Hi everyone! Today I am super excited to be part of a fun blog hop to celebrate the Spellbinders March 2020 Club Kits! You may have seen the card I made with the Stamp of the Month Kit, and today I am here to bring you even more inspiration!
I will give you more details about the hop and the giveaways at the end of this post, but for now let’s have a look at today’s card
IMAGES
I started by stamping and coloring the cat and the dog in the Spellbinders/FSJ Baby Farm Animals stamp set. This is not part of any subscription and can be purchased on the Spellbinders store at any time. I personally find it really adorable! For the coloring, as in most of the cases, I used my Spectrum Noir Illustrator Markers.
BACKGROUND
For my card today I went for a more clean and simple look, compared to my usual style. I die cut some Cool Pool cardstock with the Circle Around dies and I did some tone on tone ink blending. I used Cool Pool ink, some blending brushes and the Cane Weave Stencil.
I also die cut some white cardstock using the Lucky Clouds dies.
SENTIMENT AND FINISHING TOUCHES
For the greeting on my card I used stamps in the Spellbinders/FSJ Stamp of the Month Kit. I first stamped the word Love with Watermelon Fusion ink on a white cardstock banner. I then glued it to a larger banner that had I cut out of some Watemelon Fusion Cardstock (all matchy-matchy!).
For the second part of the greeting I stamped the sentence is all you need on a second banner, this time cut out of some Pineapple Smoothie cardstock.
I adhered everything to a top folding A2 card base, raising the focal panel over some foam tape. I finished off the card with some white enamel accents scattered around the images.
