Guest Designer Challenge

All of Whiff of Joy's stamps are beautiful, but as the mom of two girls (and one little girl in particular who is very fond of hot cocoa) I fell in love with "Willow with Cocoa".

Whiff of Joy is hosting a Guest Designer Challenge on their blog, so I inked up Willow and made this card.



Some close up shots:

I like how the COPIC colorless blender gives the jeans a sort of "stonewashed" look. I wanted to give this card a soft, antique-y look, so I did a lot of inking on the edges of many of the elements. This isn't usually my style, but I like how it turned out. I credit my friend and fellow stamping-supply-shopaholic Diana, with this idea - Diana never met an edge she didn't like - to ink! ;-)


Isn't she sweet?
