I was so excited to learn last week that I had won one of the new stamp sets by There She Goes called A-Z and 123, which is a set of 70 alphabets and numbers. Thanks, again, Jessica! I'll be posting a card I made using this set next Monday when I upload our next CCEE challenge.
In the meantime, I also ordered the Happy Day set from There She Goes, and it has some of the cutest images and sentiments! I especially love this cute tree because you can color it so many different ways as well as cut out and pop up the tree leaves. The image I used here is all one scene, but there are also individual stamps in the set. So much versatility!!! I cut out and popped up the white clouds over the clouds I initially stamped and colored blue for a bit of cloud lining. Don't those darling birds look so happy?
I colored everything with Copic markers and sponged some bashful blue on the background with my post-it note cloud template. I sponged a bit of barely banana closer to the ground; a tip I learned from my friend Kittie.
I made this card a couple days before my surgery so I'd have something to post to my ever-changing blog. Being a new blogger, I keep learning new things, adding things, and changing things. A big THANK YOU to all my friends who have been helping me with this new adventure!

Charlene, this is the cutest, happiest, card! I love those birdies singing, reminds me of the song, "Red Red Robin." Have been thinking of you and hoping you're not too bored, doesn't look like it!
