So for my card I decided to use my spellbinder for the shape. I LOVE this shape ~ it is so fun to play around with! I stamped my sky using PKS " Cloudy Day" (another MUST have stamp). For my grass I die cut that using the same spellbinder but only did a portion of the paper. The paper hoarder in me couldn't waste a whole piece of paper! LOL! Once I adhered the grass part, I stamped the image of the watering can & flowers. I then stamped the image on white card stock so I could color it with my Copics. But something wasn't sitting right with it. So I decided to stamp just the flowers and the tip of the spout out (colored them with my Copics) so I could pop dot those images. The picture doesn't show the dimension it actually gives the card but it does make a impact in person! I then paper pieced the can and the leaves. For my water coming out of the watering I can I used my PKS "Happy Go Lucky Elephant" die. It has these neat little water cuts on it. So I added some glossy accents to give it some shine! Added a few more little details and hopefully my friend will think it is CUTE! I know I do!

ReplyDeleteOkay so I have some catching up to do. I was looking at your previous post, close up, and I thought, WOW what a nice cloud background. What did she use? Then I read that you were inspired by my tutorial. (You flatter me!) Of course I love the gingham frame and kite! I posted my comment here because you had over 100 comments on the actual post. Beautiful job Kim! And thanks for being so sweet! Now this card is also a real cutie colored to perfection! How clever to use the water droplets from the elephant set. Another great card!
