Friend


Hello crafting friends, happy Thursday!

My first crafty purchase of 2015. A cute little foxy stamp set which I used to make this card with the colour choice at Colour Me.  Also linking up to CAS-ology and Less Is More which both have the theme of Friend.

The little fox was stamped in black Archival, coloured with distress ink and wet brush and the colour intensified with a colouring pencil, the grass was inked with an SU! marker and the sun is a diecut inked with SU! ink.

I have to admit I was in two minds about whether to leave the frame white but then decided to add some colour with a stencil and duster brush for some extra "sunshine". 

Thank you for popping by today, have a great evening! xx

Oh, that is just the cutest cozy little scene. I am wondering who makes that fox stamp? I think I need it. Great call to stripe the frame. It really brightens and highlights your focal point. Thanks so much for playing along at CASology this week.
