The following images were used on this card Stones & Grass Cube, Key Keeper, Daisy Daisy, Welcome Door and Abstract Foliage. I started of by stamping a set of stones, before masking them to over stamp the Key Keeper and then the Welcome Door before filling in with the other stamps. The 18 was created using the numbers from Sizzix Vintage Marketplace as a mask and inking the back wall area with Distress Ink. Everything has then been coloured with Prismacolor Pencils. I've added some Stickles to the 18, the centre of the daisies and the Key Keeper's body. To give a little shine and dimension I've added Glossy Accents to the heart on the door, key, eyes and horns.
The sentiment has been handwritten (like you couldn't have guessed!!) and says "You've got the key to the door.." and on the inside of the card "...don't lose it!!!"
I hope that you'll come and join the challenge as there is a fantastic prize on offer of $30 to spend on Stampotique stamps. It's worth noting that our rules have changed recently and whilst we'd be thrilled if you used a Stampotique stamp, it's no longer a requirement. I can't wait to see what you all make.
Thanks for stopping by today.

ReplyDeleteWowzers Claire - how clever are you!!! All that masking is just PERFECT - fantastic card!!!! Polly x
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you are testing the ol' brain cells, Pinky. This looks like a steam rollered version of one of your stepper cards but, as you say, so much more planning ahead is needed. Great card. Loving those little stone/pebble bundles and also how you use Altered Foliage so well. x
ReplyDeleteMy language would have been blue, sorting out the order of what goes when & where. Isn't it strange how one dimensional cards can be trickier than the layered ones? x
ReplyDeleteClever work here and a lot of patience needed
