It's time for a new Color Challenge at Splitcoaststampers! I'm hosting this week and have chosen Real Red, Pool party and Garden Green, with a dessert option to use your favorite yellow.
I used the current sketch challenge at Fab Friday for my design inspiration.
I'm also joining the current Tic Tac Toe challenge (right vertical row-summer, scene, free).
And finally I'm linking up to NBUS (Never-Before-Used-Schtuff).
For my card, I used super cute stamp set from MFT. I bought it about a month ago and this is it's first use.
I love mushroom stamps (and cute critters too), so I knew there would be a home for this set in my craft room! I started with a panel of Bristol card stock and ink blended the sky using a mini cloud stencil. Next I stamped a scene using the cute relaxing squirrel and butterfly and colored with Copic markers. I ended up adding a couple of additional mushrooms to the scene, fussy cutting then popping them up with bits of foam tape.
With the scene complete, it was layered on a red panel then adhered to the brown card base. The sentiment was stamped in black pigment ink, trimmed down then also popped up with foam tape. The sentiment seemed a bit lonely by itself on that long strip of paper so a couple of yellow hearts were added and seemed like a good final touch.
Thanks so much for visiting, I really appreciate it! I hope you'll use the link above to SCS and join us for this week's color challenge!
