GDT for Day of the Month Card Club

 Hi Everyone,


I again have the honor to be guest designer this month for the Day of the Month Card Club Challenge!

 The theme for August is: 
Book Lovers Day



Now who doesn't appreciate books?!
I totally love to read and I devour just about anything I can get my hands on - fiction, non-fiction, autobiographies, etc. I do  have some standards. I don't really read trashy novels. For that I consider my time to valuable. But I always have huge stacks of books on my nightstand that I am planning to read. 
But  regardless of my reading habits, I used the Katzelkraft Meerkats for this card and combined it with this lovely stack of books from Stamperia. Colored with water colors and Inktense. Added the thought bubble. Just wish I had better hand writing....


I hope I enticed you to 
play along and link up here!

Happy book lovers day!

Linking up with:
Simon Says Monday challenge - Fun and Quirky

Oh nein, diese Frage gibt es bei mir nicht und wenn, dann gibt es nur eine Antwort: LESEN! Aber den Beiden soll es erlaubt sein, mal darüber nachzudenken und ich hoffe, sie treffen die richtige Entscheidung!! Freue mich sehr, das Du uns wieder als Gastdesignerin unterstützt!!!

This world needs more well-read meerkats...and these fellows appear to have a lot of vibrant material to entertain them. Just another terrific critter card.

My answer will definitely be : to read ! What a fabulous card you've made with these two meerkats and these rainbow piles of books. It could be a really nice way to store our books in the bookcase ! Thanks so much for being such a talented Guest Designer over at DOTMCC. x

Time to ink them up! Used Kraft card stock and stenciled the coffee cup. Took the paper cup stamp and stamped it repeatedly over the stenciled cup and masked it. Colored them in rainbow colors - that's where summer comes in - most rainbows you are going to see during summer. Added the sentiment.
