Hi everyone! I recently found out there was a scrapbook store within an hour of my home, so I couldn’t wait to go and explore. Unfortunately, they are only open on Fridays and Saturdays, which limited when I could visit. This weekend, however, we could go, so Al and I piled into the car and off we went! It was a bit of a double-edged sword, though, as the shop is closing at the end of the month. The owner tells me she’s planning to take the shop on the road, so hopefully she ends up in my area in the new year. As she’s closing, she had quite a lot of older stock heavily reduced, so I did pick up a few bargains. I mean, I HAD to, right?! One of my finds was the Tim Holtz Mixed Media Stamps Stencil Set – Snarky Cat. I’d never seen it before. Don’t ask me why?! You know I love his Crazy Dogs set and use it all the time, so I couldn’t resist playing with this new set and creating something similar for my first card.
The card came together fairly easily. I picked out some patterned paper (Vicki Boutin’s Bold & Bright), and that set the colour palette. I stamped all the pieces, coloured them with Copic Markers and then fussy-cut them out. The Lawn Fawn Postage Rectangle Stackables die was perfect for my backdrop. I then used the stencil that came with the set and softly added some orange ink to the background. Next, I stamped the sentiment (don’t you love the snark?!) and then assembled everything.
Here’s the card…
I have to say, I love this card and cannot wait to make some more versions.
Hope you have a wonderful day! Thanks so much for stopping by!
