Rhino
Hello there my crafty friends! I just love this Rhino card! I know that rhinos aren't the cutest animals but there is something about them! LOL I started by tapping the Animal Prints stencil to a piece of milk card. I used Spiced Marmalade through the mask to cover the area of larger spots. Next I used Gathered Twigs in a swatch diagonally through the centre. I removed the mask and heat set the ink. Next I stamped the Rhino stamp and cut it out with the matching Rhino die. I coloured it with Distress markers (Tea Dye, Rusty Hinge, Weathered Wood and Antique Linen). I added mounting foam to the back of the die and attached a piece of vellum to the back so the stencil pattern would show through softly. I attached the rhino to the background with foam. The card was completed with milk mats and layers. The finished dimension are 8" x 8" in size. All for now. Sue x

Fabulous card Sue xx
Morning Sue.
A real wow card thank you.
A very happy birthday too.
Take care stay safe and have fun Kitty.
Morning Sue, todays card is amazing, love the fact you can see the stencilled pattern behind the Rhino, but it does not detract from the image. Take care and stay safe everyone. Bx
Good Morning Birthday Girl. Hope you have a good day followed by a great week-end/
I too think the Rhino has just a little something that cannot be ignored. On one of my trips to South Africa on a visit to the Kruger National Park I actually got up close to a Rhino (Quite a story) I just love the way you have coloured him/her and the soulful eyes could tell a story. Everything you have done is just perfect.
Thank You Sue.

Hello Sue a very happy birthday to you. Wishing you a wonderful day with plenty of special moments.
Today's card is special, just like you. I love the background colours to go with such a wonderful animal xx
Good Morning Sue. Such a beautiful card today Sue. And such a fabulous Animal for your focal centrepiece. Your background gives me the impression of just watching and observing this lovely animal that is shrinking far too quickly in numbers. A really beautiful card Sue Thankyou.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ... BIRTHDAY GIRL.
Hoping you have a brilliant day Sue. You deserve it so much.
Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone who needs them today
PLEASE KEEP STAYING SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏
Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds.
They may not be the cutest but they are majestic, have seen very many in the wild in my life having hailed from Africa and so sad to see how their numbers are dwindling, sad state of affairs, but we will try and preserve them as best we can. Love the card Sue, resonates with me, the stencil too is great...thank you Sue for an amazing card, your inspiration is just phenomenal....luv Ursula xx

Happy, Happy Birthday dear Sue! Wishing you a lovely day! You used very effective techniques and colors on your design today. Clever of you to use two different masks on your design giving a great effect. The colors you used are spot on. Using the vellum to give a softer look behind the Rhino puts the Rhino into the main "spotlight". Well done my friend. Hugs
Hi Sue
Happy Friday everyone and Happy Birthday Sue x
Obviously your rhino is wonderful and the way you have coloured ‘him’ is amazing but I have to say that background is spectacular x

Belated birthday wishes Sue. Hope you had a good day & managed some sort of celebration? A lovely card made with the die & stamp I was lucky enough to win! These die & stamp sets are just so easy to use. Thank you Sue.
The rhino isn’t the most attractive animal yet he’s somehow cute on your card. I like the texture you added with the background .
