My card is for this month's Tickle a Teapotter Challenge, and as Sabrina pointed out: it's the last Tuesday of the month, the last Tuesday of the year, the last day of the year, so I wanted to make something special. I watched the tutorial for the Swing Easel Card and adjusted the size to a 5 x 7 card, more room for critters!
I stamped my images, colored with Copic markers and fussy cut them out. The gnome stamp also came with a matching die, but I trimmed it down it a bit. I stamped the background village, colored and glued to my easel. Then I glittered almost everything (I love sparkle) and added Crystal lacquer to eyes, noses and boots! I used 3D adhesive dots to attach gnomes, bugs and mushrooms. Then, I heat embossed "Just for You" in white. I added some enamel dots to finish off the base area.
Thanks Sabrina, I had so much fun creating my little gnome scene!

Fabulous fantasy land! I love all those whimsical characters and how you utilized every bump out and set back to give more depth and dimension to this adorable scene.

What a wonderful village filled with whimsical houses, lovely village gnomes and of course all the creepy crawlies that would live in the gardens. You have “village” well and truely covered. Thank you for all your lovely, caring thoughts for what we are going through here at the moment.
