First off, congrats Joan on being the FS today! Whoo Hoo! Your gallery is full of amazing cards. I chose this one mainly because I have that bg stamp.........details.......
Just got this new Penny Black Stamp set and decided it would work perfectly for casing Joan's beehive card. It's not a beehive, but it is a bear and bears like honey. See the connection. Anyway, I stamped my cute bear and colored him with copic markers. First change I made.
Masked him, then stamped the frame around. Second change I made. Masked again and stamped the bg stamp.
All coloring of images was with copic markers. On the bg, I versa marked and cleared ep'd the flowers, then sponged sunshine yellow over top. Around the bear, I stippled baja breeze.
Stamped the birdie and butterflies, colored, cut out and put on my panel. Put this all on a kraft cs card. Added the ribbon knot only, because that is all that is left of that ribbon in my drawer, making this a third change to the CASE of her card.
The sentiment could be for all of you here on SCS. You are my special friends and I thank you all for that. Well, here's my card........hope you like it. Thanks Joan for having a wonderful gallery to CASE..............TFL :0)
