IT'S A BREEZE !!

Hi blogland peeps.

 

 

I wanted to do something a little different for a change .

 

I decided to make a rocker card, as I haven't done this before.

 

 

The Saturated Canary stamp is a rubber one that you can get from Little Darlings.

 

 

She is called " Breeze "

 

I have coloured her with Polychromo's on watercolour paper. This worked very well and allowed me to give layers and depth of colour.

 

 

 

I made the little envelope with a template from Michelle R design.

As for the card it self I used a Grand Spellbinders die Scalloped Ovals , that I drew around and just cut out by hand..

The sentiment from Whimsy.
