Guest Designer Jess shares her super cute car critters card!

Hello Teatimers! I'm Jess

McAfee and I'm so excited to be showcasing new goodies from the May Release. Pour a cuppa, put on your riding scarf and join

me while we hit the road with Car

Critters.

I started by die-cutting an A2-sized rectangle with Bristol Smooth Paper and

opening up my beautiful new

Pack of Two Brush Set. I wanted a vibrant background and decided on this Oxide Ink combo:

-Salvaged Patina

-Squeezed Lemonade

-Kitsch Flamingo 

-Wilted Violet

Using the new Chic

Chevron Stencil, I finished the background by carefully applying pressure with each new colour. Once I was happy with the blend,

it's time for my favourite part: lifting the stencil to reveal the beautiful design. 

Next, I stamped and coloured the main images from Car

Critters using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and Spectrum Noir TriBlend markers. 

For the sentiments, I used the Brighter

Days Sentiment Cards and grounded the scene with a grass strip and road from the Hillside

Slimline Scene Die Set. To finish off the card front, I added coordinating sequins, Diamond Stickles and Glossy Accents. 

P.S I had noticed after the fact that I coloured in the wheels grey, oops! Did

you notice? I figured the recipient wouldn't mind and would be excited to find a handmade card in their mailbox.

It's been a blast hanging out today!

I can't wait to be back next week to share another card.

Crafty Hugs,

Jess McAfee
