A little toucan

Still working on finishing that DP pad, I'm soooo very nearly there!!

I based this card on the layout over at Less is More, but maybe I've stretched it a bit much?  I haven't used this Stampin Up toucan in forever, but felt he couldn't quite hold the page on its own so added the strip down the side and coloured the toucan to match.  Red stickles added to the hearts, and Wink of Stella to the green feathers on his chest.

I have to say that it is a little tricky to spot the sketch in your interpretation Lynne, but it is a cute card!
Thanks so much for joining us!

Great card! I actually saw a real live toucan years ago when I was doing some volunteer work in Costa Rica. They're awesome! So is your card. :)

Very colourful card and I love the matching sentiment.

Now . . . if your in Ireland . . . can you smuggle us some Guinness into the Playground in your satchel please? We're have a party in celebration of it being the 200th week! There's fireworks, and a big bonfire too - and a jacket spud. Plus chocklit. C'mon . . . it'll be fun.

I think this is a little too far from the sketch but I do love it. The bright dots are great and that toucan is fabulous, not seen him before.
Sorry for the late visit!
Thanks for sharing with us.
