Today, we are celebrating the release of the "Take A Peek" stamp set:
When I saw these cute woodland creature stamps, I couldn't resist having them "peek out" of a tree. I embossed a piece of Desert Sand card stock from Mark's Finest Papers, punched out two circles and an oval, ran it through a Tim Holtz wood embossing folder, then rubbed several brown ink pads over it. I colored the creatures with Copic markers then mounted them and the stamped sentiment behind the "wood" panel. The other panels used are Cajun Craze by Stampin Up and Deepest Mahogany by Mark's Finest Papers. I completed the card by adding greenery made with a Martha Stewart punch and punched rings around the knotholes.
