Our Destination Station this week is a very special one. We are helping Eula celebrate her 109th birthday! Wow! I canÂ’t even imagine. For the details, please see here: Teapot Tuesday Destination Station - OLD INFO by Mothermark at Splitcoaststampers post #245.
To go with our card, if we wanted to, we could write a little explanation of why we created the card that we did. We were to pick something that we loved so we could share it with Eula. The image I chose is a digi stamp from Meljens called ‘Cubbin Around’. I chose this because it’s super cute and the tigers are so playful and look like they’re having fun and it makes me smile every time I see it. Eula seems like she's a very positive woman and I thought this would make her smile too. Also, I am wanting to be in a relationship and this makes me think “I want that”. Ok, confession over . . .
Printed digi and coloured with prisma pencils. I coloured this a bit different than I normally do as I started layering on the colours with the intention of kind of blending them all together with OMS. I blended and added colour until I was happy with the result. No special effects for this one. Layered everything as shown. Typed the special sentiment and printed it and popped it up. tfl
