The Library Challenge - All Creatures Great and Small


The new book at The Library is All Creatures Great and Small by James Herriot. 

All Creatures Great and Small: The Classic Memoirs of a Yorkshire Country Vet (James Herriot 1) By James Herriot | World of Books

For my first card (top) , I was clearly inspired by the cover, This country scene was printed from a My Craft Studio CD - it was a uncoloured image in the No Stamp Required folder, so I coloured it with Promarkers and stamped a sentiment. 

I'd like to enter:

For my second card I took inspiration from the title- this being a small creature!  I cut the sentiment on the Silhouette and used the negative , putting striped paper behind it. Then I stamped the sun, bee and trail and added dots to the edges. 

I'd like to enter:

    I love the cards you created with the inspiration book - two different takes and both are lovely. The color black, white, and yellow color scheme is so fresh. It's fun to use the negative for words. I often use that technique for scrapbook layout titles.

    Thanks for joining us for our Cut it Up for our Butterflies and Bugs challenge!

    Lovely to see you sharing with us again Marina. A beautifully made card and as Jane said it evokes memories of the books and TV shows. I was an avid watcher.

    Two really different design versions with the same source of inspiration. I think your coloring with different shades of green is so well done, a lovely countryside scene. The striped sentiment on the second card is a great graphic detail for a clean design.
