olive you.

When one of your bffs asks you to create a card with an olive-theme for her 6 year old to give to her lunch monitor at school's end, you say yes.  You don't even think about how you don't have an olive stamp.  There must be a digital stamp online that would work, right?

When I didn't find anything online that I liked, I decided to get a bit creative.

Kind of swanky for a 6 year old, right? ha.  Just focus on the olive :)

Here's how I made it:  I found a balloon stamp (from an old Clear and Simple Stamps set - I couldn't find it online to even tell you its name)...see the one I mean - with the arrow pointing to it?

I stretched it a bit on my clear block to create more of an "olive-y" shape, and left out the balloon "nub" when stamping it.

Do you see the olive?  Lastly, I found a tiny heart (from lawn fawn's "love and breakfast") for a cute red pimento.

With a little coloring, I give you my olive:

I don't usually post tutorials to the blog, but tell me what you thought of this mini one!  I'd like to start doing these a little more often :)

Olive you!

Thanks for peeking and have a great weekend!
