Raccoon Friends - Ombre Diecut Sentiment

Hi Guys!

Have you seen these adorable racoons from Little Miss Muffet Stamps? When I saw them I knew I just needed to get them on a card, when setting them up to print an idea starting to form. So I flipped one of them so that could look like a little group, but I decided to print them one at a time and build a scene after. Then I looked on google to the see how a raccoon really looks like, and well I decided that I didn't want just grey raccoons, instead I picked a group of somewhat neutral colours, and one colour that would really pop.



It wasn't until I realized that I had the friends die from MFT that the whole card came together. I decided to use my copics to give it an ombre effect, and there for I choosed to use the neenah cardstock as my card base, and for the die as neenah is a pretty good paper to colour on (even tho I prefer the Make It Colour Blending Paper, which I don't use for my cardbases). I put together a little video showing my colouring and how I put the card together, hope you enjoy. Oh and don't forget to join the Little Miss Muffets Challanges in the chance to win some goodies!

Childhood summer!

Hi Guys!

Summer means so many different things for so many different people. For me when I think of summer I think of when I was little, the last day of school before the summer vacation. The dew in the grass, being all dressed up heading to church to sing for the parents. The smells and the sun. So when I saw the flower girl collection I knew that they would be perfect for my CAS card for the theme of summer.



I've chosen a very soft color-scheme, to match a dress I had as I child. I was a blond and blue eyed girl but thought that brown would be better suited for my Isabella. I did some distress ink smooching on a small piece of watercolour cardstock and die-cut the hi from that.



To keep with the soft feeling I choose to stamp the summer in a brown ink that matched her hair. To tie it all together I did some splatters onto my die-cut background with the same distress inks I've used for the sentiment and a little bit of bronze ink. For those finishing touches I added a couple of enamel dots to balance up the card.

So now it's your turn to join in, come and have some clean and simple fun with us!
