Sweet Dreams

  We have had a few warm sunny days lately and it has made me think about afternoon naps in the warm sun. 

I personally have not gotten along well with hammocks in the past. I am not co-ordinated enough apparently to be able to get my body in them and keep it there. My attempts often end up with me landing on my butt on the ground - it is a sight to see and worthy of a comedy show should someone catch it on video.

If I could keep myself in one, I am sure I would look like this adorable ant on the "Sweet Dreams" stamp from High Hopes Rubber Stamps, snoozing and dreaming a little dream in the sun and hoping my dreams come true.

 After stamping and colouring this cutie with alcohol markers, I cut him out using a slash stitched round corner die. Since I didn't have a die one larger then the one I used, I traced the outside of the die and hand cut it for a card stock piece to back it with. I combined three different lines of paper to create my design, stamped and cut the sentiment to size and mounted it on matching card stock. A simple bow and some enamel dots finish off my card.
