Critter Christmas Card



Hello, stopping by to share a card for the Papersmooches Sparks challenge.  It's the final Sparks challenge and I wanted to participate.  I stamped the animals from the Papersmooches set "Santa Paws" and colored them with pencil crayons.  The layout was inspired by the sketch for the Sparks challenge.  For the background I used painters tape to mask off a piece of water color card stock before using Distress Inks to paint in the rectangles.  Once the paint was dry I flicked on some clean water and sprayed some sparkle mist on the background to add some interest.  I fussy cut the animals and glued them on the background.    
My dog was in my craft room and he went all silly running around and he managed to knock down my box of pencil crayons!  I have to admit I piled them into the box to organize another time.

Thanks for stopping by.
