it’s SCENIC SATURDAY with AMYBELLA!

Hello my Bellarific friends! Amy here with a very timely Scenic Saturday card to share. I really can’t think of anyone who hasn’t been effected by the spread of the Corona virus in one way or another. And while I hope and pray that all of you stay safe and healthy I have to admit that this whole thing has gotten me creating more ‘get well’ cards in my down time. So when it came time to ink up a stamp for today I grabbed Under the Weather Mochi Girl right away. Unfortunately for her it looks like she is going to have to ride out the virus but I am confident she will get better in no time. 🙂

I know when I am ill the only place I want to be is curled up in my bed so I chose to color in a bed around our poor Under the Weather Mochi Girl. Sure she is facing the foot of the bed with her comforter piled high around her… I like to think she was looking for her phone and just got too tired to turn back around. Another all too common detail I added are the used tissues around her, you have to think ahead a bit to create them because it requires leaving random white spaces as you color in the mattress she is resting on. Then once the mattress is done just take a couple light grey markers to add some crumpled triangle like shadow shapes to create dimension. The sentiment that I ‘hung’ on the wall is part of the Mochi Girls Sentiments set. Framing it is an easy way to incorporate the message right into the scene you are creating plus help draw the viewers eye to it as well.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, not only do I wish you a crafty weekend but a safe and healthy one too!
