I got a REALLY sweet little package in the mail the other day:
This came all the way from Australia!!! Thank you so much Makeesha!!
She sent me THE cutest stamp set called "Build a Roo" that I assume is exclusive to the Australian Stampin' Up! catty - it's so adorable! ETA- oops I obviously missed seeing it in the Canadian catty and apparently it's in the US one - so yay for all the SU! fans out there LOL!
And her super cute card using the set just made me grin!!
((((HUGS)))) Makeesha - you rock!
So of course I had to put the set together ASAP and make a card with it - so here it is:
I pulled out my SU! Walk in the Park patterned papers (retired) and followed my latest Friday Sketch to make the card adjusting it a bit to fit the image and the sentiment.
I even pulled out my Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol to color in the kangaroo (*shock* I know!! I didn't use my Copics!!) for something different - now that I have more experience with shading/blending etc with the Copics I can apply that knowledge to coloring with the pencil crayons.
So with a bit of coloring and experimenting I'm pleased with the end result!
I die cut the image with my circle nestabilities dies, and did the same thing with the sentiment and one of the smaller circle dies.
The ribbon is from this DoodleBug pack, and I pulled the Primas from my stash along with the brads.
I didn't take a pic of the inside of the card as I kept it simple and lined it with the same green leafy patterned paper and that was it!
