Joy of Painting card – Stamping Dreams Blog Hop

It was really popular in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s and seems to be having a bit of a resurgence.  The programme was called Joy of Painting and was hosted by painter Bob Ross who mostly taught techniques for painting landscapes. This programme has inspired my Joy of Painting card for the Stamping Dreams Blog Hop.

Colours in this card are:

 

To recreate the Joy of Painting card, you will need:

Highland Heather card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic White card – 4¼” by 3¼”
Blueberry Bushel card – 4” by 3”
Basic White card – 3⅞” by 2⅞”
