This is the second of two cards I created on Sunday
afternoon when I needed to just play and relax! I have purchased some fun new stamps and dies from Hero
Arts, and wanted to make a few Operation Write Home cards.
This sketch is from Just Add Ink, and was super fun to work
with. This paper is from SEI’s En
Route paper line, and came from my “card kit” paper scraps from completed
scrapbook layouts. Since they are
scraps, not all of the actual names of the individual sheets are known. I was able to make 2 coordinating cards
from the leftover scraps of one layout.
Yeah!
The images are from Hero Arts Missing You and the matching
Frame cuts. The Owl was stamped in
Tsukineko Memento Tuxedo Black and then colored with Chameleon Pens. I used Bisque NU1, Cool Gray CG8 and
Warm Sunset YO3. I first flicked a
few pen lines into the areas to give a sense of feathers. The sentiment is stamped in Tsukineko
Memento Luxe Rich Cocoa and
heat embossed with clear embossing powder. Spellbinders Standard Circles Large is the circle die
cut. The owl image needed a little
“grounding”, so I die cut a branch using Quickutz Wildflower die and a creative
trimming. The banner is hand
cut. All the layers were inked
with Tsukineko Memento Luxe Rich Cocoa before the card
was adhered together.
This card is entered into the following challenges:
