explore

AAA has an anything goes CAS challenge with a twist of travel. Seize the Birthday has a cute critter challenge. I decided to combine the two and came up with this card.

Using a negative circle as my mask I sponged some colour into the circle using Tumbled Glass and Bundled Sage inks. Because I wanted to use this cute little Panda image from AI, I used a very old wooden block stamp that has an oriental image. This gave me the look and idea of China for my Panda. I stamped through the mask to get a light impression over the sponging. Once I had my Panda stamped I added some bamboo along one side of the circle and the word explore comes from an old hot air balloon set from GKD. I coloured my Panda with pencils and some Sakura Glaze for nose eyes and ears. The inside carries the birthday message.

I’m happy with the end result and had fun making it. Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate it.
