Mojo Monday {Go-pher it}

New stamps make me happy.  I was one of the lucky winners of a gift certificate to the brand new stamp company, Sugar Pea Designs during their countdown month. Thanks so much Wendy!!! The release was last week and I ordered right away. Cute stamps!
My first love was the new Go-pher it set. ohmygosh!!! he's adorable. I used the pointillism coloring technique (using lots of small dots, in lots of colors)  to create his fur. 



I followed the Mojo Monday sketch for this week,  but in place of the square focal point, I stamped my gopher onto a circle. I nestled the sentiment right along the curve of the circle. 



I added a drop of Crystal Effects (by SU) to his light and then added some Stickles to those diamonds. Who doesn't love a sparkly diamond?!! A cluster of enamel dots and a quick wrap of some hemp twine and my card was done. 
I can't wait to see what others do with these stamps. And I am really looking forward to see what Sugar Pea Designs comes out with next. For now I'll keep myself busy with this set and the Bussel and a Peck stamp set. I'm coloring that up next. 

Have a great Friday!
