I Miss Seeing You

Thanks for stopping by! I sure hope you are having a great day! I'm sharing a card that I made for this month's challenge - Anything Goes! The challenge is a great way to see what others are making with your favorite Poppystamps dies, and when you link your own design to an on line gallery like Instagram you're automatically entered to win the monthly prize - a $20 gift card to the shop! You can always find the latest challenge by clicking the New Challenge tab at the top of the Poppystamps blog page.

My cards always start the same way. I arrange images on a piece of clear plastic the same size as my card base. I rearrange and add items until I'm happy with the layout and then I experiment by adding different backgrounds under the clear plastic. This gives me a preview of the finished card. On this card it helped me figure out how high to ink the green grassy area before beginning the blue purple sky.

The Nordic Waving Fox was easy to assemble. The hardest part was deciding on what color her outfit should be. I added rosy cheeks with an alcohol marker. Pretty flowers from the Lovely Flower Bundle are cut in shades of pink and yellow.

I stamped the sentiment directly on the Distress Oxide Panel with Versafine Ink. I think the stamp vs. a die cut sentiment gives this one a cleaner look. The finishing touch is a sprinkle of Treasure Chest Fairy Gemstones.

I sure hope you find some time to play along! We love seeing your beautiful designs!
