Cute Card Thursday 'The Great Outdoors' Challenge
The challenge at Cute Card Thursday this week is to make a card with the theme of 'The Great Outdoors' and we have 4 gorgeous stamps form Alota Stamps to give to one randomly chosen lucky winner, so why not pop over here and join in the challenge.
The background of the scene is coloured with chalks and I stamped and masked the well before I added the fence. The bees have Sakura clear Stardust pen on the wings and I have added Glossy Accents to the ladybird.


















Supplies Stamps: Alota Wishing Well, Magnolia Tilda With Watering Can, Shabby Chic Fence, Flower Box, Ladybird, Bees
Cardstock: Creative Smooth, Bazzill, White Hammer
Tools: Prismacolors, Sansador, Gems, Sakura Stardust, Glossy Accents, Chalks, Glamour Dust

So gorgeous Andrea! love the scene and colours :)

Paper question you asked is.. no.. I don't use watercolour paper as I find it too rough, the concorde cards or normal sketch paper works fine for me :)
