The Pink Elephant Challenge #12

This week's challenge at The Pink Elephant Challenge blog is to use this sketch by Carol Houghton (awesome sketch Carol!!). Here is my card using it:
Cardstock: Georgia Pacific, Pattern paper: Basic Grey "Phoebe", Stamps: Autumn Leaves "Mindy's Zoo", Color Box Chalks, Cricut Plantin Schoolbook Cart.(for greeting letters), White Jelly Roll Pen, Stickles, Watercolor Pencils: Kimberly
I cut around the leaves on the branch, and pushed em up to give it more dimension. I also stamped and cut out around the monkey (what a task!), and I didn't even rip him lol. I then folded some of his limbs, etc. forward again, to add dimension. I had much fun creating this one :) Thanks for looking and have a fantastic day :D

The Pink Elephant Challenge #10

I created this card for The Pink Elephant Challenge #10. This week is a color challenge using Pink, Green and Yellow. I colored the stamped image with watercolor pencils. Then dipped a Q-Tip in water to soften the edges. I've never used them before but I like the look. For some reason the bird bath looks purple in the photo, but it is actually pink IRL ;)
