Vera Lane Studio: Warm Wishes

 

Hello, hello!

It's my DT day at Vera Lane Studio and I'm excited to share a card I made with the Warm Wishes digi set:

I love this quirky little girl and I think she is perfect for saying hello to a friend. She also has a birthday sentiment and one that says 'missing you', so she is suitable for lots of occasions. The beautiful birds is from the La Dolce Vita set. I coloured the images with Copic markers and finished with Polychromo pencils. I fussy cut them and added them to the background.

The background was made by using one of Janet Klein's stencils (available through AALL & Create) as a stamp by inking it up with Distress Oxide inks, spritzing it with water then stamping it onto white card. This is one of my favourite ways of making backgrounds - it is quick and easy and often I get two or three backgrounds from just one inking. I added some background stamping using a text stamp from Janet's Background Noise and some black stamping around the edges using Visual Ingredients. Torn washi grounds my images.

That's all for now.
I hope you'll come along and play on Vera Lane. It's such a friendly, fun place to be!
