Relax... take it easy!

Hi everyone, DT Emma here sharing how I made this weeks card! Can we just start with how cute are these sloths! Adorable. They totally deserve to be shown off in a sleepy, relaxing card. 

I started off this card by cutting a piece of the white alcohol ink friendly cardstock to 4.25 inch by 5.5 inch. I then used a circle die cut piece of card to ink blend the sky background using Distress oxide colours in Chipped Sapphire, Blueprint Sketch and Tumbled Glass. I then used a mixed of Distress oxide inks in Picket Fence and Lost Shadow to create some shadow effects on the moon. 

I die cut and coloured the images I wanted from the Be Slothy stamp set and the Home Sweet Home stamp set, using the following copic colours:

Leaves: YG21, YG23, YG25, YG05, YG09 and YG17

Sloths: W00, W1, W3 and W5

Branches: E23, E25 and E27

Armchair: R89, R29 and R27

Candle and holder: E23, T0, TR04 and Y35

Blanket: V12 and V15

Mug: B97, B45 and B41

I then cut a quarter inch from either side of the long edge of the background piece so that I can create a sentiment edge on my cardbase. I took at 4.25inch by 5.5 inch card base and secured it in my misti and using the small sentiments from the Be Slothy stamp set I stamped out the words "Be Slothy", "take it easy", "let's hang out", "zzzz" and "Relax" on both sides using black archival ink. 

Once I had those edges stamped I adhered my background piece to it and then adhered my coloured images to create the scene.
