I'm just popping in with a card made for a few challenges. We are in the middle of what is hopefully only a 7-day lockdown here in New Zealand and that means I get a bit more time to stamp. I made this card for the challenges at Tic-Tac-Toe (Alpha Dies/Red/Apple), the sketch at Just Add Ink and the colours from Color Throwdown.
I stamped and coloured up this crate of apples by Power Poppy then fussy-cut it out. I took a white card base and embossed it with the Subtle embossing folder before adding a strip of woodgrain patterned paper and a thinner strip of yellow polka dot paper.
The sentiment was die-cut three times and stacked together (a fiddly job, trust me!) I then used added it to the card base. I finished by adding foam tape behind the apples before adhering to the card base. Originally I stamped the image in London Fog ink for more of a no-line look but after colouring it, I ended up over-stamping with Versafine Onyx Black because I guess I'm one of those people who likes black outlines. Luckily I hadn't removed the stamp from my Misti so it all lined up perfectly.
Thanks for visiting!
