Only the Nose Knows...

Okay! I know (**groan**)... it sticks out like a sore thumb... well, not "thumb" exactly... I mean NOSE! I forgot to colour his nose. I had such plans for that nose...........LOL!! And I completely forgot. Oh well as they say, only the nose knows... but like the card says, it's "a season of smiles". (Thanks Anna - great sentiment!!)

This is another Anna Wight image from the new Whipper Snapper Release (this past Monday). The snowman and "a season of smiles" sentiment is from the GARDENING SNOWMAN set; and the "Peace Love Joy" is from the THINK SNOW set. First of all I must say I never used one copic marker in the making of this card... I know... I can't quite get over it myself (Hello!!!! the nose could of used a little colour!!!)...but I did a little paper piecing and some machine stitching.

Stamps: Whipper Snapper Paper: Gina K Pure Luxury White cardstock, Bashful Blue, Ruby Red & Basic Grey Eskimo kisses Assessories: May Arts white ribbon, blue silk ribbon, diamond dots Tools: Spellbinders Nestibilities square, MS snowflake punch Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black

Lol about the nose! It's still a cute card with lots of layers and details - and I love that about your work :)

Did you whip out the Copics and colour that nose as soon as you finished writing? Or did you mail it off before you realised??

Carla - I am so relieved to know I am not alone in neglecting to color in that carrot nose. I do it every time. Guilty as charged and always too lazy to go back and re-photograph it AFTER I've colored it in the next day. I have a sneaking suspicion that after you saw the photo on your computer screen, you went back and colored in that nose. What do you wanna wager? I hope you're feeling better.
