Taco Fiesta with FMS#637

I was inspired by the little squares on this week's Freshly Made Sketches challenge to design a card using my Taco Fiesta stamp set.  What fun!  This stamp set has a such a cute assortment of toppings and fun sentiments it was easy to fill the squares and come up with a card that made me smile.  

Here's the Sketch:

Here's My Card:

I have to confess I really goofed up when I was making this card front.  Somehow I managed to flip the layers when I was adhering the stack to the card base, and wound up with the squares on the left rather than the right side of the card. OOPs!  Since the design on the Day at the Farm DSP was multi-directional, it didn't really make a difference, so I left things as is.  

I had so much fun stamping and colouring these images.  You can't really see because of the camera angle but I wanted all the red bits to be shiny so I topped them with a layer of Nuvo drops to bring on the shine.
