Awesome Otters For the Stampin’ Dreams Blog Hop

Hey Y'all!

Today on the Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop, we are sharing projects made with the theme "Furry Friends." Have you seen the FREE Saleabration set, Awesome Otters? These little guys are so stinkin' cute! And so much fun to color.

I also wanted to play along with the Global Design Project's Color Challenge, so I used those colors for this card:

Did you notice they all start with an "M?' I wonder did they do that on purpose?.....hmmmmmm...By the way, if you feel like you are "stuck," your crafting Mojo is gone, find a challenge to participate in. They give you a great jumping off point.

My furry friend is Oscar the Otter-yes, I named him. Don't you? Don't answer that, people will think you are as crazy as I am lol! I combined him with the Sweet Conversations bundle

This image of Oscar made me think of him holding something, so I put some twine in his hands and attached a heart cropped with one of the dies from the Sweet Hearts dies so it looks like he is holding a little banner. You have to fussy cut the little guy-no dies-but it's not hard! I colored him with Stampin' Blends, then popped him up with dimensionals onto a die cut from the Hippo & Friends dies (I have to look them up every time because I call them the Hungry Hippo dies-go figure) that I had added some Mango Melody ink to with a Blending Brush. I stamped 3 rows of hearts, alternating Mango Melody and Magenta Madness. The sentiment was stamped in Misty Moonlight. This could be used for a Valentine card, although that's not what I made it for. It is a thank you card to a special friend because, well, she is "otterly awesome!" Make sure to visit everyone and see their Furry Friends-I wonder if they named them? Lol!
