My granddaughter is crazy about sloths, and with her birthday approaching I couldn't resist this sloth stamp that came with a recent issue of Creative Stamping.
The accompanying magazine included instructions for a bridge fold card which I adapted slightly to make it stronger, as it need to survive international postage. Everything is coloured with Promarkers, and the sloth isn't that pale in real life, but these gloomy November days mean that everything has to be photographed using flash and sometimes it just isn't possible to edit out that washed out look (same goes for humans, too, on these dreary November days!) The background is made using stamps from the set - there are two different contrasting backgrounds although one of them is hiffen behind the image, in the recess of the bridge fold.
I am sharing this with
