Vacation Afterglo

Thought I'd share this Zendala from my vacation. Tangles: Afterglo and Moving Day. I used my Peerless watercolor travel book which was definitely influenced by the fall colors.

 


This week I worked on a few cards. This one was a little different for me. I needed some inspiration for my grandson's birthday card. I found it in this cute card I found on pinterest. I admit I spend a bit of time "researching" pinterest! But it leads to finding fun blogs like Ruth's. I thought I could make a stamp work instead of punching and I had the perfect stamp, "party animals!" by Penny Black. The number four is also from a Penny Black stamp set, "Who's Counting?" Unfortunately I couldn't find either on their current web site so I'm guessing they are out of production. Penny Black has a great selection, you might find something else you like. Or give your existing stamps a look, you might have something that would work. It requires some strategic stamping and the use of a stamp positioner. The middle section I drew by hand along with the frame and text.
