Panda Card





















One of the many things to love about DC is the panda exhibit at the zoo. We love our pandas! In fact, they are a part of our major news announced on tv. Our latest news is that it's mating season-and it's not going very well. So, the panda folks are stepping in to help where nature is not. (Honest, this is big news!) Did I mention we love our pandas? So it seemed only appropriate to post a card in tribute to our pandas. This stamp is by Coranado stamps. It was inked in black Versafine on white card stock and cut out. A little bit of color was added with colored pencils. Then the image was glued on black card stock and cut to outline the image. On the large white paper bamboo stalks were inked with green and stamped on the paper. That paper was then over laid with strips of torn green vellum. This was then mounted onto black, then green paper. The pandas were then placed on top. The chinese coin was glue on the side with Diamond glaze. Hopefully we'll have a new little panda to see next year-I'm sure it'll make the news.
