Wow, what a busy week so far! We had a fun day yesterday with track and field for Mark and Emma and a music concert last night that was spectacular! I'm amazed at just how talented Emma's school orchestra is for being their first "real" year of playing! I'm a happy momma today!
Since "momma" is happy, "daddy" should be too, right? This is a card that Nathan and I made for Adam (for Father's Day...but he'll get it early). We used the brayer to create the background on this card. We punched out cupcakes from just "normal" paper and adhered them to the watercolour paper. Then Nathan brayered the sky in Marina Mist (didn't he do a good job!) Then he brayered the ground with Always Artichoke (it's a seperate piece of paper). The dinosaurs are embossed with black embossing powder and coloured in with markers, cut out and popped up.
Hope you like today's card! Busy day ahead....here's hoping for a successful and productive one!
Take care,
Heather
So cute and fun! Love the texture and what a great idea to use the cupcake!

Wonderful card! I love the idea of using the cupcakes for the clouds, how clever is that?!? Also love the popped out 'scene' in the center of the card!
