Paper Romance - YNS Challenge #12 - Yippee Fhiona

Happy Tuesday to you! Today I wanted to play along with the Your Next Stamp Challenges #12. My friend Cabio is hosting this week and she chose distressing as her theme. So here is my attempt at distressing my card:



The distressing is very subtle but I tried. Here is a closeup of Yippee Fhiona (isn't she cute?)



When I saw this image, I pictured my 7 year old jumping for glee on the last day of school (sort of looks like my Christina too) and so created this card. You can find Fhiona and many other YNS stamps at Paper Romance. Right now they are having a sale. Just use the code word SPRINGTIME to get 10% off any order over $25. For my card today, I used an assortment of papers from DCWV and Provo craft. My buttons, star charm, and twine are from my stash. The school is from Alota Rubberstamps.

Hope you liked my card. Thanks for visiting me today. Don't forget to head on over to Paper Romance for their 10% off sale. Have a great week!
