Luka with Suitcase for Love to Craft Challenge #80 for May/June 2024

It has been another packed few months and I am very late posting this, but for challenge #80 for May/June 2024 of the Love to Craft Challenge Blog I wanted to showcase a card that I made from a workshop by La-La Land Crafts.

Here is my card for this month:

This card uses stamps, dies and papers from La-La Land Crafts and I followed Martha's video in the Cardmaking & Colouring Workshop from April 2022 to both colour Luka with suitcase and put the card together. For this particular workshop, we received everything already die cut and ready in labelled bags - it was awesome!! :) 

Anyway, the products are:

• Luka with Suitcase Rubber Stamp - for both the image and sentiment
• Sun Smiles Die
• Notebook Pages Die
• Left Pocket Die
• Right Pocket Die
• Curved Pocket Die
• Small Photo Die
• Rounded Stitched Rectangles Die
• Life Documented Paper Pack

Luka was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and coloured with the following Copics: 

• Skin/shoes - E000, E00, E11, E13, R20
• Hair - E40, E41, E43, E44
• Suitcase/Grey - N0, N2, N4, N6
• Orange - YR12, YR15, YR16, YR18
• Blue - B93, B95, B97, B99
• Brown - E11, E13, E15, E18
• Aqua - BG11, BG13, BG15, BG18

I finished off the details with a white gel pen, then fussy cut him.

Here is a photo of Luka:

The notebook page has been "aged" with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide ink. Here are some photos of the inside of the trifold card:

I was going to try and make my own version for a Christmas card and I may still do that, but this month I ran out of time with travelling for work and going away for a week holiday camping!
