The Card Concept Challenge #131-Woodland Nursery

Welcome to a new challenge here at The Card Concept!
Look at these cute animals in the
inspiration photo!

I have this adorable Simon Says Stamp -Woodland Whimsey,
which was perfect to create my Clean & Simple style card!

I stamped the images with Black Archival ink onto some watercolor paper and painted them with water colors.

The style of my card is considered Clean & Simple:

One main image
Lots of open space
Limited layers and embellishments
Quick & Easy to create

I hope I have inspired you to join us here at

Happy March everybody!

I hope the March winds are blowing in some warm Spring weather!

We haven't been that cold here this winter, but lots of rain! YUK!

I don't know about you...but I LOVE Irish Coffee!
And that is what I thought of when I saw this photo!

I had to think a little out of the box to create my Irish coffee to go! LOL!

I made the top green and added a black belt and gold buckle! An added some foam!

My card is a mix of lots of different dies! 
And the sentiment was typed onto some white card stock.
