Stampin with Liz Design: Fall Buddies Card!

Hi everyone, welcome to a new fun Blog Post today! I'm showing you guys a card today that I created with the Fall Buddies stamp set from Hello Bluebird. Al though I didn't went for the fall theme, I created a fun winter scene with this set! These cute critters with there scarfs are perfect for winter as well!

As for most of my cards, I started by creating my background first. I love setting this part of my card up first, but always with a finished picture of my project in mind. For this card I wanted snow and trees, but soft pinkish colours. I blended the background with a blending tool and Picked Raspberry and Wilted Violet Distress Ink.

I added snow by using some white paint mixed with a few drops of water. You can just use a small brush to spatter the ink with on your card. I then added two trees which I diecutted with the Birch Trees Dies from MFT. I used two parts of white cardstock for the bottom part, that I diecutted with the Stitched Snow Dies from MFT as well. I diecutted the whole background piece with a Stitched Rectangle Die from MFT into card size.

I just love the sweet animals that are in this stamp set. I stamped three of these fun guys and coloured them with Copic Markers. You can see the colours I used in the photograph below.  I then fussy cutted them so I could place them with dimensionals on my card. I think there are coordinating dies for this set out there, but I'm waiting for  a Scan 'N Cut device to arrive, lol, so I didn't order the dies. Can't wait to start playing with that new toy! I added the white embossed text on dimensionals as well.

I hope you enjoyed my new project, I'll hopefully see you soon!
