My Favorite Things November Release Countdown | Day 3

Hello and welcome back to the My Favorite Things November release countdown. For my card today I decided to create another Copic winter scene using the new Friends in the Forest stamp set. Lately, I've been wanting to use my Copic markers to practice scenes and different backgrounds with my stamped images.

Today's card is based off a winter scene I learned in Sandy Allnock's Winter Wonderland class - this is a great class to get Copic confidence if you lack it like I was LOL! :) 


I stamped my deer and fox image first, and then I created the scene around them. And the images I stamped were masking gone wrong LOL! I didn't realize until I had already coloured the whole scene and started to colour the animals that I didn't stamp the fox low enough, so it looks like his behind is floating in space haha!

I also made my pine tree a lot bigger than I intended and my other tree just looks.... odd. :) But I finished the card, and I love it regardless. ;)


I decided to make my deer Rudolph and gave him a red nose, and then I stamped a sentiment from the Dashing Deer stamp set onto a sentiment banner and added it to the bottom of the card.

Make sure to head over to the MFT blog to see the rest of the products being revealed today and to see more ideas from the design team using the new stamps and dies. The November release will be available on November 7th at 9pm EST!
 
See you tomorrow for more countdown fun! :)

I was so awed by your scene that I didn't notice the floating fox until you mentioned it! This is so beautiful.

Ridiculously, it LOOKS like Sandy. You did a phenomenal job. I love the vanishing point of the trail. It's all just beautiful.

The tree is not too big & I looked & looked at the fox's behind before I saw what you were talking about. Your card is a work of art!!!! The snowy path & bank, the sun, the dusky trees, everything is amazing!!!
I sniped a copy of your card to practice doing the path. I can't believe all the softness was created with Copics. BEAUTIFUL!
