For my sample I used Steven’s darling Sharin’ Some Cocoa image. I stamped the image twice, once on Cosmo Cricket 1934 paper, once on X-Press It! Blending Card with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I colored the mice on the white cardstock with Copic Markers (boy fur: T1, T3, T4 nose, ear: E93, Jacket: B91, B95, B97, girl fur: E34, E35, E37, Nose: E02, E04, Jacket: YG03, YG25, YG17, Cups: C0, C1, C3, E37), cut them out and colored the the edges with my black marker. Next I cut out the couch and colored it with Copic Markers (YR21, YR23, YR24, E07, E09, E18). Shading paper pieced images was the last challenge over on the Copic Challenge blog.
A 1/2″ x 2 1/2″ piece of 1934 Cosmo Cricket paper was colored with Copic Marker E09 and adhered to a 2 1/2″ square of paper from the same pack and was stitched to a 2 5/8″ square of Classic Cream cardstock. A piece of black cardstock was cut and embossed with Label 15 Nestabilities die. The stitched layers were adhered to the Black Label die. The image was adhered to these layers with dimensionals.
A 2″ x 3 3/4″ piece of 1934 Cosmo Cricket paper was colored with Copic Marker E07 and adhered to a 3 3/4″ square of the same paper pack. The layers were stitched to a 3/16″ bigger piece of black cardstock. Seam binding was tied around the layers and topped with a blue button. The layers were adhered to a 4 1/4″ x 8 1/2″ piece of Kraft cardstock that had been folded in half.
The sentiment is from Kimmie’s Birthday Sentiments. It was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on Classic Cream cardstock that had been cut and embossed with Tag dies. The tag center was sponged with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. A washer was adhered to the front of the tag and a hole was pierced through the tag there. It was attached to the button/bow combo with waxed Linen.
The card base is pretty simple, just something to tie it in with the front.
Next on the blog hop is Jeanne Streiff. Check out what she has in store for you! Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day! Hugs and smiles
