SC320: Lucky Changito





Good morning! I made time to work on the SCS sketch challenge yesterday. I love the challenges there, because I can use any stamp of my choosing. Changito is my "go to" guy, so I looked through my options and picked this little cutie...how about that tooth? Adorable!
I remembered that I had a scrap of some paper that I had previously used for a card kit swap; it was not a very big scrap, about 3 x 6 inches. (See 1st photo) It is such beautiful paper, with it's iridescent shimmer. I ended up piecing it to make it work. (I tried to capture the shimmer in the 2nd photo)
Changito is colored with pencils. I had planned to use a charm for embellishing, but decided I didn't like how that looked. I had already glued the image panel down when I decided to add the little shamrocks. Not sure how I am liking the placement, but had to roll with it anyway since it was stuck! LOL
Images: Stampendous "Changito Clover" Clear Set
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper: PTI Stamper's Select and True Black, Reminisce DP
Embellies: Bella Dots
Extras: Prismas/Crayolas/Goo Gone, Spellbinder's Nestabilities
Thanks for stopping by today; I hope your day is a good one!

    Beautiful card Angela. I think the little shamrocks go well with the Patterned Paper and image. Awesome.

    Look at you go ... getting St. Patty's cards made all ready. You are on it girl! and this is so cute!! I adore this little guy and have not seen this image yet! Your paper is a perfect fit for this card (and isn't it nice to use up some scraps!).
