Miss Ink Stamps – For My Friend…

I just can’t resist this fabulous pup from Miss Ink Stamps in the Slim’s Whims stamp set. He’s too fun to color and the sentiments crack me up! So I’m back again today with another card I made featuring him.

I stamped Slim and colored him up with my copic markers. Then I used the scan-n-cut to cut him out. I chose a sentiment and trimmed it into a strip, then switched gears to stencil my background.

I wanted to play off the army green that I used for his glasses so I chose a dark orangey-red cardstock and my scallop stencil from the Miss Ink Stamps Basics Bundle. I used an ink from my stash similar to the cardstock for a tone-on-tone look. Once the inking was done I used liquid glue to adhere it to a white card base. Next, I die cut a piece of kraft cardstock with a Trinity Stamps Embossed Edge rectangle die and then took a die 2 sizes down and cut the center out creating a frame.

I added foam strips to the back of the frame and popped it in place. Then I added foam tape to the back of Slim and the sentiment strip and placed them on the card front too.

To finish things off I glued down a scattering of Trinity Stamps gold satin baubles around the design. I love how these colors play off of each other. Great for a masculine card if you needed one!
