It's Stamp it Saturday!!

Helloooooo . . . it's "Stamp it Saturday"!!! Well, actually, it's Friday evening in my part of the world. But, since Mother Nature has decided to share some beautiful snow and sleet with us, I thought I'd post this early . . . just in case we don't have internet or power in the morning!!

So . . . for this card, I've used a Mo Manning design as a RUBBER STAMP by Penny Black! This stamp is called "XOXO" and is available HERE in Penny Black's online store. The stamp includes this cute little character PLUS a fun "XOXO" sentiment (which I have used on the little tag)!!
For those of you who prefer working with digital images . . . this cutie is also available as a "digi" called "XOXO" and is available HERE in Mo's online store. Here's a side view . . .

I "borrowed" the idea of stapling those ribbons in the corner from my sweet friend and super-talented Teamie, Franz!! So clever, huh?! I colored this image with Copic Sketch Markers and a variety of Caran d'Ache, Faber-Castell, and Prismacolor pencils!! Here's a side view . . .
