This is another card that was born our of my mission to create more sympathy cards. I pulled out one of my favorite current images, from the Life's Adventure hostess stamp set, and paired it with some scraps from a retired DSP pack called Urban Garden. I initially wanted to color my image using Stampin' Blendabilities Markers, but I didn't like how the fox (which I had colored in orange shades) looked paired with the DSP, so I switched gears and colored the image with blending pens on watercolor paper using inks.
You like the little rain drops? They were created with the Cupcake punch, using what is supposed to be the flame! I used an adhesive sheet on the back of the Silver glimmer paper BEFORE punching so that my punched pieces already had adhesive on the back. That made my life much simpler when came time to glue the raindrops on the image. The image was die-cut using the Deco Labels Collections Framelits Dies, and since the sentiment was not fitting inside the Framelits I wanted to use, I stamped it again separately in VersaMark on a scrap of cardstock and embossed it with White Stampin' Emboss Powder.
The back piece was punched using the new Ornate Tag Topper Punch, and I used the Dotty Angles stamp set to add polka dots to the right edge.
