Marks Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co.


I love panda bears!!!  I'm just saying, so when Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Company created this month's new Pandas set, I was so excited.  I started out by stamping my panda in memento tuxedo black onto some scrap white card stock before coloring with prismacolor markers then stippling Tim Holtz tumbled glass distress ink around it and layering.  Once that was done, I stamped a background using the bamboo image from Wealthy Fish and the new Dragonflies mini before coloring where needed, stippling, layering and adding some matching brads to both sets of images.  The rest of the card I kept pretty simple as well with just adding a sheer pink ribbon to the side and then my punched saying to the bottom.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a great day and don't forget to stop by the rest of the design team blogs for a chance to win today's featured set.

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Tim Holtz Tumbled Glass Distress Ink
