This stamp really struck my funny bone when I saw it at a stamp show this Spring. After I got it home though, I wasn't quite sure what to do with it since it's not my style. Besides, haven't we put party hats on enough things yet? But hey, at least it doesn't have wings!
Anyway, now that I've finally inked up this stamp, I'm thinking that it was a whole lot of fun to work with. The coloring was super easy with Prismacolor pencils. I just colored in the image, grabbing whatever color jumped out at me. When I was done, I burnished over everything with a colorless blender pencil. I added some ribbon, a Cuttlebug diecut ribbon slide, some Basic Grey paper and scraps of cardstock, and voila!
The only thing I can't tell you about this card is who makes the stamp. I bought it unmounted and there is absolutely no marking to tell me who the vendor was. If you recognize it, please leave a comment so that I can give proper credit.
