Farewell

Two of my kids teachers were leaving this week. And of course I decided that I wanted to make a card for them. I had planned to make the same card for them, but due to a couple of mistakes I ended up with 2 similar cards.

No, it is not a mistake both teachers have the same name.

So what I did: I wanted to stamp the message on the card, but mistake number one, I touched the message on one of the cards and I ended up with part of the messaage in my hand, so instead of combining both, I put the flower embelishment on top of the error. The embelishment starts with stamping and embossing it, then used my new watercolour pencils and water brush for the water colour effect. Then I matted the card with some a beautiful paper that matches the colours of the flowers. Then I cut another piece that I used my punch and attached at the bottom of the card. Then I used ribbon across this where I used the mini oval tag with their names to cover where I joined the ribbon ends.
