It’s Wednesday, and this week, I made an Anniversary card using High Hopes Rubber Stamps Cow Hugs - TT136 for the image and Love An Udder - F205 for the sentiment. Love this adorable combination and thought it would be great for an Inspirational card or an Anniversary card!
To make my card this week, I began with a card base of Hammermill - Premium Colour 100 lb. cardstock, cut and scored to be 5.5" x 4.25". Doodle Bug Designs Inc. - Down on the Farm cardstock background paper was cut to the size of 5.5" x 4.25" and adhered directly to the base using double-sided tape. Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Black Soot and a finger dauber were used to ink around all of the edgs of the card. Using my Anna Griffin Empress Mini Machine and dies from Whimsy Stamps - Wavy Nested Frame Dies Set, I die cut one pattern out of Recollections - Black cardstock and a smaller cut from Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card. Using PinkFresh Studio - Slim Stripes dies and my Anna Griffin Empress Mini Machine, I die cut some black stripes using the half-inch die from Recollections - Black cardstock. I added some U-Line double-sided tape to the backs of the 2 black pieces and popped them up onto the patterned background. Using scisssors, I cut off the excess from the black stripe after it was adhered to the base.
I stamped the main image and sentiment onto the Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using my MISTI and Memento - Tuxedo Black. The image was coloured in with Copic Markers. I used a Sakura Glaze - Black pen, and Gelly Roll Sakura #8 Pen to create the eyes. After the image was coloured in, I added some U-Line double-sided tape to it and popped it up onto the black die cut. Using my machine again, I die cut the sentiment using Gina K Designs - Sentiment Strips. This was popped up with Scrapbook Adhesives - Black 3D Foam Strips onto the black stripe. To finish off my card, I added 2 little button cows on either side of the sentiment from Dress It Up - In the Barnyard and Dress It Up - Mooove It.
