*Critters*

Welcome to Wednesday all... and another day of the Random Acts of Cardness prompts with Scrap 'n Stamp Canada!  Todays word is CRITTER!

The team wants you to share your cards featuring CRITTERS on the Facebok Challenge Page!  We love seeing your ideas!  You can also share it to your Facebook page, Instagram account, Twitter or other groups with the #SNSChallenge hashtag!

I had a few ideas floating in my head for this card.  I am not one who likes to "waste" time or supplies but when coming up with my card for today, that's exactly what I did.  I tried a few things that just didn't work out... and while I was a little annoyed that I had "wasted" time and supplies, I was also proud of myself for just playing with my stash instead of worrying too much about it.  I don't know why I expect my first attempts to always be perfect... because they never are LOL!

Did you know that you can blend coloured pencils with just a lighter coloured (or white) coloured pencil?  I left a few spots with the "rougher" look but did a bunch of blending as well.  I find it's best to lay down a layer of the white, the a light layer of your chosen colour, back with the white, back with more colour... layering it to get the depth of colour you want.
