Birthday Mole

 

DT Annalisa here today! Spring has finally sprung in my area, so I am sharing a fun gardening scene I created using the new I Really Dig You stamp set. I paired this with a new die and stencil as well. I love to garden so Spring is one of my favourite seasons (despite my allergies!), I love watching everything come to life. 

I ink-blended an A2 card base using Tea Die and Antique Linen Distress Oxide using my Beautiful Rainbow Blender Brushes over the I Really Dig You Background Stencil. I used the leftover ink on the brush to lightly blend over the white areas left behind. I added Vintage Photo Distress Oxide splatter with water and a watercolour brush. I added white splatter with a paintbrush, water and Copic opaque white.

I used the Wonky Windows Cover Die to cut white cardstock that I ink-blended with Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron over a grass stencil and added splatter using Rustic Wilderness and Copic opaque white. 

I stamped and die-cut the images from I Really Dig You (coordinating dies), Queen For the Day (coordinating dies), and Eggstra Special Birthday (coordinating dies); I coloured them with my Copics and added white gel pen accents with a Gelly Roll Pen. I also stamped and die-cut the sentiments.

I added double-sided foam tape to the back of the grassy panel and placed it on top of the ink-blended card base. I used liquid glue to adhere all the die-cut elements to the card. I love how it turned out and this garden scene makes me happy.
