thank ewe

a black sheep with fluffy white fur is exactly what a sheep lover is looking for when shopping for her baby shower thank you cards




tiny irregular cubes of felt were layered on to mimic real sheep fur texture, to further bring out the cuddliness of the sheep, its face and legs were left in black.




a simple boarder was added to draw attention to the focal point - the sheep

I enjoyed every minute of creating this thank you card for a yellow and green theme baby shower, the mother-to-be adores things simple yet elegant, so a card with a bib taking center stage couldnt be more perfect for her.



The card itself has a smooth finish, but the bib has a rough texture, which made white layered with white anything but borning





bib's trim was finished with sage green thread, hand sewned!



"thank you" written in brown ink for a softer look than black ink



name of my workshop letterpressed on the back of the cards



cards (a set of 20) with envelopes wrapped in yellow to continue the theme color and to add a little personal touch.
