I mean, have you ever seen two adorable little critters having so much fun under the beautiful umbrella of my favorite flower? The sunflower! Yep, that’s right…this new “Mouse and Rabbit with Sunflower” image from Tina Wenke Designs is HOT off the press from Stampavie!

Can I just tell you how much I ADORE these images? I remember when Stuart showed them to us I literally gasped w/ excitement. These “Cute Critters” as the line is called, totally brings me back to my youth and reminds me of one of my favorite series of childhood books.

I can’t tell you how lucky I feel to be designing for a company like Stampavie who continues to have their fingers on the pulse of what AMAZING artwork is! We are so blessed to be a part of this family and I am blessed to be continuing to get to know all of you! You can read more about this and other Stampavie cards by visiting my blog and I hope to see you back here soon!

I started out by stamping my Sarah Kay image and coloring her with my Copics and cut her out with my Fiskars fingertip craft knife. I then stamped the Magnolia Brick wall stamp and colored it with Copics as well, then cut it out. I cut a piece of the cloud pattern paper from Cosmo Cricket and pulled lots of my Catseye inks and my Rubbernecker Kitty Kit Cause for a scene stamps, these are fabulous little nature items to build a background… I adore these! I worked them, and created the tree and the ground in lots of colors.

My giraffe head is attached with glue dots, then the wall with pop dots. The Sarah Kay is then attached 1/2 with pop dots and 1/2 with adhesive so she looks as if she is standing on the corner of the wall. I added a few tiny Prima flowers to the grass, and then needed a sign for the Zoo… otherwise we wouldn’t know why there was a giraffe with his head over the wall.
