Have a Wild Birthday

In an attempt to break away (yet again) from festive projects, I've used this smiling little Leo from MFT's Sweetest Safari set.  He's well and truly the focal point of today's card and I've used a Honey Bee stencil to create the scattered leaves backdrop for him.





Water-coloured on Langton Watercolour paper with Ranger Distress Ink Reinkers:

  • Fur: Antique Linen, Brushed Corduroy, Vintage Photo, Gathered Twigs 
  • Grass: Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, Rustic Wilderness, Peeled Paint, Forest Moss
  • Browns: Antique Linen, Frayed Burlap, Walnut Stain
Shading enhanced with Derwent Inktense Pencils
