It is Tuesday so that means it is the Jacksonbelle Tuesday Challenge!

Add black accents.

1 neutral color, 1 other color and black.

Easy Smeasy...

Ooohhh....do you likey my new Martha flower punch? I made the mistake of 'popping into' the Impress shop when I picked up my girl and her friend from shopping...mistake, big mistake...lol.

I used my October Afternoon paper on the new punch and popped a black PTI button on top! The sentiment is from the May Unity Store Kit.

Pssstttt....I've added a Brand New Unity March 2010 Stampin' Store kit to my For Sale page {$29 + shipping}.

I hope that you'll play with us over at Jacksonbelle...

That IS one fine new flower punch and I really like how you let it be the showcase of your card. That little one is too cute as well-they must be friendly creatures if you could get that close to them.

Uh-oh! If I lived anywhere near Impress, I would be in SOOOO much TROUBLE!! I can definitely see the draw for such a great punch though. Love the CAS design here...fresh, fun, fabulous! :>

My Dad and his wife own & run an alpaca ranch with over sixty alpacas. They sure are cute....except when they get mad and spit green stuff!! :>

Hope you are having a great week, Amy! :>

Adorable card, Amy, and those llamas' photos just cracked me up. They're such funny-looking creatures, love their eyelashes.

Gloria Stengel said…

Ok, this cracked me up! The Emporer's New Groove....is where I got the "Gloria and her bad self" reputation. I used to have a graphic in my siggy that a freind made that had the llama on it etc. It was a hoot. I hope they did not spit on you! They do that y'know!
