I made this card for the CAS Summer DT search. The challenge was to use a technique and wood grain. I chose to use wood grain that represented an old chair and sign you might find on the porch of a beach house. I made the chair and sign to look like it was white at one time and is now weathered from the sun, wind and sand. I chose to use copic markers for my medium. I stamped the image using momento tuxedo black ink. I colored the wood chair using copics C1,C2,C3, the basket using E55, W3, the flowers and ribbon with R35, RV42, BV000, RV42, R12, Y04, Y32. Highlighted the chair with B000. For the wood sign I used the MFT washi die and colored it with swipes of C1, C2 and W3 and added small black dots as nail holes. I purposefully stamped my image off center to make it look rustic and handmade. And finished by adhering to a kraft card base.

Cute! I love how you used the washi die for the sign!
