Hello friends! It's Sandy from @SandyCogdillDesigns. I hope everyone had a nice Holiday Season. I am re-charged and ready for some new projects. How about you!
Today, I have a card that was created with some new products from Lawn Fawn. I am using I Heart Pandas Add-On Clear Stamps, I Heart Pandas Add-On Lawn Cuts and Bamboo Backdrop: Portrait.
I wanted to do a nighttime background, that was coordinate well with the bamboo layer that I was going to put on top. One of my favorite things to do for backgrounds is do ink blending. I used Pumice Stone Distress Oxide Ink, Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide Ink and Black Soot Distress Oxide Ink. I watered down a little Spellbinders Splatter White Opaque Watercolor and splattered it on the ink blended area.
To give the Bamboo Backdrop a little extra color and interest, I spritzed Twisted Citron Distress Spritz and Mowed Lawn Distress Spritz a lime colored cardstock. It is really hard to see in the photo, but it has a really nice shimmer. These spritzes are one of my favorite new things to play with. I used the larges of the Lawn Fawn's Large Stitched Rectangles to cut out my background for the bamboo layer.
Once I had my bamboo backdrop cut out and adhered to my ink blended layer, I used Lawn Fawn - Lawn Cuts - Henry's ABC's to cut out my lettering. I used two different colors of cardstock to give the letters dimension. With the letters layered, I adhered them to the backdrop.
I colored my stamped images using COPIC markers in the following colors:
Once I have those colored and cut out, I will place them at the bottom of my card.
I used the sentiment that comes in the stamp set. I heat embossed the sentiment using the Versamark Warer Mark Stamp Pad and Lawn Fawn Black Embossing Powder on a very light gray cardstock. For the little speech bubble above the panda's head I used Lawn Fawn - Clear Stamp - All The Speech Bubbles and Lawn Fawn - Lawn Cuts - All The Speech Bubbles.
I had some little stars that I had previously cut out of silver glitter paper using Lawn Fawn - Lawn Cuts - Hearts & Stars Skinny Tag.
This stamp set makes the cutest belated birthday card.
Thank you for stopping by the blog today and I hope that you have a great day!!!
