A couple of mixed media cards...

Hello everyone, happy Monday- I hope you had a nice weekend!

Today I'm sharing a couple of mixed media cards that feature adorable images from Vera Lane Studio! These were really easy to put together because the background panels were already done... I always make several at a time for future cards :)
The cat image is from this set and the llama and flowers are from this set... all images were colored with Copics, fussy cut out and then I added a little detailing with a white Posa Pen. The label sentiments are from Mama Elephant and the stamped sentiment is from Inky Antics.
I used several Distress Oxide inks to create the backgrounds along with stencils, stamps, dies and glitter paste. I also used the 'stamping with embossing folders' technique on both cards with the Kaisercraft's Waffle folder... but this time I just pressed the pattern onto the panel instead of running them through my Cuttlebug machine.

I love how fun and colorful these cards turned out because I'm going to add them to my donation box... I'm sure they will put a smile on someone's face! 

Well, that's all for now... thanks so much for stopping by and for all of the comments you leave!
