{DT} - hello friend and a new challenge blog :-)

Hi my sweet blogging friends and happy Sunday :)

Today I want to share a card with you where I used felt to create my own design elements for the very first time :)  I handdraw the clouds and sun onto white and yellow felt, cut them out and created a 'sky' with them.
To create the grass, I used a strip of green dotted patterned paper and cut lots of little stripes
The cute image is a rubber stamp from Whimsy Stamps called 'Thunder Lizzy ' created by Crissy Armstrong.

Speaking of Whimsy Stamps, I have some exciting news to share:
Whimsy Stamps is launching their very own challenge blog soon *yay*
The challenges will start on August 10th!
