Woodland Friend

by Andrea Shell on Oct 24 2024
Hi, there! It's Andrea here to share a woodland, fall-inspired card featuring products from Picket Fence Studios. The inspiration for this card came from the fun Vintage Heart stamp from the October release. I paired it with the new Friend Stacked Word Dies and one of the cute foxes from the Layered Fauna: Larger Playful Fox Dies. My idea was to have the fox in place of the "i" in friend; I think it's fun when animals or objects are used to represent a letter. I began by stamping the Vintage Heart stamp with beige ink onto white cardstock. To add the brown ink to the bark, I applied darker ink to the stamp with a Neutral Pint-sized Paper Pouncer before stamping. I diecut the heart with the coordinating dies. For my background, I blended white cardstock with green ink and added splatters of Opaque Gold Paper Splatter. Once the drops were dry, I trimmed down the panel and adhered it to a white cardbase. I popped up the heart with foam squares. I diecut the Friend Stacked Word Dies three times from white cardstock and once from brown. After trimming the "i" from the diecuts, I stacked the brown layer on top of two white layers and offset the third white diecut to create a highlight. I adhered the layered diecut to my card and attached the fox (leftover from a previous project and colored with Copics) from the Layered Fauna: Larger Playful Fox Dies with foam. I diecut some leaves from metallic cardstock with the Layered Flora: Fall Foliage Dies and glued them to the heart, along with a few gold pearls. The sub-sentiment is from the Vintage Heart stamp and was attached with two layers of foam. Thanks for stopping by! *Affiliate links used at no cost to you.
