Winston is a Football Star!

GO WINSTON!

I had so much fun with the little image of Winston playing football from our new Touchdown Tails stamp set that I made a bunch of cards with it. It was so fun to color him in different colors! NND headquarters is in Wisconsin so for this card I chose the Wisconsin Badger colors of red and white for his jersey! I stamped him onto watercolor paper and colored him with some zig clean color watercolor markers - I'm still learning how to use these - as you can see I don't have them completely under control and went out of the lines a couple of times - but I figured that's part of the fun of watercolor - it doesn't have to be perfect!

Then I added on some fun pops of yellow paper and washi tape because I felt like the card needed another color. I also stamped a little bold football and added it next to him for fun!

For the second card today I also used the same image of Winston from the Touchdown Tails stamp se tbut this time I colored him in Packer colors -  that's our favorite team! I also colored this images with the watercolor markers and then added in a bit of distress ink on the edges of the paper. I created a fun football background by stamping the little bold image a bunch of times on the kraft paper and then added the "take a time out and celebrate" sentiment on a little banner with some twine.
