As usual, anything goes here as long as you feature a Critter or Creature.
I used one of my newer Penny Black stamp sets today, Buddy and Duck. I also have this set available brand new in my Etsy shop for US shipping if you are interested.
I thought this cute duck was perfect for a baby shower card or new baby card, and that's what I decided to make.
Image was heat embossed using versafine onyx ink and embossing powder on bristol vellum card stock, then water colored using my Zig Clean Color bush pens. An old SU stamp was used for the random dots on the white background paper. Designer paper I believe is by Authenique, picked up at Hobby Lobby. Sentiment is from the Penny Black clear set Snippets, another set I have available brand new on Etsy.
I added a little button and twine for embellishments and did some zig-zag machine sewing to finish it off.
Dimensionals were used to adhere the the image to make it pop up a little. I also used clear wink of stella on the umbrella, but you can't see it in the photo, because I've done that after I took the photos :-) :-)
The card is listed here in my Etsy shop if you're interested.
