I was starting to think Mo and Jo stayed in Anaheim and maybe went to Disneyland or somewhere fun after I returned home last week; I just couldn't get back into the groove of things.Today, I decided I'd better try and round them up by using a couple new OCL sets:
Nature's Notes and Dandy Days
Thinking of YouWonky sewing fills up some of the negative space that was a bit too prominent on the focal image layer. I pulled the butterfly colors from the patterned paper.
Ink: Black
Paper: SU! Pink Pirouette, Gina K Designs Pure Luxury Green Apple, Neenah Solar White
Patterned Paper: Basic Grey Green at Heart Collection
Copics: RV10, Y21, YR18
Other: Fiskar's Threading Waters Punch,Basic Grey button, Linen thread, Square punch (banner end) Sewing Machine, Dimensional foam
Dandy DaysThis card is off to a friend who is having surgery at the end of the week. I "colored" the dandelions with a dauber and cantaloupe ink, highlighted with a cantaloupe marker. The stems on the focal image and border strip were loosely outlined with a pear tart marker.
Stamps: Dandy Days
Ink: Memento Black, Cantaloupe, Desert Sand
Markers: Memento Cantaloupe, Pear Tart
Paper: Neenah Natural White, Gina K. Designs Pure Luxury Sweet Corn, SU! Bermuda Bay

I have another OCL card to share tomorrow - it just didn't "go" with this post. I think my FIL is going to like it!

Two beauties, Val! Love the dauber-colored look...stashing that in my brain. Your paper selections couldn't be more perfect, and I think the stitching is just perfectly whimsical.
