Happy WCD my friends!!! I love making cards and tags and I also love stamping!!! So for my contribution for todays festivities I have combined the two to make this cute little woodland inspired card.
I used this sketch from the June CardMaps on the PageMaps site.
I used two sets of stamps from Lawn Fawn called Into the Woods and Woodgrain Backdrop to create this cute little "squirrel" popping out of a tree.
I pulled out my Copics and Distress Inks to add a little colour. The squirrel is coloured with Copics, the heart is stamped with Distress Ink and here is a little trick.
To add a little texture to my stamped images I like to stamp on a subtle pattern and then add colour with my Distress Ink and Ink Blending Tool. The pattern was a small grey houndstooth and the Vintage Photo Distress Ink really makes the image "pop".
I hope you find lots of card making inspiration today!!! Can't wait to see all of the fabulous creations the SCT team has in store!!!
