Ee-eye, ee-eye oh! - ISMAKI 09/005 - Isa

They have a fabulous sketch over at Ismaki this week which has been designed by Isa. As soon as I saw this sketch I knew it was just perfect for what I had in mind. These cute characters are by The Greeting Farm "McSplendid Farm" set which is available to buy from Silly Monkey Crafts. This set is packed with stamps and sentiments and there are still two characters I haven't used. I added the text using Studio G Alphabet stamps. The fun paper is Basic Grey Lollipop Shoppe and I just love the vibrant colours - so me!. I found the curly wurly buttons in my stash and they reminded me of the piggies tail. I was a good girl ;-) and as well as following the sketch added in the optional heart!

Hugs

This is adorable! Love those little animals! Wonderful card!

About the prima flowers on my card... I'll see if I can find the name. I am bad about taking them out of the bottles and packages to save space. I will say I have made my own just like these - With my Copic air compressor and plain white flowers.... But I'll keep looking for the name.
