August Birthday Bash #2 - Stampin' Up! Stylish Sketches

Hello!

I am back for day 2 of my August #birthdaycardbash challenge. I used some retired Stampin' Up! products for today's card.

I started by die cutting a white rectangle using the retired My Favorite Things Inside and Out Stitched Rectangle STAX dies and my Sizzix Big Shot and magic mat. I then used an acrylic block and Altenew Obsidian Pigment Ink to stamp the fox from the Stampin' Up! Stylish Sketches stamp set. The sentiment was stamped from the Stampin' Up! Wildlife Wonder set.

I let the ink dry for a few minutes and then roughly colored the fox with Prismacolor colored pencils. I was trying to make my coloring look sketchy like the lines of the stamp set. Specific colors:

• Pumpkin Orange

• Mineral Orange

• Yellowed Orange

• Moss Green

I then found a piece of black and white patterned paper from my stash and glued it to a white A2 card base using Art Glitter Glue. I centered the fox panel on it and glued it flat too.

That's it! I hope you enjoyed the card and are inspired to create.

I also want to invite you to join me in my cardmaking challenge over on my Facebook page. See the pinned post at the top of the page for details.

Happy crafting!
