She makes me smile

This is a new challenge using Art Impressions Stamps.  I bought a few at a recent craft fair.  It was so hard to only buy a few, but this one was so cute, there was no choice.  Nellie is now mine.
You can pose her so many different ways, but here, she is looking over a fence.  I did the inside of the card with a stamp from SU that I have  for a long time, but this is the first time using it.  It is called Trees Three.  Then I sponged some clouds with a stencil that I made.  The sentiment is computer generated from a cute saying that I found on the internet.

She is smiling like she knows something that you don't know. 


Maybe she is right!

This was a fun card that I will enter in the Art Impressions Challenge #157 "Make Me Smile"

    You sure did make me smile. This is darling and I love how you designed the card so you can use the front and the back of that stamp. The fence, added grass, and trees are such wonderful details. Love it all. No wonder you had to have Nellie. Did you fussy cut or does she come with a die?
