Sponged Clouds...

I am not sure how everyone else does their clouds, but please find below a very short Tutorial for the Technique "Sponged Clouds" - the way I did mine!

Supplies -
Cardstock - Whisper White
Post-It Notes or Scrap Paper
Ink Pad - Baja Breeze
Sponge or Dauber

Instructions -

1. Freehand draw clouds onto Post-It Notes or a scrap of paper - you will need about 5
2. Cut clouds out & apply non-permanent adhesive to back of mask
3. Apply to Whisper White Cardstock where you would like your clouds to appear
4. Using Sponge or Dauber, begin sponging ink over cardstock & masks
5. Continue sponging over entire cardstock
6. Peel masks off carefully
7. Complete card & Embellish

Enjoy!

So Hoppy for you...

Another challenge, another card.....  This time a Colour Challenge....

My first instinct was to go for "Inspired by Nature" Stamp Set & of course, seeing the frog there, I had to include that too, which is where "Hoppy for You" comes into it!  A great Stamp Set for kids!

I also included the Technique "Sponged Clouds"
