Happy Monday! It's a short week for me because of the Thanksgiving holiday! This weekend I was pretty busy in my stamp room. This is my third post in a row! That doesn't happen very often. Anyway, my niece called on Saturday and asked me to make her a thank you card for her nursing teacher. She wanted something masculine (her teacher is a male) and nursing related. That was a tough one. I first searched for sketches and chose this one from Freshly Made Sketches.
I had a stamp set from Paper Smooches called First Aid that had this ambulance image in it so my card revolved around that. I stamped the ambulance in black ink and colored parts of it with red and blue markers. I cut it out, mounted it on foam tape, and added some Glossy Accents to the window. I placed it on the panel stamped with the red chevrons. I added the pattern paper and stamped the sentiment. I think it's pretty cute and my niece loved it. I followed the sketch pretty literally.
That's it for me today! Thanks for stopping by!
