Happy Birthday

Hello-

I have a birthday card for my Dad. It of course has a cat on it, along with some fall leaves.  One of his cats used to love to play in the leaves when he'd rake them up.  So I thought this would be fun.


I started with a faint bit of scattered straw distress ink laid down with a brush through a pretty pink posh leaves stencil.  Then I stamped Newton in a pile of leaves.  I colored them  simply, as the images are so small, with copic markers and then restamped the image ontop with the help of a misty to sharpen the image.  I used a brownish black ink - Soot by Lawn Fawn.  The sentiment comes from MFT.

This card is going to play at All Sorts Challenge- Trees and Leaves  and CAS on Friday Animals.


Thanks for stopping by.
