Sheepy Sheepy Sheep Sheep - Fun Spring card with Polkadoodles

Hello and happy Friday everyone.  Wishing you all a lovely day today.... Spring is here, the perfume from the orange blossom and the wisteria in the garden is gorgeous and the birds are definitely feeling very twitterpated.

That being said we've had several days now of rain! 

Wonderful I know for the ground and the reservoir is showing signs of filling finally, but sad for the Easter fair and processions here in town that started on Thursday.  Hopefully it wont put people off too much. 



I thought today I would share a cute card using the Sheepy Sheepy Sheep Sheep collection by Polkadoodles.  

It's perfect for Easter and Spring cards alike and there's such a good choice of images too in the set.  I decided to make a DL card so chose two of the images in the set, enlarging one sheep that would sit at the bottom of the card and then resizing the other 3 times and reversing the direction of one image too.  The large sheep at the bottom is Georgie and the smaller sheep is Darren. 


I wanted to create a hillside scene and have my sheep springing around.  I coloured the sheep 
in with Promarkers and then fussy cut them out. Next I created my scene, blending distress inks to create a hillside and adding a touch of blue at the top for the sky.  

The sheep were then adhered tot eh card using foam tape and then I hand drew little springs below the bouncing sheep on the card. They are having so much fun leaping around but I'm not sure that Georgie approves !  

Don't forget there are pre-coloured images too if you prefer not to colour 

The sentiment is from the xxx collection, printed onto vellum so it didn't detract from the scene.

The finishing touches were a few highlights of white gel pen around the design

I hope that you like my card today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Polkadoodles

Hasta luego ๐Ÿ‘‹ 


Enjoy the rest of your day !
