Otto the Octopus

I have discovered a new digital stamp designer by the name of Gerda Steiner.  Her stamps are very cute and whimsical.  Gerda has just started a challenge blog and she offers a freebie for you to create and enter with. You should pop on over and take a look. The August image is this adorable little Octopus called Otto. He was really fun and easy to colour.  I cut him and his little bubbles out and mounted him on this fishy paper I had a scrap of, I think it is from Jillibean Soup.





Here's a little closeup of Otto
This is another image from Gerda that I turned into a quick card using the Happy Mail sentiment from Tiddly Inks, Quick and easy yet oh so cute.Who wouldn't like to get mail from this little sweetie?
Make sure you visit Gerdas etsy store as well as her blog, You won't be dissappointed if you like cute little images with a touch of whimsy.

I am also entering Otto into the Southern Girls Challenge something starting with F (F for Fish)
Make It Monday Always Anything Goes.

Hello Karen .Just joined your blog .
firstly ..just love the blog name .
secondly ..Suggesting you get a watermark signature for your card photos, so that it is harder for any one to claim them as their own ..
These are both delightful fun creations .Must visit creator of images .Thanks for sharing link ..
Lastly thanks for sharing on Make it Monday .
cheers Shirley-Anne
