Happy Monday, everyone! Hope you had a good weekend! I have an uber-easy, CAS note card today for the Less Is More one-layer photo challenge:
Isn't that a sweet inspiration photo? It made me instantly think of one of my favorite SU stamps called Garden Pleasures....it has a sweet little straw hat and some wee little birdies! So here we go:
I warned you it was uber-easy and CAS! I stamped each image in Saddle Brown Stazon, then watercolored them with ink and an aquapainter. I added a wee little bit of shading using an oval stencil and a blending brush. I added some speckles too, very lightly stamped in Lemon Lolly ink:
Finally, I stamped a sentiment from Special Moments next to a little bird at the bottom of the card:
Cutie patootie! Thanks for popping in today!
Saturday night ice cream night---even for the pups!
Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Super sweet CAS card, LeAnne! I love how you put the shading around the hat once you had it colored. It just makes the hat stand out more. And that little bird is just the cutest! We had ice cream night last night! The weather was nice and the place was packed! Looks like the doggies enjoyed it, too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful job of watercoloring. That must be an old stamp. Pups do love ice cream. Dana is so good at taking selfies. Have a blessed day.
ReplyDeleteDarling card, LeAnne! I think I remember this one and think it is timeless!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of - any old night at all can turn into ice cream night!

Sweet card. Love that tiny bird 😊
ReplyDeleteAhhh! I remember this set. That little bird in the bottom corner is soooo cute!! I really like the colors you used. Great pics of Dana, Wayne, and Cassidy ..and the puppers! Ours love ice cream, too!
ReplyDeleteLove that simple card. Only stamping! Sometimes I just want to do that…forget all the die cutting, embossing, etc., etc. And your cards shows how beautiful that can be. Thanks!
ReplyDeletePS. I also can’t stand Wild Wheat and Pebbled Path!!
