Drummer Boy!!!

 It’s Wednesday, and this week, I made a card using Drummer & Friends - RDG005 by High Hopes Rubber Stamps for the main image and Pa Rum Pa Pum Pum - H090 (High Hopes Rubber Stamps) for the sentiment. This is the start of a new month and we're celebrating the Christmas Cheer release for the month of September at High Hopes.

To make my card this week, I began with a card base of AC Cardstock - White cut and scored to be 6" x 6". I cut the background paper from Heartfelt Creations - Festive Winterscapes Collection - Sheet 9A paper to be the same size as the base and inked around the edges using Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Chipped Sapphire. I applied this directly to the base card using double-sided tape. The sentiment was then stamped onto the background paper using Versamark Ink and heat embossed using my Marvy Uchida - Embossing Heat Tool and Ranger Embossing Powder White – Extra Fine Detail.

The image was stamped using my MISTI and Memento - Tuxedo Black ink. I coloured in the image with Copic markers.  I fussy cut around it and then inked the edges with a black marker. I popped it up onto the background using 3M double-sided tape. I inked under the image with C2 copic marker to create a shadow and finish off the card.
