This card was created for the Teapotter Challenge for a young lady who needs encouragement and loves Yoga. It is also being posted the this month's MISTI Monday challenge to make a square card.
I used the Yoga Giraffe by Stampenduos. It was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink, then colored with Spectrum Noir markers. Then I decided I needed color for the background, so I made a mask. I ink blended green all over and then thought about the sky. Some cards are not planned much ahead of time and green in the sky was not great. I decided a sun would be good and decided to add stenciling. I think it worked. I stamped the greeting and decided to fussy cut around it. It was too white so I blended a bit of yellow over it. I popped it up on foam adhesive.
The MISTI was used to stamp everything. I had to keep restamping the giraffe because I kept missing a place, mostly on the little horns on top of the head.
I hope this young lady continues to thrive with all she has been going through. I think it is a blessing to be able to make and send her a card.

Ha, ha, I did yoga once and put my neck out. Not my thing, lol. Your card is great. I have trouble with masking and tend to shy away from it. The sun rays are a brilliant idea. So encouraging and uplifting!
