70 Years Old

Friday 23 October 2015
No I am not 70 years old but my Dad is turning 70 on Monday and here is the card I have made for him.


 
I started this card by attaching the two cupcakes, heart and candle from the Lawn Fawn Baked with Love stamp set and the bow and present from the Lawn Fawn Baaah Humbug stamp set to an acrylic block. I stamped them all over the front of a Kraft notecard using Hero Arts brown ombre ink.
 
I had to colour this cute little sheep from from the Lawn Fawn Baaah Humbug stamp set like the black faced sheep that used to be in a paddock near us. The lambs were always so cute everything spring. I used my BK4 Deep Black chameleon marker on the face, ears, hands and feet. I infused it for 10 seconds for the face and 6 seconds for the ears, hands and feet. I then outlined the sheep in CG8 Cool Gray and blended it out with the colourless blender.
 
I coloured the piping bag from the Lawn Fawn Baked With Love with GR3 Grass Green pen, infusing it for 15 seconds.
 
The sentiment comes from the Tim Holtz Crazy Talk stamp set. I have placed the sheep on the card so it looks like he is piping the sentiment onto the card.
 
The green paper I have used on this card comes from the Let's Bokeh Lawn Fawn collection.
 
I was again inspired to try the brown, green and neutral colour palette of the CYCI#91 challenge.
