The Library Challenge - The Note

At The Library, the book is The Note by Zoe Folbigg. 


The Note: The book everyone's talking about by [Folbigg, Zoë]
I recently read this book...well, tbh, I didn't finish it , as it just wasn't to my taste - but I do LOVE the cover, and I think you can see that from my first card. This card was just pure stamping - the vehicles are by Artemio, the sentiment Penny Black and the stiched-style border stamp is Mama Elephant. 

I'd like to enter:
Country View  black and white plus one 


For my second card I just used the title and went with musical notes  - the musical notes here , and the sentiment, are stamped but the main image is a digi by Mo's Digital Pencil. I cropped it and only used half the image so I had plenty of white space above it. I coloured the image with alcohol markers. 

I'd like to enter:
Little Red Wagon  winter blues 

I hope you'll join in the challenge at The Library.

  16. A lovely set of cards. I'm glad that even though the book was not to your liking, it was still able to inspire you into making a lovely card. Love the carolers on your second card. The music notes are the perfect finishing touch.
