TMS 546 - Tuesday Morning Sketches

Hello, everybody!  We have a new sketch for you this week at Tuesday Morning Sketches!  I hope you will be inspired to join our challenge!  I made a nature-inspired birthday card intended for a man.


I stamped the deer (STAMPlorations Woodland Friends), coloured it with markers, and fussy-cut so I could pop it up on foam tape.  Behind the deer, I used a number of dies to make a little nature scene on ivory vellum (Artist's Vision) using patterned paper (my old stash).  Dies used were STAMPlorations Stitched Spring Landscape, STAMPlorations Stitched Winter Landscape, and Gina Marie Designs Stitched Rectangles.  I stamped a sentiment (Your Next Stamp Autumn Animals) on the vellum in StazOn Timber Brown.  

I created the tree background on kraft cardstock by inking Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide through Simon Says Stamp Mod Trees Stencil.  I adhered the stencilled panel to a striped patterned paper (my old stash), adhered the vellum panel onto the kraft, and added a strip of glitter washi tape, along with a sentiment from TLC Creations, punched with a circle punch (Recollections) and popped up on foam tape.

Here's our Sketch 546, designed by Debbie. I'm looking forward to seeing what you make!

To answer the question you left on my blog post, I just inked around the edges of the die cut with distress ink.

Great take on the sketch and I love the deer scene! And its a nice change to see a deer card that isn't a snow scene! I think many of us have had enough snow. This makes me want to go out in the woods! Actually, people and this whole virus thing makes me want to go in the woods too!!! LOL Take care, Kitty! Be smart, be safe, and be crafty!
