Hand Picked - PPA208







My new stuff from Stampin' Up! arrived this week.  I must admit I was a bit overwhelmed by it all and didn't know where to start once I had spread it all out on my craft table. So I put all the of the stamp sets back into the box and had my secretary reach in and pull one out. That secretary may have peeked because this cute little koala is hard to resist!  I added some extra flowers, a new clip, some new cotton ribbon and twine and Kind Koala is all set to head out and spread some cheer.  

In the meantime my secretary is back at work - checking on the next shipment perhaps - not sure how she made out though since she is chatting into my calculator.......




  Margaret has a banner sketch for us this week at Pals Paper Arts!

omg the card is cute but your secretary, I am sorry to say, has stolen the show...how cute. My little grandson all you have to do is say hello and whatever he has in his hands at the time goes right to his ear...they are the cutest are they?? Thanks for sharing! BTW I love the card!

Very nice card but the little one is soooo adorable.

Put a big smile on my face and made me remember my grandson (now 8) and he would talk into the tv remote and think it was a cell phone.

Thanks for the share, the smiles and the memories!

That koala card is too cute, Linda. The candy dots on the polka dot background and the flowers are a perfect touch. I can't wait to see what else you make with your goodies! Your secretary is too cute and looks very efficient!

I hope you pay that "secretary" well. She's a keeper. Darling card. I'm fully enabled to get the koala stamp!

Patti MacLeith said...

Rae said...

Oh my gosh! Your secretary is so cute. Your card too but I think she takes the cake. Do you hire her out?

Adorable card Linda and your "secretary" is so darn cute! She looks like she has a great head of curly hair.
I love her polka-dot P.J.'s even match your!

SO sweet!! (And the card is cute too!). I love the photo of your secretary - she's a cutie! I have to admit that I hadn't noticed the koala in the catalog. It always takes me awhile to truly see and internalize all the new, fun stuff. The koala is so charming on the banner.

Such a nice touch to put the Blushing Bride in the Koala's ears! The flowers really pop, too. You made a simple stamp become a masterpiece to work with!
