I'm so happy to be joining with the Stamping For Autism Awareness Blog Hop! How cool is it that we can support awareness with our crafts?! And what a wonderful community we have!
Our lovely & amazing host Veronica suggested a theme for our cards today of feel good encouragement and I knew exactly the sets I wanted to use, Essentials by Ellen Totally Awesome and Positive Words. These are sets I keep coming back to over and over because everyone needs to hear how awesome they are! And in addition to the encouragement theme, we are painting the internet blue! Here's what I created...
To create my card, I used my MISTI to stamp "awesome" down the front in Distress Oxide Blueprint Sketch.
I colored many little Lawn Fawn Yetis before I settled on this one, foam mounting him on the card front.
For the sentiment, I used my Copic B000 to color a scratch strip of cardstock. Then I stamped the "you are". And to complete the sentiment, I layered one black "awesome" word die cut over 4 white ones.
Does anyone else do this? When I choose a image, I stamp it bunches of times so I can have "practice shots" for the coloring. And I still need lots of practice with my coloring, LOL!
Here is the full hop list:
And don't forget to check out our awesome sponsors!
Thanks so much for stopping by and have fun hopping!

Awesome card! Thanks for sharing!
This is DARLING! And just right for this hop!!
This is so amazing! What a great hop! Thank you for supporting Autism Awareness in this way!
you're card is so fun :) (and by the way, good idea to stamp images multiple times to practice, I'll try this instead of stamping once and think I'm too bad for being successful at first try ;) )
Delightful and fun! Perfect for such a worthy cause!
Sooooo LOVE this card, dearie!!! Thanks for being a apart of this AWESOME event!!!

I love Yeti stamps. Cute card and wonderful way to tell someone that they are awesome. You are pretty awesome for stamping for Autism awareness.
Great card for a worthy cause.
Cute card that made me smile! Thank for for sharing your talents to help this great cause!
That was a very cute card.... This card would put a smile on someons face or in there heart...
Your Yeti is so cute and yes I always stamp multiples, can always use the practice, thanks!
Cute card. We all need to be told that we are awesome. Thanks for participating in this event.
Such a great card! Fun! I love this initiative! After homeschooling my 5 children for 27 yrs, I took a job as an EA/TA to a 7yr old boy who was on the autism spectrum. He also had FASD. I was with him for 3 years and LOVED it all! Thank you for bringing forward more awareness of the awesomeness of these children.
I would like to say how much I appreciate that you are participating in this. My son is 12 and he has Aspergers syndrome. He also has aggressive ADHD and it was hard to get the autism diagnosis and therefore to get it treated. This is a wonderful way to raise awareness
Such an awesome creation to raise awareness and spread the love for such a worthy cause. Thank you for the smile your card put on my face! :)
Your card is adorable ! I'm like you, I need to practice my techniques. So I usually stamp many times my pictures and if I finally find more than needed which are good enough to be used on a card, I keep them for a future project. But my future project box is very small and still quite empty..... I've got to practice, practice and practice some more, and I love it - LOL !
Thank you for this fantastic blog hop !
Super fun card. Love all of your Awesome stamping. TFS
Such an "Awesome" card! Thank you so very much for participating in this blog hop for Autism. And yes, I too stamp (many) multiple images, regardless of my "coloring" method. Phew, I thought I was the only one doing that (and possibly wasting paper).
Amazing card for a kid, the yeti is adorable.
