Sheep Among Flowers card

I am loving the Woolly Friends stamp set and co-ordinating Woolly Friends Builder Punch and have used it to make a sweet sheep amongst flowers card.

Colours used to make this card are:

 

I created the sheep amongst flowers card using the following supplies:

Petunia Pop card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Secret Sea – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White – 5⅛” by 3⅜
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap Basic White

 

I stamped the trio of tulips, twice on the on the smaller panel of Basic White card with Granny Apple Green ink. I added a row of grass using the same colour and coloured the leaves using the same colour again.

I added colour to the flowers by masking them off one at a time and stamped using Petunia Pop, Calypso Coral and Daffodil Delight ink. The panel was then glued to the Secret Sea layer and then to the Petunia Pop card front.
