I had a blast creating this card, I stamped all the elements on scraps of stamping card with light green ink and chose to do a no line colouring with Prisma pencils. Having studied the peas on their arrival I'd already made my mind up which faces were going in the pod... the one in the glasses - so funny, I mean a pea wearing glasses is hilarious - right?
Everything was cut using the matching dies including the sentiment. I played around with the placement before permanently sticking onto the grid background using hickory smoke distress oxide and a stencil from Altenew.
Just for an extra bit of fun, I added the speech bubble with 'YIP-PEA' inside. This card was destined for a family member but I adore these little peas and I'm not sure I can part with it just yet lol.

Hi Claire, a funny birthday card for any family member. Love the colouring and the speech bubble sentiment... have a wonderful week.. Megan
ReplyDeleteThis is beyond cute with those adorable peas in their pod! Yep, the one wearing glasses is hilarious and SO fun! Loving that smokey stenciled background too which compliments these peas in a pod perfectly! So cute!!
ReplyDeleteYummy & delicious card, such fun. Great use of snippets. Emma
ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant Claire. Love the design, especially the teeny weeny speech bubble!! xx
ReplyDeleteTotally adorable card Claire! I roared with laughter at a pea wearing glasses - I guess it stops him from having to keep pee-ring at the newspaper when he settles down to read it! Such a cute set. And I adore the background - seeing this idea quite a bit in blogland and can't wait to get stenciling, it really adds something so special.

ReplyDeleteHow cute! I love the idea that you can choose which peas to in the pod.
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute! I love this image with the softly done stenciling in the background. Well done!
ReplyDeleteHow cute and punny is this card! Love it so much!!! The soft background was perfect and subtle enough not to take away from the sweet little pea pods! Thanks for being with us over at Seize the Birthday and we hope you join us again soon!
ReplyDeleteThis is cute and funny and I suspect, quite trendy. I've noticed a lot of pea designs lately - my valentine's card from my partner (which he bought from a shop!) had peas on it . Maybe peas are the new flamingoes!
