To enter my blog candy drawing for a Rubbernecker Gift Certificate, please leave a comment on this post telling me what your favorite animal is! I think most of you know that mine is an Owl ... but I do have many other favs I love too!

I will choose a random winner on Wednesday, 6th February at 12 midnight CT.

Good luck!



Ok now onto my card! Today I decided to create a card using one of Rubberneckers frog stamps ..... I just love this guys long tongue. I colored my image using alcohol markers. The verse is one I got to go with some bee stamps from Rubbernecker ... but I figured seeing the fly was buzz buzzing around on this image that it went well here instead of the normal frog sentiments for a change ... it is alway good when we can use sentiments for more than one purpose.

Recipe:

Stamps: Frog eating Flies & sentiment - Rubbernecker Stamps

Paper: White; Black; Always Artichoke & Blue Bayou - SU

Other: Black Ink; Soft Sky & River Rock SU Inks; Black Brads; Foam Tape

Stella said...

Hmmmm....favorite animal? I guess my favorite animal has always been a cat, even though I've learned that I'm allergic to them. Your frog card is awfully cute though. I think I could learn to like them too....at least as a stamp!

My favourite stamp animal are teddy bears, but I am terrified of real bears IRL. My fav real animal has to be cats, although I have allergies to them. We have a short-haired black cat named Princess, and she sure lives up to her name!

What a clever card! My favorite animal is the cat. We are babysitting for a few months a persian kitty. She is very temperamental but very very cute!

My favorite animal is an owl, too! That's actually why I took a look at your blog the first time, and now I visit regularly. I actually have a whole room dedicated to my owls at home.

Beth M said...

Gosh that is a hard question. I love most animals. For pet animals it would be a cat or dog. But otherwise I love bears.

I do love my cats and dogs, but when it comes to stamps, I think lately I think I've been buying alot of bird stamps. They seem to be everywhere now.

I do love the owl, of course, but my FAVORITE animals are COWS! I collect cow everything! I have cow collectible figurines and lots of cow stamps. My blog address is a little hint to my addiction! http://moosisk.blogspot.com LOL
