We have a special challenge for you this fortnight at TIME OUT, as we are celebrating our sponsor, Uniko Stamps, Birthday month and also recognizing Random Act of Kindness Day on February 17th - we thought these words would be perfect to inspire you:
Uniko is generously offering the winner of the challenge a clear stamp set of their choice :)
I was inspired by the "kindness" and the "confetti" and I created a design of butterflies flying out of an envelope like confetti. The butterflies are from the Uniko stamp set: English Country Garden Butterflies and the envelope was hand drawn. Everything was coloured with Copics and the Hero Arts greeting was also stamped and Copic coloured. I added some Nuvo shimmer pen to the butterflies and the coloured part of the sentiment letters for a subtle finishing touch before adhering the panel to a blue card base.
We are lucky to have Sue from Sentimentally Sue joining us this challenge - make sure you check out her work before you take some TIME OUT to play along with us!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
