Happiest Birthday Wishes Simon Says Stamp Challenge Card
Today I had a play with my Polychromos colored pencils, and some Tim Holtz distress inks. I used stamps from Simon Says Stamp! Birthday Celebration set.
This little elephant is just so adorable, and I needed a birthday card for a little one whose birthday is coming up soon.
I stamped the images with a very light gray distress ink, then colored it in the no-line coloring fashion with colored pencils. I used distress inks for the phrase, and also for the brushed color along the edges. Top-fold A2 size card, with some ink spatters, and a few Nuvo Jewel Drops.
I am adding my card to the The Daily Marker 30 Day Challenge .
