Heres Wellington !

Hi everyone i hope you are all enjoying the gorgeous weather we are having right now , whilst my hubby has been hard work in the garden i myself have been hard at work playing with craft stuff , oh its a hard life being a crafter right ??? lol .
Anyway as well as sorting out and tidying up my stuff i did find time to create this little character and i hope you like him .

so heres Wellington !

The Card


Wellington



The embelishment


And heres how i made it !

I used a card blank shaped at one side and stamped the Wellington image onto it using black archival ink pad , i then inked around the image with Tom Holtz distress inks in wild honey and tea dye .
Next i coloured in Wellington in his armchair using a selection of promarkers and used Staedler fineliner pens to add a little finer detail .
I then tied a piece of creamy coloured lace around the card and added the flowers wich i put together with a brad in the middle of each ( all from Papermania ) and attatched them to the the lace using red double sided tape .
To finish i popped on a happy birthday sentiment from the Wellington range and and stuck on a piece of card candi to the right point .

I love this little character and have enjoyed creating this card and im going to be producing more from this gorgeous range soon !

Thanks for stopping by

HAPPY CRAFTING !

I've not seen Wellington before. Aw he's so cute. Reminds me of my son's big teddy. Love the bright inks and the soft ribbon with funky flowers to embellish x
