This is my third and final entry for the MFT 2016 Card Design Superstar Challenge. I was going for a storybook look, bold lines with fun, bright colors. I started by stamping and black heat embossing some fun images from Forest Friends and Magical Unicorns onto watercolor paper. I then loosely, er, messily, colored the images with watercolor and die cut them. I added these to a watercolored panel and then added a stamped sentiment from Happy Hedgehogs. The panel was mounted to a kraft card base and bordered by some thin washi tape.
I hope you have a chance to check out all the amazing entries for this contest. There is some seriously amazing inspiration!
All three of your cards are amazing Karen. The sweet scenes you created are amazing. I love the rainbow on the first one. You are so incredibly talented!
