I just love the picture for Friday Mashup this week, isn't he just a cutie? Sadly I didn't have any penguins to add to my layout so I just did the spotlighting technique on my card. The sketch came from Freshly Made Sketches challenge - I have to say these are two of my favourite challenge sites and it was nice to be able to do a card that fit with both two weeks in a row!
I haven't inked up my Every Moment stamp set in a while, but knew I wanted to do so for this card. I was initially going to use the little bird stamp from the set, but changed my mind and used him on another card I will put up later in the week. I love masking and layering the flowers in this set, I keep the masks stuck to the top of the stamp set container because they are fiddly to cut out, but well worth it don't you think? I used Daffodil Delight and Wild Wasabi, not a combo I use often, in fact I don't use these colours often at all but the did fit with this card. I added a little Vellum butterfly with some pearls - I have only just recently purchased the card stock weight Vellum and am really happy with it for projects like this as it is more robust.
Happy Stamping
Great job with the spotlighting Monique, it looks great!
