Hello Folks!
Thanks for peeking in for today’s Card!
The Inspiration Challenge is from
Inspired by…112 (IB112)
Cacti!
Here is the Challenge!
I only have one stamp with a cactus…from a Meercat Stamp Set!
I went with it!
Here is my Card!
I had to add the iguana lizard! He is cute!
Here is the inside of the Card!
I masked off half the stamp sentiment…
Once to stamp the greeting,
and second, to stamp the inside sentiment!
They are both on the same stamp…
…but I decided to make it serve a dual purpose!
Isn’t that meercat just too cute?
