Hey lovelies!This week I'm here to share a cute love/friendship themed card using Lawn Fawn's "Let's Toast" stamp set! I love sending these cards to my closest friends and not only my significant other, just to let them know how much I care!

I added a little extra shading to my toaster using coloured pencil to give it some extra texture as well. I stamped the images' rosy cheeks with Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide ink, added some highlights and...

Once I was happy with my background panel I splattered both panels with Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Ink and...

I'm guilty of always wanting to add "more" to my cards but sometimes a simple small scene is all you really need! I cut a panel from watercolour paper using the second largest of Mama Elephant's "Basic Rectangles" Creative Cuts. I stamped the elephant on the left first using Ranger Archival Jet Black ink and created a mask for him before stamping my second elephant sitting next to him. I coloured my images and created a soft background for them using my Altenew...
