Hugo & Chesterfield


Did you check out the new images that Whipper Snapper released yesterday? See I told you there were other images besides snowmen and penguins ;) Today I have some critters to share with you. First up, meet Hugo! Hugo was the first image that I colored and put together when I was asked to make samples for this release. There is just something about him that makes me smile - even if he does look forlorn! I think Hugo would work as a Get Well card or in this case a I miss you card. The sentiment comes from Anna Wight's Sweet Expressions Cling Mount set. Have you checked it out yet? I've plugged it enough :) It's one of my favs! I covered Hugo and the flower with lots of Stardust Stickles. Maybe that will help cheer him up!



Changing emotions, meet Chesterfield. Don't you love the names of all of these stamps?? Chesterfield is one happy snail. He can easily bring smiles to mailboxes around the world. Not too many snails can do that you know! I covered his spots and parts of the flower with Stardust Stickles. The highlights were done with a Sharpie Poster-Paint pen. This image would work for so many occasions, but I had to go with the obvious. The sentiment and little letter come from, you guessed it, Anna Wight's Sweet Expressions Cling Mount set. I followed Sketch Challenge 249 for the layout. Thanks for stopping by today!!
