WHIMSICAL CARD TRIO!


Have you ever found yourself wishing you had a greeting card that's just a little bit whimsical on hand to send someone? Why not make some yourself?  

I absolutely love these adorable little critters and wanted to share them with you!  


This sweet little chickadee is such a fun character wishing the card recipient congratulations!  I love the raspberry accent color with the neutrals of black, white and whisper.  Look closely, and you'll notice I used just a touch of lemon as well.  


What playful colors surround our congratulatory turtle!  Absolutely delightful!  Whether someone was working on a task, lessons,or project, it often seems as though the finish line is so far off in the distance!  What a great card to extend your applause in a job well done!


The third card in our trio today is a simply sweet thinking of you card.  I stamped this little fellow with raspberry ink!  Yep! A raspberry fox!  How joyful!  I then colored him first with a bluish/gray pencil, and then with an orange/red combo overlay.  So fun!


Materials used creating this trio include:

Some Kinda Wonderful Cardmaking Bundle (Stamp & Thin Cuts) 
Whisper, Black, Raspberry & Lemon Inks
Some Kinda Wonderful Paper Pack
White Daisy Cardstock
Line It Up Stamp Set (this set is part of a Cricut bundle)
Black & White Dots
White Twine
White Cards & Envelope Value Pack
Watercolor Pencils


Tools include:
Paper Trimmer
Non-Stick Micro Tip Scissors
My Acrylix Blocks
Tape Runner & Foam Tape Adhesives
Big Kick by Sizzix

We'll be making these cards at an upcoming Card Workshop.  Whether local or not, just let me know if you'd like to join in the fun.  Until next time --

Thank you so much for visiting!

I enjoy hearing from you!  Have a wonderful day!

Happy Papercrafting,

Gayle Piron
