Hello everyone! I just recently discovered the joys of a company called SugarPea Designs. I placed my first order from their last new release and received this set, Timber
My husband's birthday is coming up and I knew that I wanted to make him a special card with this set! And, bonus! SugarPea is celebrating their 2nd birthday and asking their fans to link up with a special project to help celebrate!
As you can see, I did a little masking on the trees to create the little cluster behind my woodsman. I copic colored the images and distressed the grass and sky with Mowed Lawn and Tumbled Glass. My woodgrain background was created using the Stampin Up woodgrain stamp and then I tea dyed distressed the edges. I added 1 tiny metal heart to finish it off..I didn't want to take away from my scene, so I kept it really clean.
Oh! I also wanted to mention...I used the "Happy Birthday" from a SSS stamp and then added the "Handsome" which was part of a sentiment that came in his set, "Hello Handsome". I love making my own sentiments this way, when I just don't have exactly what I need.
Thank you for visiting, I hope you'll leave me a comment, I love hearing from you!

ReplyDeleteAaah, AJ, what amazing coloring you do! It's always so hard for me to believe that your cards aren't store-bought. There is never a hair out of place and the blending and brightness you achieve are exquisite! This card is a hoot! I love all the elements down to the woodgrain card panel and your sediment mix is perfect! I'll bet he loved it, especially since you called him handsome and gave him your heart!!
