This card features the only type of snail I like ... the colouring in kind LOL This is Speedy snail delivers the mail from Eat Cake Graphics. I've added some clear gloss to his shell and some sparkle just beneath him for the slime {{yeuch}}
My general card theme and layout is based on this week's featured stamper over at Splitcoast - here's Pam's original.
- CAS on Sunday #99 - black, white and 1 colour
- Stamp Ink Paper #80 - cardmakers choice
- Inspiration Destination #119 - anything goes
- Pixie's Snippets playground #263/4
- AAA Cards #81 - hello
And this one uses a little pack of HunkyDoryCrafts printed papers I won from Pixies' Snippets Playground a while back - it got lost (a.k.a. tidied!) and reappeared as if my magic today! I just decoupaged the central soldier, added a gold peel off border along the top/bottom, clear gloss to their belts, and some gold sequins and that was it finished!

what a cute image, love the image and the great way you used it! The stitching detail and ties are wonderful
Two very cute cards, Lynne! I'm not a fan of slugs and snails, but I'm definitely a fan of cute guardsmen!!!!!
love Mags B x
Eugh...slugs!! Not keen on squidgy slimy things at all Lynne, but your sweet snail passes muster for sure!! The other day Bowie came inside carrying something in his mouth looking rather pleased with himself. When told to "drop" he produced a green caterpillar which he then rolled on!!! Nasty dog!! Love the little fellas on the second card too xx
Your card is adorable - I love snail cards. My gramma used to put saucers of beer in the garden for them and the slugs... it worked eeek! Its very cold here, all the snaily critters are fast asleep underground.
WOW what fun cards. I love that snail and your layout. Those soldiers just steal the show!
These cards are both so cute! Wish I could send you some of our cold weather! I am tired of it already. Had to go get some groceries today and nearly froze my face off running from the car to the store.
Two fabulous cards - love cute snail and the decoupage on the guardsman card.
