Parent and Child

                   Love.....
I have been inspired by the following challenges to make this card.
Designs by Ryn Challenge
I masked the card stock and used distress inks to blend the background.
I also used a circular stencil.

I used the Sea Horse stamps as a Parent and Child theme 
and the sentiment 'Love' for the 'Precious' Theme at CASology

I also stamped the leaves on the bottom of the 'Parent' Sea Horse
to give to the 'Child' Sea Horse.
The leaves have been hi-lighted with gold mica and a white pen.
All the stamps I have used are from Designs by Ryn
except the sentiment.

The Seahorses have been coloured in Distress Inks, 
Glitter and highlighted with a white pen
Loved the themes in the challenges and enjoyed making the card.

Wonderful, wonderful card and I like everything about it. I had seahorses a long time ago and they lasted about one week. Also I too returned to college as an older adult and actually graduated the same year as my eldest son.

Hello again :) I just saw this entry to my challenge. You're spoiling me! Love your take on the parent and child theme. This stripe of stamping and colour is gorgeous! I like how you left space around it to draw the eye in.
