Happy Thursday, everyone! My boys finally went back to school on Tuesday after being home for over 4 weeks, so schedules are finally getting back to normal for everybody. We were all about to go stir crazy! LOL! I haven’t really had any cardmaking mojo the last week or so, but I did get a chance to sit down and color some images that I’ve neglected over the last few months…and I’m showcasing one today!
Today’s card is for the CASE Study Challenge #23 over at the CASE Study Challenge Blog. Here’s my new sample:
…based on this card:
I decided to use the layout from the original sample, but I changed the color palette and the stamps used. I used the C.C. Designs’ image “Sugarplums Teddy Emma” from All That Scraps along with a sentiment from the “Bear Hugs” set by There She Goes. I stamped the image in Black Ink and colored it with Copic Sketch Markers. I stamped the sentiment onto a scrap piece of Olive Cardstock, then created a sentiment flag to scroll along the bottom of the image. I cut out the focal panel using the Out Of The Box Technique with my Nesties and Big Shot, then paired the completed focal panel with some patterned papers from BasicGrey’s Pyrus paper pad along with some Rust, Olive, and White Cardstock. I added some Faux Stitching along the edges of the largest patterned paper panel using a Mat Pack, Paper Piercer, and Chocolate Marker. After adding some Ribbon, a Corduroy Button with Twine, and several Dimensionals the card was complete. So how did this one turn out? :)
