Hi everyone, I'm not usually a fan of snails but for some reason I really like this Impression Obsession one, Happy Trails Snail Mail.
The background was made by sprinkling brushos onto some card stock and spritzing with water.
I dried it with a heat gun, stamped the snail with versafine clair ink then bleached out some of the background colour with a water brush.
The snail and trail are coloured with white and light brown Prismacolour pencils.
I'm linking up to these challenges:
The Alphabet Challenge, T is for traffic.
Admittedly the snail would be very slow traffic lol!
Dies R Us, anything goes using a brand of die DRU sells.
Thanks Trina!
Supplies:
Impression Obsession Happy trails snail mail stamp; versafine clair nocturne ink; clear ep; brushos;
Crafts 4 U stitched rectangle die: Spellbinders circle die.
Thanks for visiting,

Super card, Cathy. I love the background you’ve created for your snail. I’m not a fan of snails either but I agree, this one is rather lovely. xx
Snails normally a no no for me too Cathy - but this one is really very cute! A great card! x
What a wonderful little snail! Your brusho background is beautiful Cathy! Happy Better New Year! xx
I'm not a fan of snails either, but this one is a cutie. (Best way to have snails!) Love the brusho background, and the stitching on the card front. TFS Happy New Year. Hugs Mary H.

I am not a fan of them either but this one does have charm, and being a painting doesn't leave that nasty slimy trail..lol. I love the Brusho background the the way you have water bleached and added fresh colour with Prismacolours. A great sentiment too Cathy. x
Adorable card, Carhy! So clever and fun that you included it in the Alphabet challenge!
You should enter this over at Mix It Up challenge (different from CAS Mix where it’s AG + optional bleaching.
