Feeling Flat!

 


Hi everyone, a friend said she had been feeling a bit flat lately so I thought this would be the perfect card for her lol!

I've stamped the elephant and sentiment in versafine Clair nocturne ink and clear embossed
them. I used prismacolour pencils for colouring and shading and blended them with zest it and a paper stump.

They are both from Katzelktaft Les jungles and Relax. There are no dates on the stamps but I've had both sets for a couple of years.

I'm linking up to these challenges:
Retro Rubber, where it's anything goes as long as you use a stamp that's at least one year old.


Simon Says Stamp Wednesday where it's animal antics.


Word Art Wednesday, anything goes with an encouraging or uplifting sentiment.

Supplies:
Katzelkraft Les Jungles and Relax stamps, versafine clair nocturne ink & clear ep; prismacolour pencils; Crafts 4 U stitched rectangle die.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x

I can think of many times I wish I'd had a card like this! Love the way you'v used the bright green mat for a lift and to suggest there's light at the end of the tunnel! The soft grey ground is perfect. Thanks for joining with us at Retro Rubber Challenge.
