Card with hills and sheep for WSC556

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a cute little card with hills and sheep for the Wednesday Sketch Challenge (WSC556) at the MFT Blog.

Card with hills and sheep for WSC556 at the MFT Blog.

This week’s sketch reminded me of hills so I took the liberty of chopping off the lower edge of the circles and decorating my scene with images from the BB Ewe Are the Best stamp set.

I started by die cutting two 3.5″ (9cm) circles of Sour Apple Card Stock and one 2.5″ (6,7cm) circle of Prickly Pear Prestige Card Stock. Then I inked them with Sour Apple and Jalapeño Popper Premium Dye Inks. I also spritzed some water on them for that cool textured effect.

Once they were dry, I temporarily adhered them together with tape and trimmed them with my paper trimmer. Then I added strips of card stock to the back of the large hills to put all three on the same level.

Next, I heat embossed the sentiment onto a strip of Black Licorice Prestige Card Stock and adhered it to the hills before gluing the ensemble to my A2 card base of Smooth White Card Stock.

Finally, I colored the images with the following Copic markers, before fussy cutting them and adhering them to my card: R27, R24, R22, W5, W3, W1, G43, G40, E53, E51 and E50.
