Hey Sexy!…
Jun 16th, 2008 by Jen
When you think monsters, you probably don’t think “sexy.” Truth is, neither do I. I went in search of a birthday sentiment and came across it and just couldn’t pass it up! The monsters are from Green Grass Stamps. I have had them FOREVER and yet they never saw the light of day…until now. My original intention was to make a boy birthday card. I really don’t need one, but I really wanted to use these stamps, and it just seemed fitting. Then I went diving into my MFT sentiments, and I have a lot to pick from in that category LOL, and this just popped out at me and I couldn’t just leave it sitting there begging to pair up with some monsters! So here ya have it…a “Hey Sexy” monster card…
Isn’t that paper just the cutest? I love me some polka dots! This is some paper that I picked up at the Great American Scrapbook Convention with Susan a couple weekends ago. It is from Treehouse Memories. It is from their Mainstreet line and the Department Store collection {have I ever said that all these paper sub-category names drive me CRAZY?!?!}. Definitely check them out, they might just give American Crafts a run for their money in my book!…and that says quite a lot!!!
Here are a couple detail shots…
I actually put some Sakura Stardust pen on this guy’s teeth. If you have seen the movie Monsters, Inc. you may recall at the beginning when Mike was prodding Sully while brushing his teeth by saying, “Fight that plaque! Fight that plaque! Scary monsters don’t have plaque!” I kept saying that over and over as I was finishing up the card. LOL! That’s actually what we say when we brush Ellie’s teeth. She LOVES that movie and thinks it’s funny when we say that to her.
Love this card!! The monsters are awesome. Hmmm, wonder where I can find that set around here…
haha! So stinkin’ cute Jen! Your layout is FABULOUS and fun! Love the saying…hehe!
Your card actually made me giggle out loud! This is such a cute card and I LOVE the sentiment you put with these guys, hilarious! Great way to start a MONDAY! Thanks!
Now WHY’D ya have to go make a totally awesome, SEXY monster card? I was fine before i visited your blog today and saw those monsters, and the link to the stamp store I had never known about until your blog and of course, my shopping cart is now full and my bank account is on empty…
I’m NEVER coming to your blog again, ever!
Today anyway….
TFS!!!
that is soooo cute! i love it …and it would fit my hubby perfectly! lol
This is super. I love that sentiment with these stamps. So cute, great job on the coloring too.
How cute is this! It would make a great little boys card if the phrase were different :), but it’s a fun big boys card now! LOL!

Holy Cow, Jen…I am in love with those monsters! I thought I had found it all when I discovered the DoodleFactory stamps at Starving Artiststamps but I just might have to get me some more monsters. You can never have too many!
What a FUN card! And I need to check out that paper line, I adore American Crafts papers! I’m in agreement about all the sub-category names, too!
This card is adorable! I love the combo of sentiment and the monsters. I just might have to invest in both.
How stinkin cute!!! Sexy monsters, that’s a good one!!LOL
