Woodland Critters Card

I was recently gifted with a sweet stamp set from Lisa Elton, called Woodland Critters 

(Pretty Pink Posh). Lisa even included the dies to complete the set!

Lisa was a designer for PPP, and I lovingly stalked her blog @mypapertales to see

how she'd transform sets she showcased. 

The card I made went along with a get well gift for a 10 year old neighbor, injured in

a boating accident. Such a sad event needed a pretty, perky, pet filled card. She loved

it! Made my day. 

Thank you Lisa! (Don't you just love this community of crafters?)

Hugs my friends!

Sympathy Cards

The Flower Challenge is being sponsored by My Favorite Things this month.

Hello! I love playing along with any challenge that has 'flower' in their theme!

And the monthly Flower Challenge has become a favorite.

This month it's Anything Goes. 

My card features MFT's Floral Focus stamp set, an all over stamp that was selectively 

stamped on the corners, and colored with Faber Castell Polychromos pencils.

The lines from the tone on tone stamping almost disappear with the coloring.

And the pencils on Kraft give the the image are almost an 'old world' feel.

First stamped with Altenew's Sand Dunes ink, then colored with pencils, and

finally masked before adding the droplets.

One last step. I added perfect pearls to some white acrylic paint and gave the leaves and 

petals some sheen. Much shinier irl.
