You have great taste. Whether you’re talking fashion or monsters trying out different looks, it’s a great line, right? I got some new Paper Smooches in the mail today and I just had to ink them up. This is probably the fastest I’ve ever inked up new stamps! To be honest, I bought Vegtastic for the sole purpose of using the leaves on the vegetables as hats/toupees/wigs for the monster from Falling for You. I know, I’m a little weird that way. 😉 I didn’t buy Sugar Rush for that reason but the top of the cupcake looks like a shower cap, doesn’t it? I can’t stop giggling over that one. What I loved most about trying out these different looks on the monsters is that the little indentations of the ‘tops’ fit so well between the horns that it was almost meant to be! I used the white, pink, sunshine and chocolate colour combination from the Paper Smooches July Sparks Challenge. This challenge is so much fun and the prizes are amazing. You should play along!
I hope you’re having a much better week than I am! Between the protests and overnight construction, I’m struggling to stay sane. All I can do is look forward to the peace and quiet I’ll have in 38 days!! See you Thursday for an exciting announcement. 🙂

Emily you are a genius I love this card! The monster hair pieces are adorable especially in the fun plaid!
What will that brain of yours come up with next? You never cease to amaze me: monsters with veggie wigs. Hilarious.
I don't know how you can look at vegetables and see toupees, but I'm glad you can! I love the look, especially the one on the right.
Hope you get at least some sleep in the next 38 days!
So stinkin' clever! Your ideas totally keep me on my toes. But what I really want to try is that twine/sentiment treatment. It's fantabulous! (See, I have to come up with entirely new adjectives to describe your work.)
Love this!!!!!!
Uhm, So so so cute!! 🙂
Girl this is the cutest idea ever! PERFECT!
Could this card be any cuter? Seriously it made me laugh! I love it! Love the sentiment with all those hats! Tee hee! So sorry your hardly getting sleep. That really sucks! I feel for you! And way to make me so curious for tomorrow!
You're making me think about these stamps too much! I love what you do with these funny images! Brilliant!
This is so darn fun and cute, love what you create when you stamp, you are awesome! Hugs!
Emily! How darling are those little dressed up monsters!? Now how did you cut them out so close to the line? I must know:)
This is so fun! Love it =) TFS!
can this be any more adorable!
Can it BE cuter? I don't think so, it's so so so darling!
It's good you explained the sentiment related to their fashion choices… I thought maybe they were people-eating (although extremely cute) monsters commenting on someone's good taste! 😀 Awesome card — love all the paper-piecing. (What protests? About the Fords?)
Such a clever and really cute card, love all the little creatures
this is sooo …. rofl!
How did I miss this?? Absolutely adorable!! You have such a creative eye–love those HATS! I'll be looking at my stamps in a whole new light….thanks for the inspiration!!
Who can be afraid of monsters as sweet as these? Love their hats…great idea! *smile*
way too cute, you clever thing:) the toupee just cracks me up!
Oh my golly…this is so clever and adorable Emily!
I'm wondering about the protests too – although I'm guessing that there are way more in TO than make it to the national news. As for construction, I hear ya. It's never fun to be close to THAT noise.
Love the sentiment/twine treatment (it is totally fantabulous!) and those awesome rugs. Buddy on the left should talk to The Donald about it.
So so so cute!!! Adorable and I can totally see why you had to buy this set!
I can't stop laughing! This card is absolutely hilarious!!! SO CLEVER! Seriously fabulous!
So hillarious! Love it!
