The "jest for the pun of it" theme for this week's CASual Fridays challenge just fit right in with a stamp set I got recently - Paper Smooches party posse. Such fun images!

I really enjoyed colouring this little guy. I'm trying to improve my colouring - working on the highlights and shadows. Often I feel I colour too lightly. Certainly by the time my cards are photographed and on here I feel that I've lost any subtle shading. So I'm trying to emphasise and add more depth. I think I'll try and look up some tutorials tonight :)

Oh and one more thing to love about Paper Smooches stamps; see that sweet bit of twine - Kim wraps each stamp set with a touch of tissue paper and holds it in place with that twine! I don't let anything go to waste!
