Hi Crafty Friends! Summer means camping for so many, so I couldn’t resist creating another card using the Heffy Doodle Camping Critters Stamp Set and Dies. I paired these cute images with the EZ Light from Pear Blossom Press. If you are joining me from the Pear Blossom Press Blog, Welcome!
ALL SUPPLIES ARE LISTED BELOW!
First, I made my background panel. I die cut a piece of white cardstock with the Deckled Paper Hugs Die Set. I love this frame set. I then used the Green Fields Stencil to stencil my grass with a Large Blending Brush and Grass Skirt Dye Ink from Catherine Pooler. I removed the stencil and ink blended my night sky. I used another Large Blending Brush with Catherine Pooler’s Suede Shoes and Juniper Mist Dye Ink. I took the blues down into the grass to darken it and have the grass blend with the night sky better.
Using an alcohol friendly black ink, I stamped a few images from the Camping Critters Stamp Set. I colored the tent, lantern and raccoon with Olo Markers. Please see below for colors used. I then die cut these images with the Camping Critters Die Set.
Next, I heat embossed using white embossing powder my sentiment from the Camping Critters Stamp Set and “push here” from the PB Press Stamp and Die Bundle on the front of my background panel. Make sure to use plenty of anti static powder over the ink blended area. I adhered my raccoon, tent and lantern in place.
I used an 1/8th hole punch to put a hole in the lantern flame and one of both sides of the heat embossed sentiment. I then turned my panel over and secured my EZ Light battery pack in place so the on/off button was directly under the “push here”. I secured my lights in place using pieces of tape then added World’s Greatest Foam Tape around the battery pack to keep it in place as well as over the back of the panel.
I adhered the background panel to the front of a heavy weight card base. Lastly, I punched holes in two star embellishments with a 1/8th hole punch and adhered those over the holes by the sentiment. To finish I filled the sky with more stars of varying sizes.
I love a fun scene card. This one is pretty simple, but I wanted the lights to be the highlight of this card. Thank you for stopping by and I will see you next time!
Happy crafting! April
