Sending You Gnome

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Last week our Craft Group met and our hostess had stamped some
gnomes for us to color and put on cards.


I was having a hard time coloring that day and ended up with gnomes in 
the trash, but I had stamped and colored some of these gnomes when my friend
had lent me the stamps and dies at an earlier time.  Those gnomes were waiting
patiently to find their place on a card.  

Freshly Made Sketches to the rescue!

Here's Narelle's sketch

The gnome was colored with Copics and the background is a new embossing 
folder that I just had to buy after seeing Donna's fabulous cards.

I'll complete the sentiment when I know what I'll send it for.  I'm thinking it would
make a good get well card.  A cup of hot tea and a good book always make me
feel better.

I'll take this to the Darnell's NBUS gallery too since this is the first time
I've used this embossing folder and Jan's gnomes.

What an adorable card, Bonnie! That little gnome is the cutest, and you've colored him perfectly! I think this sketch is one of the all-time favorites from FMS, judging on the amount of entries in the gallery this week and yours is one of the sweetest!

....and he means every kind word that he says! He's cute as a bug's ear and would make anyone and everyone smile. Cute card, Bonnie!

Some things just make you happy and put a big grin on your face. And if you're lucky, make you laugh out loud. Of course this cute little man fits the bill. Absolutely love your creation. Your craft room must resemble a well stocked craft store. In to the woods embossing folder! Perfect - where else would this little man live? What came to mind immediately was "sending you chocolate kisses and get well wishes". Somebody is going to be mighty lucky to receive this card.

Oh, that gnome is so cute Bonnie and your coloring is perfect. He is perfect for the FMS sketch. Love the textured background. I am sure he will bring a smile to whoever receives him for any occasion.
