I made this card for www.artfullyila.blogspot.com sketch challenge. I just love Ila's stuff and when I found out she was having a sketch challenge I had to join in.
I used some of my favorite Cosmos Cricket papers on a bold orange, brown and red Bazzill card stock. I stamped the cat tails first and colored then on another piece of paper I stamped this adorable generous little guy. They are both colored in with Copic Markers. The "ground" is stamped with my Stampin Up Mini dot stamp with 5 or 6 different colors. I was going for muddy grass... hmmmm. I high lighted with my white gel pen and the frog with a Spica Glitter pen. Oh and the cat tails have cinnamon stickles on them...just got that color and had to use it! Stitched all the edges placed it all together added the ribbon and the large red brads. Then instead of a flower in the corner I used two of my Fiskar Heart Squeeze punches and layered them, I just thought hearts fit the sentiment so well. Just about everything is pop dotted off the card, hope you can see it all!
Thanks for looking! www.donkeysmiles.blogspot.com
