To dress up this beauty, I've paper pieced her body and heart using papers from Cosmo Cricket. I dry embossed the floral to add the perfect sheepish texture to her! The pinkish sponging on the image panel is done with Tim Holtz Tattered Rose distress ink. Antique Linen distress ink was used on the edges of each panel of the card as well.
The Sugar Creek Hollow design team is showing off this image and the Cardinal digi this week - both are from the Christmas release that debuted earlier this month. Take a stroll over to their blogs and see their amazing creativity - links to their blogs are on my left sidebar.
Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

Stamps - Sugar Creek Hollow "Primitive Sheep"

Great card! Love the paper piecing and the texture you added. Beautifully done!
Clever, clever girl! The paper piecing is terrific on the sheep and the effects just add to the overall effect! This card has such a wonderful vintage feel to it which is absolutely perfect with this image! Your paper, lace, twine and buttons could not be more appropriate, you rocked this!! Love, love, love it!
