This is my submission to Taylor's Sketch Challenge 77. I've been dying to use this stamp set by Whipper Snapper and as soon as I saw this sketch, I thought of this paper and the little chicken in the boat.
I started with a square card base in the new SU Soft Suede. I added the patterned paper from Cosmo Cricket's Mr. Campy collection and used my corner punch on the bottom edge to get a bigger scalloped border. I matted this with a matching plaid piece from the same collection and then stitched around the edges. Next, I stamped my little "fisherchick" onto some SU Very Vanilla and colored with my Copics. I cut him out with my circle Nesties and matted him with a scalloped Nestie cut from the SU Soft Suede. I stamped the fish onto a scrap piece of CS, then colored and cut him out and used some dimensionals behind him. I paper pieced the note so it would stand out more too! The sentiment is from this same stamp set and I punched it out with my SU large oval punch and matted it with dimensionals on the SU Soft Suede punched with the SU Scalloped Oval. Last, I added a couple of buttons and twill tape to finish it off! There you have it! Leave me a comment below and have a GREAT Monday!
Supplies:
Rubber Stamp - Whipper Snapper; CS - SU Very Vanilla, Soft Suede; DP - Cosmo Cricket; Punches - SU Large Oval, SU Scalloped Oval, EK Success Corner Rounder, Nesties; Copics; Buttons; Twill Tape
