Have a good read
This is a card for one of my grandsons.
The images are from another set of Brambly Hedge stamps from Crafter's Companion, this time from their new collection 'The High Hills'. I have coloured them using Promarkers with a little from a gold gel pen on the book spines. The mouse image was cut out using a Spellbinders die and matted and layered onto a black circular mirri card and a silvery gold scalloped mirri card, both having been cut out using a Spellbinders die. The set of books was hand cut.
The window pane backing paper was from something I printed off about a year ago and had partly used. This I matted and layered onto silver mirri card, black mirri card and white card. I then attached a strip of black mirri card horizontally across the middle.
The sentiment was stamped using a stamp from the same set and was matted onto black mirri card which had been cut out using another Spellbinders die.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Lacy Sunshine - include a window
Nutcrafter's - B is for books
Crafty Catz - one for the boys
The Squirrel and the Fox - for a male
Digi Designs - all about animals
Sweet Pea Stampers - use lots of layers
Craft Room - something old (window pane paper) and something new (stamp)
Addicted to Stamps and More - make your mark
Simon Says Stamp Monday - stamp
Creative Fingers - anything goes
