My Favorite Things October Release Countdown | Day 2

Hello and welcome to day 2 of the My Favorite Things October release countdown. Today I have a couple of projects to share using products from the new release - it's another awesome day of products to share! :)

For my first card I used the new Handwritten Holiday stamp set (the sentiments in this set are gorgeous!) and I created a winter night scene to add the sentiment to. 


I first stamped the deer image from the new Dashing Deer stamp set onto a panel of white card stock and then I built the scene around him using Copic markers. I have been taking a lot of online classes to improve my Copic colouring skills so I used what I've learned so far to create the night backdrop.

I created the moon first and then added the night sky around it. I then added trees and the snow detail on the ground and completed the scene by colouring in the deer and adding all of the snow detail with a white gel pen. 


Once I had the scene complete, I added the sentiment right over the moon area using black ink and my Mini Misti stamping tool to ensure that I got a really bold, dark sentiment.

For my second project I used the new Cross-Stitch Tag die to create a few hand stitched tags and a card that looks like it was stitched but was actually done with pencil crayons.


These tags and card are a part of the free online release class that we offer each month so stay tuned to that tomorrow night for a full video and PDF download sharing how to create them. :)

Thank you so much for joining me for day 2 of the October release countdown. See you tomorrow for more countdown fun! :)
