Evalinas Card

Good Morning All! How are you? We are fine and well and looking forward to the last few days before school starts on Friday - we're off to the new chocolate place at Hawkshead today. The kids are doing a workshop - they will be making chocolates and chocolate molded things! Should be good!

Today I want to share with you a birthday card for Evalina - we met her on our holiday and she and Penny had a really strong friendship almost immediately. They did a lot of tree climbing together - hence the card!


I made the card by starting with brushed corduroy distress ink - I added this with a distress tool lightly all over the back of a 7 x 7 inch square piece of card. Next I used an A4 Clarity stencil and coloured in the green and blue with more distress inks. Next I used a water brush and distress inks as paint and added detail to the trees. 


Next I added the topper - LOTV - and the stamped letters - clarity!

I hope she appreciates this card - I am sure she will!

Have a great Tuesday!

Big Hugs
