Happy Retirement

Hi Everyone,

I'm using the new Brush Happy Retirement Greeting on my cards today, and I created a couple of  scenes to go along with it.  

Here I stamped and die cut the sentiment and set it aside while I made the rest of the card.  Whenever I get overwhelmed at the thought of making a whole scene, I go small like I did here.  I stamped the Chair first, sponged on the sky, and then just drew in the grass.  I then used the Single Fall Tree and added a border.  My background on the other part of the card was stamped using the Splatter Background stamp in inks to match the scene.  A bit of sponging on the sentiment, along with a ribbon and a few punched leaves completed it.

For this card, I colored and die cut the Sleeping Gnome, and attached it to a background that had a sponged sky and a stamped grass using the Easy Grass Background.

 

I stamped the greeting at an angle and added the Silhouette Leaf Branch in the background, to finish it off.  

Napping.  Now there's an activity I can get behind!

Thanks for visiting today!
