Mama Elephant November Stamp With Me Challenge

Here is Mama Elephant November Stamp With Me challenge - create a new card and send it to someone. 

I decide to make a card and send it to my friend who has just got a new job. Here is the card I made:

I used this cute stamp set "Little Edibles" and the "oh happy day" from "Bountiful Blessings" set to create this card. I stamped "oh happy day" on a piece of white cardstock with Versafine black ink and applied clear embossing powder to heat embossed it. Then, I stamped these cut little smiling face fruit randomly on the white cardstock. In order to blend blue Distress ink on the white cardstock, I used the "molotow" masking liquid pen to mask all of these little fruit (see below) and let them dry. 

After the masking liquid dry, I brushed the blue Distress ink pad onto the background. Then I rub off the masking liquid with an eraser. I colored these little fruit with Copic markers and brushed the clear Wink of the Stella pen on each fruit. Below is a closer look of the card:

Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI
Stamps: Mama Elephant
Ink Pads: Versafine, Distress ink pad
Others: masking liquid, clear embossing powder, Copic markers, clear Wink of the Stella pen
