This card also owes it's basic composition to Carole Richardson's fabulous card! I love how she layered backgrounds and textures. This is my first time out stamping Always Artichoke on Kraft paper and it is to die for!
The gnome is watercolored and cut out, then adhered to the background with dimensionals. The "shadow" behind the Gnome is sponged in Close to Cocoa and highlighted with gold PearlEx.

Beautiful rich colors. I'll have to try that artichoke on the Kraft. TFS

Love it. Bought this set at my DH's request (has a book...he's a librarian...and he kind of likes gnomes to boot), but wasn't sure what to do with it - until now! I'm so going to CASE it...shamelessly.
best,
