I made this card for RaiLynn, Teapot Challenge, who has to spend a lot of time in the hospital for cancer treatments. We were to make "Bright & Cheery" cards so I colored my emu with rainbow of colors.
I saw that Susie Australia had made a card with this set of cute digi images by Crissy Armstrong at Whimsy Stamps. Whimsy is generously donating all the proceeds to the Bush Fire appeal for animals. So, of course, I had to get this wonderful set of stamps. Thanks for the inspiration Susie!
I colored and fussy cut out my images, then used Copic Blending solution with a washrag to create some texture on the koala and emu. I popped them up on my embossed background with 3D pop dots, then added Crystal Lacquer to their eyes.
Hopefully, this will bring some smiles to RaiLynn! Thank you to everyone sending her cards. I think this is her 4th 30 day stay at Mayo. Not fun!

Oh my gosh Gracie, this adorable card made me laugh right out loud. I adore the rainbow colors you used on your "stylin and profilin" emu, and I am quite taken with her long eye lashes too. I love how you colored this fabulous koala bear too. You have created an amazing scene for your wonderful Aussie animals too! This card really delighted me a lot and I know it will delight RaiLynn too. ~Karen.
