Dino-Mite for Nicola's Sketch #5

Two posts in two days - haven't done that for a while! Made a card for Nicola's latest sketch challenge with this cute, bargain dino stamp - I could get used to this stamping lark :) Coloured the stamp in with my brush markers and blender pen, inked round all edges and embossed the green panel with my Cuttlebug folder. Spotty paper is BG, eyelets are Provocraft and the string is from the garden shed, lol! Oh and the little paper clip is Making Memories. Had lots of fun making it, and my husband was very impressed - you can always tell when he says, incredulously: "Did YOU colour that?" Well, I take it as a compliment, anyway :) I guess he also likes to see more masculine colours once in a while, which doesn't happen very often in a household with four females and only one man...

Right, must make use of the sunshine while it lasts. Thanks for looking!
