Tutorials
March 23-- DIY Kids Coloring Book by Sandy
March 25-- Long Easel Card by Gail

Let's get started !!
Here's the Design Team
MFP Stamp Shop 

Today's card I originally made with my dad in mind until it hit me that my dad's not around anymore to give to him.  This was his kind of humor.  So dad, here's one made in your memory then using a wild buffalo.  

I started out by stamping a background using the wheat from Buffalo Spring in Tim Holtz walnut stain distress ink onto some cocoa card stock.  I then stamped the main image in memento black, colored using prismacolor markers and stippled Tim Holtz corduroy distress ink around the edges to "age" the image a bit before stamping the saying and also "aging" with corduroy ink.  After adding vintage brads, my card was done.  I kept it pretty clean with no frills for a masculine looking card.  



Enjoy the Hop. Come back each day. We hope to inspire you to start your own Wild Animal projects.  Get to work on the tutorials, show us what you made by April 8th and 
check back on April 9, 2016 to see if you are a winner.
