CARD DETAILS
I pulled out a few supplies from my stash to set a set for my raccoon – a portion of the Sea and Sky Cling background stamp from Simon, I am using just the sky part to create a sky for my card.
I recently shared another video tutorial showing how to use this Sea and Sky stamp and how to stamp all 3 of its portions, so you can check out that video for more ideas.
I used my MISTI stamping tool and stamped it onto Simon’s 120lb cardstock using Simon’s new Pawsitively Saturated ink in Sea Foam. This ink stamps like butter and it is a treat to work with.
Next, to create the bottom part of the scene, I used Color Block Scenic Scape dies from Spellbinders and I die-cut 3 hills out of the various shade of green cardstock from my stash to create the hills for the raccoon to sit on. Instead of having this scene cover the entire front of my card, I decided to contain it within a circle. I used a large circle die in my stash and used it to die-cut the scene out.
So the with the background done, I moved on to stamping the main images for my card – the raccoon, the campfire, the bird, and the pine trees. I stamped all in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto Simon’s 120lb cardstock.
I colored images with Copic markers in:
- W1, W3, W5, and R20 to color the raccoon
- E37, E33, and E31 to color the logs
- YR18, Y19, Y08, and Y11 to color the campfire and bird
- B000 and B00 to color the wing on the bird
Next, I fussy cut these images using scissors. You can also use coordinating dies. I foam-mounted the images onto the background to create the scene.
To add a sentiment to this card I stamped one onto a white cardstock panel – at the very bottom and I stamped it in VersaFine Onyx black ink. And the sentiment, of course, reads We Go Together like S’mores and Campfire. I foam mounted my circle scene on top and added this panel to the A2 white top folding card base.
I also added a lot of white pen details to add some highlights to the images, I used a Sakura Gelly Roll pen in size 08 and embellished the card with green gems from Spellbinders.
