Fun{tashe}tic and a pic

Hey there my friend!  Welcome, welcome!  I will save the pic for later, right now I have a card to share.  A card that I consider to be my bravest move yet.  Aside from glitter, spray mists are my next least fav.  BUT, I have since changed my mind.  Embellish has a fabulous color palette along with the use of paint or spray mists.  I really don't like to get that messy when I craft so I was apprehensive.  Until that is, Jennifer McGuire's Inspiration Showcase class.  I am branching out!  Oh, I also made it 4 inches square, so it fits with the latest CAS-ual Friday challenge!  Score!

Starting with Walnut Stain Distress Ink and some pearlized water, I took a paint brush and saturated it with ink.  I then flicked the brush across the card front several times and let it dry.

Once it dried, I stamped a turquoise strip and my sentiment in brown.

Lastly, I stamped my mustache image in gray on Smokey Shadow paper, cut it out and popped it up.  I then rounded two of the corners of my card, and of course added a bit of bling!

Here is a look at the inspirational pic:

So a bit different for me, but overall I really like it!  Now how bout a pic?  We decided to expand the family and adopt a few pets...for their eggs of course!  Check out our new Barred Rock chickens.  We named them Sassy and Gretchen.  They are a hoot!

Thank you for humoring me.  I just had to share and I will show you their coop at some point too.  Right now John is still building it, so these gals have been living in a small cage!

Have a great day,
Lindsay
