For my card, I am using Hippie Owl. I just can't get over this adorable image! I love the VW bus and it reminds me of my childhood when our neighbor drove one and we always knew who it was when it was driving around town.
This image was stamped on X-Press It paper and colored in with Copics. I followed the current sketch over at the YNS challenge blog and used some fun tie dye patterned paper for the background. Included is the new YNS banner die which I used for the sentiment. The card was finished with some Prima flowers and some YNS Gumdrops.
Don’t want to wait to go shopping? Here’s our big birthday specials:
