Snakes on a card?

Well, I said I was going to make a card with a snake on it…………………I am truly scared witless of snakes.

If a card with a snake on it can even be thought of as cute, well then, I guess this card is it.  Take a look:

 

 

You’re My Paradise

Today is the reveal of the new Hero Arts Monthly Kit.  This month’s kit is so appealing to me because it has a lake, a dock, a forest and mountains.  All of these images describe my life for many years, so I am anxious to have this arrive in my mailbox in the near future.

In the meantime though, I am also taken by the June kit which has already arrived in my mailbox.  It has a jungle theme, which clearly does not depict my life in Canada, but it is equally appealing.  I started out intending to make a card with the Leopard image, but in the end, opted for a few of the smaller images, and made the card more of a Hawaii card.  I am always happy when I am able to use something from my “new” drawer as well.  In this case, it was both my small and large Wreath Builder Templates from Gina K.

I think the card turned out well, even though there is no Leopard anywhere in sight.

 

I am also contemplating making a card with the snake that is in the June kit, but I hate and fear snakes almost as much as I hate and fear “dust bunnies”! (Really, “dust bunnies” totally creep me out and I can’t touch them without a paper towel in my hand).  I could give the snake card to my granddaughter as she actually has a snake as a pet.  Ok, it is settled………………………..my next card will have a snake, a leopard and maybe a “dust bunny” on it.  I will face all my fears in one go! LOL.
