Handmade Spring Inspired "Thank You" Card

I received this stamp free from Quick Cards Magazine some time ago, so I decided to make some cards with them while on vacation. I just stamped it in StazOn black ink and used some watercolor pencils and some Studio G glitter glue.

Stamp: Wild Rose Studio - Annabelle's Meadow

Sticker Challenge - Panda Paper Craft Cards

I decided to challenge myself and actually try to make something from some cute stickers I bought, rather than just adding them to my ever growing stash! I didn't have stamps or dies for the balloons or bamboo, so I made a template myself for both. I colored the bamboo with Ranger's glossy accents; the balloons I cut out and covered with paper.

The background on the "Congratulations" card is hand made with left over papers from the project. I always like to make papers on tags at the end of every project with the scraps, so nothing goes to waste (and I don't feel guilty)! I almost always like the results. I really had fun doing this and I love every card. I think I'll be doing more sticker challenges in the future.
