Say What? - Use a Sentiment for Let's Craft and Create Challenge on the 5th of February, 2023

 

For this month's challenge at Let's Craft and Create Challenge Blog we have the optional theme of

Say What? - Use a Sentiment

Here is my card:

I have stamped Decorating Tree Marci from La-La Land Crafts on to X-Press It Blending card using Tuxedo Black Memento ink. I have then coloured her with Copic inks as follows:

• skin - E000, E00, E11, E13, R20
• hair - E40, E41, E43, E44, E89
• red - R22, R24, R46, R89
• brown - E40, E41, E43, E44
• grey - N1, N3, N5, N7
• blue/green - BG11, BG13, BG18
• green - YG21, YG03, YG25, YG17, YG67

I have used a white gel pen for the dots and strips and then fussy cut her.

I have then die cut two Christmas Trees from Christmas Tree with Trimmings die by La-La Land Crafts - one out of silver and one out of green cardstock, then I also embossed the green one so that the trimmings could be added!

I adhered the silver tree to a Kraft square card from Envelope Solutions and then the embossed green tree on top. Marci is popped up with foam tape and the sentiment is the one that comes with Decorating Tree Marci, stamped in Nautical Blue Memento ink.

Here is a close-up photo of Marci before fussy-cutting:

I would like to enter this card into a few challenges:
