The Card Concept- Challenge #40

Hi crafty friends!
Happy Wednesday!

Here today with another challenge for The Card Concept. This weeks challenge is Forest Friends. How adorable is that inspiration picture?


For my card I used a few different stamp sets from Lawn Fawn. The critters are from Critters in the Forest. I stamped my fox first and then masked him off with a mask I created by simply stamping him again on printer paper, fussy cutting him out and temporally adhering it on top of my stamped image, I then stamped my other two friends and masked them as well to stamp my trees in the background and the wood-grain, I also blended the same color ink I stamped the wood-grain stamp in around the critters. I took off my masks and colored my critters with Copic markers. I added my sentiment from the Happy Harvest set and used a border from the Stitched Borders die, around the sides and adhered the panel on a white card base to keep it nice and clean.


That's it for my card today. Would love if you played along with us at  The Card Concept. The challenge ends Monday Oct 5 at noon(PST).
Thanks so much for stopping by today!!
Hope your all having a lovely week so far!
