Hello Koala

Hi there,

I used the adorable Avery Elle Sending Hugs stamp set to create this card for Mennys Bastelshop:

• cut out the Mama Elephant Oval Deco Frame, some leaves and flowers from watercolor paper
• stamp the little koala from the Avery Elle Sending Hugs set with Versafine Smokey Gray onto the oval and color the image, the background, the leaves, the flowers and the frame with Frau von Bommel watercolors
• add highlights with a white gel pen and little drops of Nuvo Crystal Drops Buttermilk to the center of the flowers
• for more texture tap the frame with a sponge and Distress Stain Antiqued Bronze
• for the background use the Spellbinders Leafy embossing folder on grass cardstock and ink up the edges with Distress Ink Gathered Twigs
• cut out the My Favorite Things Essential Hello from grass cardstock, ink up the edges with Distress Ink Gathered Twigs and cover the bottom part with Ranger Copper embossing powder

I hope you got inspired.
