Best Buddies

Hello Friends, I'm sharing a card using one of the sweetest stamp sets from the new Whimsy Stamps release - Best Buddies, perfect for cards for little lads and their doggies.

I coloured the image with Copic markers:

Hair: E29, 25, 50
Shirt: C3, 1, 0, 00
Jeans: B97, 95, 93, 91
Doggie: E35, 51, 50

I created the sky using a mask and Tumbled Glass distress ink.

 I kept it simple with a banner layer and some twine and Nuvo Crystal Drops to finish the card off.  I drop the Nuvo Drops onto freezer paper and leave overnight to dry then adhere them to the card with some liquid glue.  I find they are way more dimensional and even shaped doing them this way as opposed to straight from the bottle on to the card.

 

A Boy's Best Friend

Hello, Whimsy fans!  It's Andrea with you today sharing a sweet card featuring the new Best Buddies stamp set.  If you are a dog lover or know someoneone who is, you NEED this set!  I tell you, these images and sentiments just make my heart melt.

I stamped that sweet image from Best Buddies with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it with my Copics (I will list the colors at the end of this post).  With the Notched Rectangles Die Set, I die-cut my image and a white frame and adhered the two together.  I stamped "Mwah!" with Versafine Onyx Black before working on the rest of my card.

I trimmed down some plaid paper to a 5 1/2" square and adhered it to a 5 3/4" white cardbase.  I attached a strip of polka dot paper to my card and added my matted image with foam tape.

I die-cut the Friend Word and Shadow Die Set from three colors of cardstock and layered the pieces together before attaching the sentiment to my card.  I white heat-embossed a sentiment from Best Buddies onto navy cardstock and, using the partial die-cutting technique, die-cut the strip with the Quick Strips Die Set.  I adhered the strip to my card with foam tape and finished with a scattering of enamel dots.

Thanks for stopping by!
