Thank you Kindly

Hey friends!

How's it going? Great, I hope! I haven't been able to craft for myself, lately..so, I was super happy when I was able to make this card! I always love playing along with the MFT Card Challenges, and this sketch stretched my creativity.


I ended up combining three different stamp sets, and quite frankly, I looove it! I feel like I have trouble making subdued, more muted cards, so, although this isn't totally pastel and soft, it is as close as I can get, lol!


I started by stamping, and coloring the hill image from the new Ewe Are the Best stamp set, onto a white panel, using Distress Inks, and a bit of masking. I also stamped a sentiment from Delicate Pretty Poppies right below. I trimmed it down, and adhered two strips of Khaki patterned papers from the Neutral Dots & Stripes collection before popping the panel up on a white card base, using foam.


I then die cut the bird, tree, and clouds using the London Mouse stamp set, and matching dies. I colored them, and adhered them to my card front with foam. Although it is hard to see in the picture, but I added a bit of Wink of Stella to the clouds, bird, and tree, for a bit of shimmer!

Thank you for stopping in to see! I hope you have a great day.


Supplies:
Paper: Neenah Solar White, Dots & Stripes Neutral Paper Pad MFT
Stamps: London Mouse, Ewe Are the Best, Delicate Pretty Poppies MFT
Ink: Black Licorice Hybrid MFT, Mowed Lawn, Peeled Paint Distress Ink Ranger, Copic Markers
