Thank Ewe!


Hi Everyone!  It's time for another High Hopes challenge.  This week's challenge is a Thank You theme.  I used the adorable Posey's for Ewe image and the Thank Ewe sentiment for my card.

I paired the image with some patterned papers from Echo Park's Springtime Collection.  I stamped the image on copic x-press it cardstock with tuxedo black memento ink and colored it with copic markers.  I used these markers: RV32, RV34, V99, W1, W3, W5, W7, W9, BG000, YG93.  I die cut the image with a circle nestability die.  While the image was still in the die, I used my air compressor and the BG000 marker to lightly spray the sky.  I didn't mask the image.  I just tried to stay around the edges when spraying.  I stitched my patterned papers together and added a couple green buttoms before adhering the piece to my card base.  I adhered my image using foam adhesive and added some flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts.  I used the Martha Stewart Leaf Frond punch to punch the patterned paper leaves.

Come join us in the challenge for a chance to win some free stamps!  Have a great day!
