Meet the Loveosaurus (diorama & MFTeasers!)

Never ever ever ever ever ever EVER had so much
silly fun making something (ever)!
For Real. Ever. (!giggle!giggle!giggle!)



At first glance, this might look like a card...
...but looking closer...

The boat & waves and stuff are all made with a freebie digital
(hybrid) kit to celebrate his extreme stinkin' cuteness...

Hope you have a great one!

Ladies & Gentlemen! Boys & Girls!
It is my distinct pleasure to introduce to You,

The Loveosaurus!!!

(You might have already seen him loved up by some MFT friends of mine?)
If not, you can catch the show (links to all the My Favorite Things previews of
this cutie--and a bear too!--here on Kim's Blog
)--at 11:00 AM E.S.T. today.

The sets will all be available here on May 5th.

(Enabler Alert: These stamps tend to sell out quickly, so if you just have to
have this guy asap, you might wanna mark your calendar for May 5th. :o)

There will also be a release party & a blog hop 'n' shop on May 5th;

Loveosaurus slide show:



I'll be posting the written tutorial version with links & the digital freebies (for the waves, stage, clouds etc...) this afternoon & there will be more sneak peeks later tonight.. :o)

Thanks for checking this out!
Hope your day is full of fun,




P.S. Many Thanks to Maurice Sendak for the inspiration. He is a long time artistic hero of mine (him & Picasso tie for numero uno) :-) I collect as many of his books as I can afford & have drooled over one day owning volume 2 of his life's work. What an incredible man!
