Luffin The Puffin – Card

Hi everyone

Today I would like to share a card I made to enter into the That’s Crafty Challenge – Alphabet Soup.
I have been meaning to join in these challenges for ages.  For some reason I seem to miss the deadline or something else gets in the way so this week I am on a mission to join in.

I thought I would be stumped at the first hurdle though.  I thought the challenge was numbers!  Don’t ask why.  I have no idea where that one came from.   So I made a card and was just about to link it up and I realised it was “letters of the alphabet”.  My heart sank because I thought I have no letters or anything such like and then I remembered the visitors box.  This is a box that all of our visitors leave reading books, puzzle books and the odd sock!!!

So that is what I used for the background.
A page out of a puzzle book which I painted with gesso.
A really easy card.
I stamped the puffin and colored him in and then coloured the background with Distress Inks.
I add a couple coats of spray fixative to keep all of the ink in place.

Stamps Used:
Crafty Individuals – Alice Palace Range Party Puffin CI 376

Thank you for looking
Take care,
