Below is my card.  I used the opossum and sentiment stamps from Newton's Nook stamp set "Hangin' Around".

SPIES:
STAMPS: Images and sentiment - Hangin Around (Newton's Nook).
PAPER: Espresso, white cardstock.  Patterned paper - from stash.
INK: Tuxedo Black (Memento); Copics on images.
EXTRAS: Polaroid die (Taylored Expressions); candy dots (Stampin Up!).

I made this card while on vacation at the beach.  You actually might be able to detect the ocean in the background of the photo.  I took it on Friday, our last day there.  It's suppose to have 3 candy dots on either corner, but I didn't realize until I started writing my post that the two dark brown dots fell off sometime right before I took the shot.  Obviously I was too preoccupied to notice the faux pas while photographing!  Not too happy about that but seeing as how my craft bag is still packed, not much I can do to remedy it.

Aside from that, I had a lot of fun coloring those cute little opossums and tree limb!  The entire stamp set has some other super cute images too.  This is the first time I've used a Newton's Nook stamp and have to say they are adorable!

Nance, what a fun card! Love your cute little opossums and how you colored them! Hope you had a great vacation...and glad to know I'm not the only one who hauls some of my stuff on vacation so I can stamp. :) Thanks for playing with us at Try Stampin' on Tuesday.

Hi Nancy, this is such an adorable image, though I'm so glad you clarified they were opposums!! I might not have figured that one out on my own. All rodents are the same to me - YUCK! So cute though. Thanks for joining us at Try Stampin' on Tuesday! Crystal
