To begin, I stamped all the images with Black Licorice Hybrid Ink on smooth white cardstock and colored them with Copic Markers. I cut them out with their coordinating dies. Please Note: I stamped the apples to the trees and the sign before coloring. I also used a white Gelly Roll Pen to add accents here and there.
I love creating scenes with dimension, and MFT came out with the perfect dies this month for making this tunnel card. To create my panels, I die-cut 4 Bristol cardstocks using the largest die from A2 Rectangle Stax Set 1 Die-namics. Then, I used the 3 smaller rectangle die that I gathered together to die-cut three of those rectangles as shown in the picture above. I used the rectangles from A2 Rectangle Stax Set 1 and 2 Die-namics. Here are the sizes: 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 (set 1), 3 3/8 x 4 5/8 (set 2) , 2 7/8 x 4 1/8 (set 1), 2 3/16 x 3 7/16 (set 2)
Using the Grassy Hills Die-namics, I die-cut four Bristol cardstocks to the width of 5 3/8. The height of the grass went from taller in the back to shorter towards the front. I inked the card panels with Salty Ocean and Peacock Feathers Distress Oxides, and inked the grass with Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron Distress Inks. I flicked some water to add texture to both. I then stamped the sentiment using black Versafine ink on the top panel.
This tunnel card design can be used with lots of MFT stamp sets to make fun scenes with dimensions. I know I'll be making more of these; I just love the way they look! I hope I have inspired you to give it a try!
That's it for today. I hope you enjoyed my post. Thank you to the MFT team for having me as a guest designer this month!
