Hi Everyone
This week I have a card for you using a really “cool dude”
which is one of the recently released animal character stamps from Carabelle
Studio.
Here’s What I Did:
The
background is a piece of mixed media card that I have used to mop up a
selection of Distress Oxides that I applied to my craft mat and spritzed with
water - I think everyone has fallen in love with Distress Oxides and there are
12 more colours available now at That’s Crafty! HERE, anyway back to my card. I
then stencilled a combination of Spiced Marmalade and Fossilized Amber through
Tim Holtz’s Rays Layering stencil. The sun was created by punching a circle out
of thin acetate and making my own stencil.
Onto a
separate piece of card I stamped the Cool Dude turtle and coloured him in using Colour Blend pencils, cut him out and added him to the card. A sentiment
accompanies him on the stamp set but I only used the half that said “take it
easy”, I covered up the wording I didn’t want before I inked it and then
stamped the section I wanted, the words Chill and are from a stamp from my
stash.
All was
mounted onto black card and added to an 8” x 8” card blank.
Here’s What I Used:
Circle Punch
Acetate
Carabelle Studio Stamp Set – Vacation (or as I call it Cool Dude)
Card
Blank
Have a fabulous week and I will see you next Tuesday
Love
