Farewell gift

A friend of mine will be moving to New York next week and I thought I'll send her off with a notebook so she can scribble her thoughts about this next chapter of her life. I made this for her.
Traveler's Notebook


The stamp belongs to my colleague and she lent it to me for a few weeks. I stamped the image twice on white cardstock. I colored one with Copic Markers. I only colored some elements in the second image - the flower on the hair, the stickers on the luggage. Then I cut out the parts I colored on the 2nd image and layered them on top of the first stamped image. I added Stickles on the red flower on the hair, and the slippers.

Then I embellished with paper flowers and bling. I added some gold Mica Flakes on the petals of the paper flowers.

I also made a card just to thank her for her friendship. I stamped the butterfly image three times on white cardstok, colored them with Copic Markers and then cut them out. I adhered them on a piece of pattered paper and then adhered it on the base card.
Butterfly Trio

I used foam adhesives on the wings to add dimension to the card.

I hope my friend likes these.

Thanks for looking!
