Angie's (Ohmypaper!) imaginative VSN challenge, Unexpected in Woodlands, has us creating a woodlands scene on our card, and adding something unexpected to it! Well, I certainly wouldn't expect to find these two in the woods!
Stamped the robots in Tuxedo Black on the grey CS, then again in Lovely Lilac, Ladybug, Only Orange, & Green Galore. Fussy-cut the black robots, & then fussy-cut out bits & pieces from the other colors & paper-pieced. The bitty robot stamp has teeny tiny antenna, but I wasn't able to fussy-cut them so I added the bit of copper wire, curled first around an old crochet hook.
Stamped the birch trees on the Cream CS in Espresso Truffle & colored a bit with the white pencil. Stamped Saturn & the star sparkles with Versamark & heat-embossed with Black Sparkle & Sterling Silver. Then ink-blended the ground & sky, dabbing carefully around the trees because I didn't want to mask them. (In retrospect, I'm sure this card took way longer than the allotted 60 minutes, I probably shouldn't enter it into VSN...) Sponged edges with Lovely Lilac. Layered onto PP & onto card front.
Stamped the sentiment on Green Galore CS with Versamark, heat-embossed with Sterling Silver EP, & die-cut with one of the Labels dies. Die-cut a circle from Concord Crush & layered them together. Popped up the sentiment circle & the robots with dimensionals. Added WOS to some parts of the robots.
TFL!

Oh Liz, this is so delightful that I chuckled out loud! You have created a wonderful woodland scene here, and you are correct, I would not be expecting these two- ever! I love your sparkly Saturn and these oh-so wonderful robots! You really rocked this particular challenge Liz with this super fun card! ~Karen.

Lovely rainbow sunset in your woodland scene with these two unusual characters popping out on their woodland walk! As they seem to be waving at Saturn, I'm wonder if that is their homeland?!
