CPS 112-Marty the Marshmellow!

I received this adorable Marshmellow poem and this cute Marty the Marshmellow stamp in my bag of goodies from DRS Designs last week. I've been on cardmaking over load for the last several days since I'm going out of town later this week. I felt a need to complete this weeks CPS challenge early.

I guess I never realized how big Marty the Marshmellow really was until I started playing with this sketch. He only measures about 1" x 1.5." I doesn't seem that big until you try to line 3 of them up diagonally! This card turned out HUGE! It measures 7.75" x 5 5/8." I think this is the largest card I've ever made! So, as you see there was no way I could have lined up 3 Marty the Marshmellows-I had to down scale the middle circle and use a decorative brad instead.

Not too much coloring on this card, but I did use a Cool Gray Copic Marker (C1) to outline the marshmellow images and used Versamark to stamp him repeatedly on the gray cardstock.

Here's close up of the poem. Isn't it cute!

Thanks for visiting here today. Sorry to cut things a little short--with the hectic-ness of leaving on Thursday morning and still having to pack, finish up some last minute projects and putting in a full day of work at my real job today & tomorrow, I gotta run!

Have a great day!
