And Everything Nice

I have gone punched flower crazy lately.  Have you noticed?  I am having so much fun with flower and foliage punches and seem to want to put them on everything I make.  Today’s project is no exception.  I made this card for the Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge and uses lots more layers than I usually use. I pulled out one of my all time favorite Stampin’ Up sets to play with.  I love creating little freehand scenes around images and the little girl I chose is so precious.  She reminds me of a storybook character.

I stamped the image, painted and cut out. I sketched in the tree trunk and branches with an artist pen and then sponged in the little scene.  I finished off the ground area and treetop using the mini fern stamp from my Outdoor Master.  The finishing touch to the scene was to sponge in a light yellow for the sky area. I added lots of punched foliage and flowers to the corner of the frame for embellishment. I love all the heart punched layers even though it is way over the top for my normal style.

We are on the downhill side of the week and I am looking forward to a relaxing weekend.  Have a great day.
