For today’s card I created a fun 4th of July card that would be perfect for a Summer Party Invite. I’m using the Patriotic Owl stamp from Whipper Snapper Designs and some Patriotic Picnic Papers from Doodlebug Designs.
I started out by stamping the Owl image onto some Neenah Solar White card stock and then I colored it in with Copics. I die cut the panel using the Wonky Stitched Rectangle Die set from My Favorite Things. Then I stamped the sentiment from the Altenew Super Script set using some VersaFine Black ink and my Mini Misti Tool. I die cut two piece of the pattern paper using the same die.
I created a top folding White card base and I adhered the Pattern Papers tilted so they would stick out behind the image panel. Then I adhered the image panel with some Foam and my ATG. For a bit of Sparkle I added some Clear Wink of Stella to parts of the image and some Sparkling Clear Mixed Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.
Check out the video below for more details on how I created these cards.
I used the following Copics to color the images:
YG21, YG03, YG17, E53, E55. E57, E59, R22, R24, R27, Y02. Y15, Y17, Y38, C3, C1, C00 & 0 Colorless Blender.
