I fell in love with this stamp set from Inky Antics as soon as I saw the caption that went with it. I love the "wrinkled grey" comment because I feel that way most days! I can't wait to give this one to just the right person (you know who you are...wink wink).I stamped the images three times, colored them with my Copics and layered them for dimension. I added a little bit of tolling to round the edges before adding the final layer - the ears. The balloon is colored then I sprayed it with hairspray and covered it with glitter... I find that's an awesome way to get glitter or shimmering powders to stay without adding too much goop and tack. I used a fun flower card as my base, covering it with patterned paper from Heidi Grace. I used my Cricut to make the loopy boarder, added the Hampton Arts sentiment and popped that all off the background. A tied string goes from the trunk of the elephant up to a pretty little bow on the balloon. I think it finished nicely.
I will be entering this card into the following challenges:
Just Add Ink - #70 - Round Sketch
Cute Card Thursday - #167 - Embellish It
Make it Monday - Anything Goes
Hope you're enjoying a wonderful weekend!
