Hello everyone! I'm back with another Double D challenge today, playing along with Diane's theme: Baa-Cluck-Moo-Neigh-Oink-Quack (Any or All). I mean, really, how fun is that theme? I love it! Check out the mood board:
My card has a baa, an oink, and a couple of quacks. Also a woof, a squeak, a chirp, and that goofy sound a goat makes when it waggles its tongue at you. I used an old woodblock Art Impressions stamp which I don't think has a name on it, but I'm going to call it Farm Animals. I colored with Copics, fussy cut, and used lots of dies, a brick wall stencil, and a bit of designer paper to make a house front and window.
See how the window appears to be lifted open. Just some cutting and layering of the die at work there. I wonder what's so interesting inside? This is a lucky pig to have such good friends helping him out.
The stamp is a two part affair -- one for the back and one for the front -- so you see the following when you open the card:
You can reverse and put the face on the front of the card and the other inside, but after going to all this trouble I definitely wanted most of it on the front. I don't know if Art Impressions still makes these front and back stamps.
A random prize winner gets the following very fun stamp:
What a deal! The team also votes for creative favorites. Be sure to visit the Double D blog and check out how much fun the team had with this theme. I sure hope we'll see your card in the gallery!
Enjoy your day!
Supplies: Too numerous to list (sheesh) and mostly retired -- 2 stamps, 6 dies, 1 stencil, decorative edge scissors, designer paper, cardstock, on and on and on...
