Hello and welcome! It's my fourth week as a Guest Designer for Just Us Girls, where it's Photo Week.
I'm also playing along with the Addicted to Stamps and the current Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.
For my card, I was inspired by everything in the Photo Week photo - the colors of blue and red, the winter scene and the hearts - but instead of snow people, I used cute animals.
I love this sweet scene between the bunny and deer! Like many card makers, Anita Jeram illustrations are some of my favorites. First the scene was stamped on white cardstock, then I used a black Copic Multiliner to add additional snow in the background to give the scene more depth. Then everything was colored with Copic markers. I grabbed the heart stamps from another AJ set, stamped, colored and die cut them.
Next, a panel of light blue was adhered to the card base, then the main image was die cut with a scallop rectangle die and layered on two additional scallop rectangles for added dimension. The hearts were glued to the scene, painted with a shimmer pen, then covered with Glossy Accents to make them shiny and that finished things off for this super simple card. I opted not to add a greeting right now; I can always do that before I send it.
Thanks for visiting, I really appreciate it! Be sure to use the link above to check out all the fabulous cards by the DT members and hopefully join in the fun this week!
Take care!
