Hello Again… you might know that this is my second post for today? I am lucky to be substituting today for my good friend, Jana Millen, who is under the weather.
I love the challenges on the Wednesday Challenge blog because they always bring a new look to my cards. It has been a long time since I have participated but, I do miss it 🙂 Today’s theme is Animal Antics! 

A card with my two favorite subjects… flowers and critters makes me happy and I had such fun creating this. I combined two stamp sets from Lawn Fawn, “Our Friendship Grows” and “Critters in the Forest” (check this coordinating die cut) To create the background I combined some distress inks with some of Simons new stencils this and this. Next week I will be sharing how I combined distress markers with Copics for shading on the flower.
I hope you find this pdf useful (click to enlarge) I see that one of the photos is repeated but, it’s to late to delete it..sorry 🙁 Send an email if you have any questions.
