Sugar Pea Shepherd’s Lantern
I owned a couple Sugar Pea stamps I found at an LSS in the midwest a few years ago…but hadn’t shopped at their store yet. (My bad, eh!?) When Taheera told me they were the sponsor for “my” day, I wanted to use their stamps – and I was delighted to see what’s offered in their shop! I bought the lantern die and little shepherd stamp, thinking the shepherd-in-a-lantern would be like my fox-in-a-jar obsession (ha). I didn’t really look to see if the shepherd would fit INSIDE…but I’m actually glad at the way it worked out in the long run anyway!
Don’t forget to add a treat to the inside of your card!
Another coloring of the shepherd image I finished last night…I made it a girl, too!

SUPER SWEET CARD! I adore Sugar Pea Designs and your creativity leaves me in awe!
Merry “Christ”mas Sandy!
Thanks for all your wonderful videos!
Wow, your cards are amazing! Such pretty scenes.
Cute cards! Very creative! And beautiful coloring, as always!
Oh my gosh, being a Christian I love this card! A Shepard in a lantern is supposed to be like the fox in a jar. I don’t get the reference. I do like how it looks. Reminds me of a snow globe. That little lamb is so adorable. I love, love, love, love the sentiment! Then the second one you made the Shepard a girl and in those days, girls weren’t Shepards. You nixed the lantern but that’s okay. I love them both and when I win, I want this stamp and the sentiment that comes with it. Thanks for showing us your adorable cards and for giving us the chance to win something. I love this stamp company!
You are so amazing, love your voice overs
I am always amazed by your glass effects!!

Sandy,
Always a pleasure. The SPD Shepherd Stamp is sweet as can be and I am always amazed and inspired by your coloring and those outstanding backgrounds. I get two of my favorites in one you + Sugar Pea Designs!
Merry Christmas.

Cute cards and great coloring!
Isn’t it fun to “discover” new stamp companies? I’ve been a fan of SPD for a while now. They have great designs, but I love more Wendy’s punny sense of humor. Great cards!

Wow, amazing cards. Serious coloring skills at work – stunning!
Love the brilliant way you dealt with the image being a bit too big for the lantern. It does help to have the talent to be able to make the change to a reflection.
WOW. Your work is always gorgeous.
Beautiful card, the carryover of the lamb to the inside is so cute.
