Announcing.... "Nesting" by Asela Hopkins
My first card uses Gina K's Pure Luxury Heavy Weight Kraft card stock. I embossed it the front with my Cuttlebug Distress Stripes folder. I lightly ran over the embossing with my Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Tea Dye to bring it out just a bit more. I colored the images with my Copic markers and used my Nestabilites, Deckled Rectangles to mount them. The feather was stamped separately and then I cut it out and placed it on the rectangle. I simply LOVE the buttons I used on the corner that came from the Chocolate Mix Button Jars. This color set is perfect for those nature, manly cards.
Announcing... "The Giving Tree" by Theresa Momber
I was so excited to see this set if nothing more than the fact that it is one of my kids' favorite books!!! I couldn't wait to get my hands on it! For my card today I initially was going for a single layer card but decided to add the "grass" to it and then I raised my sentiment up with a bit of orange card stock under it. I stamped my squirrel, birdhouse and bird on Gina K's Pure Luxury Layering Weight card stock and cut them out before adhering them to the tree. I used my Copics to add a bit more texture to my bird and my Multi-Liner pen to throw on a dot for the bird's eye. ;-)
My grass was simply cut free-handed with my scissors and adhered to the base.
