Hi guys! Today I had some crafty time and I decided to make a card for the Newton's Nook Designs Inky Paws Challenge.
We needed to add a texture - wood, cork and/or metal. I decided to go with a wood-look background. I embossed the background with a PTI impression plate on kraft cardstock. Then I added some Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain distress ink. The super cute sunflower is a free digi image from Newton's Nook. You can find it here. I printed the image twice - once onto masking paper and once onto cardstock. I cut out my mask and added the color using several shades of distress ink. I ended up adding some extra shading with a Copic. The li'l ladybug is coated with Wink of Stella and Glossy Accents. A washi tape strip down the side and some letter stickers (also coated with Glossy Accents) finish the card! My daughter oohed and ahhed over this card....so guess who will be getting a little note from Mom soon!
I hope you get a chance to play along! This is always a fun challenge!
