My first card features the set’s fireplace image. I colored the fireplace with Copic markers and cut it out. It’s set on an elegant “wallpaper” background made from some Cosmo Cricket Everafter designer paper.
To make the scene more homey, I added some blazing logs to the fireplace, complete with sparkly flames courtesy of a Spica pen, and some classic books set along the top of the mantel.
I added one of the Outdoor sentiments to the top of the card. A button with some taffeta ribbon knotted through it is a simple accent for the sentiment.
Materials Used:
DoodleFactory Boudoir stamp set, Outdoor Sentiments (Starving Artistamps); white cardstock (Gina K Designs); Tuxedo Black ink (Memento); markers, orange Spica pen (Copic); Soft Sky and Basic Gray cardstock, Basic Gray taffeta ribbon (Stampin’ Up!); designer paper (Cosmo Cricket-Everafter line); Smokey Shadow ink, button (Papertrey Ink)
This card features a combination of paper piecing and coloring. The set’s bench image was stamped on white cardstock. I colored the base with Copic markers, then paper pieced the cushion using some Basic Grey Archaic paper. I colored the bolster with Copic markers before attaching it to the bench.
The setting for the bench is made by combining more of the Archaic papers. I used a striped pattern as a wall covering and one of the distressed solids as a rug. I added a decorative edged scalloped strip at the top of the card and stitched some pleated satin ribbon along the top edge for decoration. The “you might want to sit down for this” sentiment runs along the bottom of the image panel with a single silver brad as an accent.
