A Cute Lion

I made this card for my GF Jean, who made a quilt that I ordered as a birthday gift for my sister. Jean is a CTMH Consultant who is now into making beautiful quilts! To see this beautiful quilt creation, please check out Jean's blog post HERE.
So, I wanted to make her this thank you card, yes, another card I had to whip up, but did this in the evening, so no running for a bus, thank goodness! When Jean gave me the latest CTMH catty, I fell in love with this set of zoo animals. This lion tugged at my heart and I just had to buy this set...I used my copic pens to color him. I thought the coloring turned out pretty good. Used my square nesties to frame the image and added some bling on the corners. The Thank You sentiment is from SU from a set called Much Appreciated.
Your comments are much appreciated so I thank you! Stop by again tomorrow. I'll be announcing my sign ups for the August class!

Hi Teri! This lion sure is a cute! You colore him so nicely and I love the nesstie you have him layered on with the blings. Honestly, I don't know how you fit in all that stamping/creating time! You've gotta be a genius! Hugs, Cami
