Hi
Welcome to this week's Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge.
I saw this sketch at Retrosketches and thought it would make a wonderful card using the new Sprinkles of Life stamp set and punch. I even used the cupcake sprinkles stamp as the straw for the animals to stand on.
Zoo Babies added some cuteness. :)
I used a stencil from a kit from the last catalogue for the sunshine, but the effect is easily achieved using a circle punched stencil and some rectangular post it notes. I used Hello Honey for the sun centre and So Saffron for the rays and used sponges to get a graduated look.
