Extra Texture at Tammy's Scrapin Corner

Happy Monday everyone. Yesterday Kevin got sick again with that awful stomach flu. I can't disinfect any more than I have, so I'm not sure what else to do. This is the second time he has had it and it is just awful. I'm glad it is only a 24 hour bug, but that doesn't help when you are going through it. So that was my Sunday... trying to take care of him as best I can. Although... Like me he doesn't want to be messed with so there isn't much you can do LOL That was it.. and I had to finish this card, so I worked on that.

Here is my card for Challenge #65: Extra Texture over at Tammy's Scrapin Corner this week:


The image is Little Boy from QKR Stampede. I love cute boy images with frogs and bugs !! LOL  I colored the image with Copic. The additional bugs and frog and that strip of jean are all stickers. The big frog at the bottom is a SandyLion Sticker from Little Boys Sticker Sheet. The jean strip, jar with the lightning bug and the strip of frogs on the inside are also from SandyLion and its from Little Boys Border Sheet. The bigger bug in the upper corner and all the little bugs are from Provo Craft - Meadow. I decoupaged some of the image.. the frog, front arm and slingshot. I popped a lot of the stickers. The extra texture came from the Jim Holtz Sizzix Embossing Folder. I added some chalk and used a brown Copic Multiliner to add detail to the brick embossing. I distressed the edges of the papers. The papers are all random papers from my stash... The green splat paper is Doodlebug, the green dragonfly paper is Bo Bunny and the boy words paper is Fundamentals. I created the sentiment which I put on the inside.

Copic:
Skin: E000, E00, E01, E11, R20, R22
Hair: Y21, Y23, YR21, Y38, E97, E99
Wood: E34, E35, E37
Rubberband: R20, R21
Shirt: BG01, BG05, BG07, BG09
White Highlights: E40

Wow the stickers don't look like stickers! Your coloring is amazing. I love that this card is so visual and even though there is a lot on there it looks good. Great card from a little boy to his dad.

Thank you for playing with us at Clearly iStamp - Father's Day Challenge. Regular scheduled challenges will begin on June 21st with new and exciting stuff! Hope to see you there!!
