Emily and Nicky at Stamping Bella was just the excuse for me to ink up this adorable image and some very cheery colors.
I have a few sheets of Wild Wasabi hidden in my storage shelves, and I grabbed this fun piece of lemon polka dotted paper. I just ordered lots of new buttons the other day, because I was running low, but look at this button I found. eeks, it is nearly EXACTLY Wild Wasabi! Seriously, little things like buttons make me a very happy girl!
The Wasabi panel was run through my big shot with the Paisley embossing folder, and then to unify the top and bottom panels, I stitched everything with my Janome. I tied the grey from the inspiration piece in by using Basic Grey cardstock for my matting.
This was such a fun challenge. I'm already looking forward to whatever Emily and Nicky cook up or next week! You can see lots of samples by hopping on over to Blogabella. Meet you over there? Don't forget to comment on Emily's post (I welcome you to post here, but I don't have the candy.. em does!) for a chance to win some Bella Bucks!
