When I saw this image I just fell in love with it and of course it just had to be part of my never ending collection of stamps. This is My Little Lamb from Stampavie.
I wanted to wish all my fellow Canadian's HAPPY CANADA DAY!!!!! I wish everyone a wonderful day with family and friends!!
I don't typically use orange tones when I make cards so I went outside the box for me on this one. I really like the new Max & Whiskers patterned paper so I tried to pull some orange tones out of it along with a bit of rosey red.
Here is a little closer view of the image:
This is the list of items I used:
Cardstock: Bazzill Marigold & Butterfly
Patterned Paper: Max & Whiskers "Gretchen"
Misc.: Stickles in Stardust & Orange, Nestie Blossom, SU flower punch, misc. brads and ribbon, Martha Stewart punch
Copic's: G21, G24, G28, N1, N0, YR00, YR01, YR02, E31, E34, E35, YR31, YR23, Y28, R35, R37, R39, E000, E00, E01, R20
I'm totally into doing the inside of my cards now because I think they just feel more complete. I still do not typically stamp a verse just so that I can use them for anything then.
Here is an inside view:

Oh, so cute! I'm loving orange more and more when I see what pretty things are being done. This is definitely a smiley card.

Hi Lora, what a cute image. I love the paper lace trim you used, and coloring is great, love the little extra bling you added to the lamb and her hat. I'm not a big fan of orange, and mostly use it for fall. But you did a great job making this card attractive to the eye. Blessings to you, Rea

This is lovely! I really like the orange tones - I do not use orange very often either, but I love how cheery it is! Great work...
