Today’s set is going to bring out more of the feels! This set is called Feels 2 and it’s adorable!

I love her! My son and all his little friends use this hangry word all the time. So I figured it was super appropriate for this image so I just printed it on the front of the card with a copic multiliner!

Fluffy Unicorns

Posted in Copic, The Greeting Farm, Uncategorized by
Hey everyone! I am here today sharing with you a little inspiration.
Every once in a while I go through my stamp stash and find something so absolutely adorable. They just have to be used again immediately! That is what happened when I saw the Fluffy Unicorns the other day.
The Greeting Farm - Fluffy Unicorns - Jessie Banks.jpg
I coloured up the unicorns simply with my copic markers. I then cut a panel out of Bristol Smooth cardstock and used my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. Stamping out the sentiment with some purple ink finished off the front of this card.
Thanks for stopping by,
