When you're done hopping be sure to join us for a fun day of challenges over in our Splitcoaststampers forum. We're giving away some fun prizes, too, so don't miss it! We look forward to seeing your fabulous Fall creations!
My next card uses the sweet Sunny Squirrel stamp set - isn't she sweet holding that large sunflower? Once again, I used Neenah cream card stock and copics to color the image - although you can see that I paper pieced the sunflower. After I finished colored Sunny, I went over his tail and belly with a white colored pencil a bit to add some texture and shading. That patterned paper in the background is a bit too busy for my liking right now as I look at it on the computer screen, but in person it's not quite as 'loud' as it looks! lol!
Next up on the hop today is the amazingly talented Cathy!
I hope you get a chance to spend some time checking out the Virtual Stamp Day challenges that Korin and the other designers have been working.on for us today. It's always fun to stamp with a theme/challenge in mind, I think!
Happy Hopping and stamping!
Jessica
