One of my nephews is a crazy and fun-loving guy. It was birthday night at his family's home the other night and I wanted to make an unexpected card for him. And here it is . . .

I've loved her since the day she arrived at my studio. She's one of the Slapstick Cling stamps from Penny Black. I stamped with VersaMark and heat embossed with gold embossing powder. I colored most of her with Copic markers. Yes, the entire stamp was colored even though some of it is hidden by the sentiment panel. The crown, cuff trims and spectacle are colored with a gold and red glitter pen. The hearts are colored with the deep red glaze pen. The sentiment stamp is from Technique Tuesday and stamped with VersaFine in Onyx Black, and die cut with a stitched die from Memory Box. The sentiment panel was wrapped with dark red-colored yarn that was attached to the back of the panel. The stamped panel is adhered to a black piece of card stock, and that was adhered to a red A-6 card.
