It's a Junior Jungle on Noah's Ark

I needed a baby card, and thought of Noah's Ark.

1. Cut glossy cardstock to 9 x 6 and fold in half to make 4 1/2 x 6 size card
2. Found a cartoon of the Ark on line and used it as a guide to draw an Ark for my animals
3. Cut two round holes for the windows. Cut out the front arch window with a craft knife
4. Cut out the Ark and added some color and boat lines with markers
5. Positioned the Ark on the base card and drew inside the windows with a pencil
6. For the animals, I used markers directly on the images, blending at least two colors on the stamp for depth and interest. Except the zebra image, I used a black ink pad. Stamped the animals on the base card
7. I then stippled some color in the windows. I didn't have to stay inside  the lines because the Ark would cover it :o)
8. I cut a strip of blue card stock to match the width of the base card and used decorative scissors to cut ripples for the ocean.  I added some motion to the ocean with markers and a white pen
9. I adhered the Ark, then the water and added the little bird last to led the way.   My le boo boo on this card.... I forgot to erase the pencil lines before I adhered the Ark. OOps!
