613 Avenue Create Challenge – A Meditative Retirement Card!

Hello, how are things?

It is time for a new monthly challenge at 613 AVENUE CREATE.

Our challenge is monthly and always ‘Anything Goes’ with an optional twist which today is ‘Any Holiday’.

 

I chose to follow the Anything Goes theme this time as I had a retirement card to make for one of my sisters-in-law.

 

DI’S DIGITAL STAMPS has some fabulous modern ladies in their store and I thought that this particular one, LOTUS LOTTIE YOGA, would be just right for my SiL. It’s an ironic sentiment as she has no conception of relaxation at all. She is always on the go so retirement will probably mean her cramming even more into her days (my poor brother…teehee).

Ingredients:

Digi Stamp: LOTUS LOTTIE YOGA

Colouring: Arrtx Pencils on Faber Castell Mixed Media Paper

Paper: LDRS Creative

Dies: Chloe’s Creative Cards ‘8 x 8 Fancy Squares’ - Generic Flowers & Candles 

Sentiment: Created in Canva

We would love to have you play along with us so pop over to the blog and join in the fun.

Before I go we are having a
