Wonderfully Dandy

It's Wonderful Wednesday time!! We hope you can play along!! As always....it's ANYTHING GOES!! Break out your Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps and get crafty!!

I decided to do something TOTALLY different today for you all... and for me.  I'm trying to push myself as an artist and grow, broaden my horizons.... so..... I present to you a totally out of my wheelhouse and comfort zone card!!! 

This paper.... I just HAVE to tell you, I purchased to make my wedding invitations, and in four days it will be 12 years old! Wowza!!!!! Anyways, I wanted this card to have a vintage sort of feel with just a tiny teeny hint at maybe some color.  If you look really close, the image is colored with my Prismacolor pencils, but just barely. The image is Dandy Lion, which is the Krafty Komeback this month, and the sentiments are from the Dandy Lion set and the Sincere Thanks set.  I used distress ink in "Tea Stain" on a sponge to distress the edges of the kraft paper. then I used an ivory colored ribbon and flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts to embellish the card.  I really hope you guys like it! 

ok, back to business...

I saw this set and just fell in love with that little fox!!!!! So here's my card........

Notice anything different here?  ..... look closely....... GASP!!!!!! I used PENCILS!!!!!! OMG!  Don't fall off your chair..... I know, it's crazy.  He he he! So, Melanie Holtz told me that I should just go for it, and I did.  I stamped this sweet little fox on Kraft card stock and just went for it with my Prismacolor Pencils.  I love how he came out, and I'm super proud of my very first attempt at pencil coloring. The clouds are actually all heart dies in different sizes, I trimmed off the pointy ends and layers them up.  I added rhinestones as "raindrops" and a tiny bit of twine for fun.  I hope you like it!
