This weekend at SCS was a Virtual Stamping Weekend with lots of Book Club Themed Challenges for cards to complete in 45 minutes or less.
This card was for two challenges ~ Color Purple (to make a card with purple) and The Story of Chicken Little (to make a card inspired by one of your favorite children's books).
I loved the books of Richard Scarry when I was young. I had a few of his illustrated pages in my stash from a discarded children's book, so I featured one using the sketch from Our Creative Corner.
This card is inspired by today's SCS Featured Stamper Kokirose's card Water Colored Birds.
I replaced her stamped image with this wonderful Wherever They Grow sticker from Penny Black. I used a Hero Arts Happy Birthday and a "made with love" heart charm to complete the design. This card is on its way to my Grandma.
It's a gorgeous day in Iowa. We took a lazy morning drive through the countryside and Palisades-Kepler State Park with the windows down and the wind blowing through my hair ... one of my favorite things to do.
Oh how sweeeeet! I love the Richard Scary card. His books are THE best! Your flower card looks stunning. Gorgeous colour! :o)
