Time for another Take Two with Lindsey, Trudee and Julia! Our challenge was to use any new Stampin’ Up set and Stampin’ Up patterned paper. I decided to go really simple with this one, but I did try to add an extra bit of detail.
After stamping the little hedgehog, I used a Close to Cocoa marker to trace (with the brush tip) each little pair of lines on his body. Then I filled in a bit with a Creamy Caramel marker, leaving a little of the vanilla paper showing. His face is Caramel as well, and the butterfly is Pretty in Pink with a Barely Banana body.
I stamped him a second time and colored and cut out the ear and butterfly. The ear is popped up on a rolled glue dot with the one end squished down to his face so the back of his ear only pops up. I did the same thing with the butterfly, placing a rolled glue dot under its wings, then a dot of glue under its body. I used my scissors to push his body to the paper so that only his wings are elevated. Then I used a gray Copic to add a bit of shadow.
I used a super-simple layout, added some faux stitching and scalloped ribbon.
Be sure to check out Lindsey, Trudee and Julia‘s blogs to see their creations! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
