I felt a little weird making this card yesterday. It was 71 fun-lovin’ degrees here, sunny and very windy. Last night there were thunderstorms predicted. Um, it’s February, right? Everyone will have colds. Actually, I already do. I’m sniffly, sneezy, sore throat, lovely really (not).
Today’s WT Challenge at SCS is to use fabric. I don’t have stashes of fabric lying around, but I did have a strip of brown canvas. I used it here in place of ribbon or a strip of cardstock.
Stay Warm
I tried to follow this week’s sketch challenge, but my fabric strip is over the striped panel instead of under so I’m guessing this doesn’t qualify. (Always the rebel.) 🙂
I popped up part of Flopsey’s scarf and also the mittens and cup. I used a black 3-d gel pen on Flopsey’s eyes and a clear one on the mug.
I didn’t want Flopsey to be quite so dark, but I still have three empty brown Copics. I have refills coming, but I think they’re traveling here from far, far away roped to the back of a donkey.
The sentiment is clear embossed so it would stand out better on the patterned paper.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great day!
