Teal & red..one of my favorite color combos! My teal is slightly on the turq side (IÂ’m down to scraps of true teal..need to get some!) & my red is slightly on the vermillion side because it went better w/ the shade of teal.
Since it’s getting close to the end of the school year & a lot of people like to make cards for those special teachers. My original intent was to use the Owl & the book & then I thought, what goes w/ books? Reading glasses! Around here, anyway, because I have terrible eyesight. I masked the owl & stamped the stack of books below him..lucky coincidence that the orig stump the owl is sitting on matched almost perfectly w/ the pencil cup. The book was stamped twice & I used a Micron pen to scribble the “writing” & popped up the extra image to give it some dimension.
The teal bg was embossed w/ an apple folder & the Thanks word was die cut once out of the vermillion & once out of white & double stacked a little offset. The glasses were die cut & I put some thin plastic behind them to simulate the lenses.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups, the inside & Copic colors are on my blog: The Write Stuff
