Happy Thursday to you all!
Since I have fallen completely head over heels for slim line cards, I am looking at older stamp sets in a new light and pulled out the Lawn Fawn Coaster Critters stamp & coordinating die set for this card!
Since the images on this set are really small, I wanted to have them be center stage and went with a soft and basic design and color palette.
To start my card I created an 8 1/2 x 3 1/2 card base and trimmed some thick cardstock to fit on the front. I then inked the piece with tumbled glass oxide ink, going lighter near the edges. Next, I die cut some grass and inked with shabby shutters oxide ink, going lighter towards the top of the grass.
I stamped all the images from Lawn Fawn Coaster Critters stamp set, colored with light copic markers, and then cut out with the coordinating dies. With the smaller images I always get the coordinating dies because I know I will be using lots of the cuties on one card!
I also stamped the sentiment on thick white cardstock and trimmed to fit on the grass. Next, I layered the images with glue or pop dots varying to give them depth.
I really went back and forth deciding if I wanted to add any sequins or nuvo drops but felt it would take away from the softness and instead added some clouds from the Lawn Fawn Village Shop stamp set but Lawn Fawn has so many sets with clouds you can pick from any!
I hope I have inspired you to look at some of your older sets in a new light and share with us your creations on the Kraftgali Fan Club on Facebook! Stop into the shop to see the great deals here!
Thanks so much for visiting!
