Ruth's Birthday card and a Pelican

Just a quickie post tonight, Killing Eve is on shortly so I'm on the clock here ;)

This is my sister's birthday card using a recent-ish purchase from Whipper Snapper.  Coloured with polychromos.  I got a bit carried away with adding all my extras, I could have done with a bigger size card though this is kinda the biggest I normally make!
Gummiapan squiggly edge die; Paper Smooches heart die.

And this one uses a real oldie from High Hopes, paired with a few fishies from an MFT set.
Coloured with watercolour pencils and clear gloss added to his eyes, feet and the rope round the posts.  Water stencil is from Simon Says Stamp.

You work well under pressure! Both these cards are super cute. That little mouse swinging from a star is so sweet. I think your sister will love it. Your pelican is a winner, too, although I think he's getting ready to do a little "fishing." Hope you're having a good weekend.

These cards are both delightful and made me smile! You've got a great eye for composition and adding just the right touches to pull the scenes together. I liked how each card is totally different, yet each is amazing. You did a great job on these and I'm so glad you took the time to share your talents with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
