Yeti ‘nother birthday?

I saw this rather cute card by Yainea on the Lawn Fawn blog:

Yeti birthday

And it inspired a punny sentiment, perfect for my cousins husband:

YetiBday

I don't own that Lawn Fawn yeti set but I found this cute yeti digi stamp by Lil Musings. The rather limp twine is meant to be a knot to replace the bow…

The Size Of Whales

I have this cute top pinned to my Pinterest board:

whales :)

It got me thinking about the watercolour craze that has hit card making and lead to this:

Whale Bday

The whale and wave shape are from a X-Cut Pirate themed set – one of the first dies I bought – and I created paper masks from them. Then liberal application of distress inks and pearlised water – Simples!

Hopefully you can make out the shimmer the perfect pearls leaves behind.

As for the title… why is everything “an area the size of Wales?”

Raindrops

Just wanted to share a quick card with you made from the new Lawn Fawn Spring Showers dies.
Its my version of the card Kelly Marie makes in her intro video except when it came to adding colour, I suddenly decided to colour the die cuts with promarkers... Then to carry on the same colour scheme, I made a stripy background paper with the same markers.The sentiment is from an old Waltzingmouse set.
Im pretty chuffed!
