A Rose By Any Other Name ...

Image
Here's to another long weekend in May for us in Malaysia! A perfect excuse for crafting. I chose this digital stamp -  Rose from The Paper Shelter because her hair is so much fun to colour. All the flowers and butterflies around her is reminiscent of a blooming springtime. I tried a subtle no-line colouring technique for this card with my Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils.   I am entering this card for  1.  The Paper Shelter's Challenge #426: Happy Birthday! 2.  Clever Dexter Challenge #5: Spring Blooms Thanks for dropping by

The Paper Shelter Challenge #425 - A Shaped Card

When I first saw this digital stamp  - A State of the Art Dogwalk  in The Paper Shelter  store, it struck a chord with me.  Malaysia is currently under the Movement Control Order (MCO) rule, much like the rest of the world. One unpleasant thing about this MCO is that we are not allowed to leave the house unnecessarily, so that made it difficult for our family to walk our 10-year-old MinPin; Mocha. We joked about buying a drone to take her out for walks instead. Imagine my delight when I saw a similar stamp in The Paper Shelter. I knew I had to get it! I added a background from Make It Crafty, coloured the image with my Copics Sketch Markers and turned this into a circular card. Planning to send this to a fellow dog owner who is also facing the same dilemma. I am entering this into  The Paper Shelter's Challenge #425 Hope everyone stays safe in this uncertain times.
