Critter Campout Framed Appreciation Card with Eloise

Hi everyone, Eloise here and today I'll be using the Critter Campout Stamp Set along with the new Fancy Frames Rectangles Dies to create my appreciation card. This Critter Campout set from the release is probably one of my favourites. It's super adorable and has a ton of image stamps to help set the scene along with loads of sentiments for many different occasions.

To begin my card today, I first started off with cutting out three frames from the Fancy Frames Rectangles Dies out of some white cardstock. Once my frames were cut, I measured them and then cut three additional rectangles from some watercolour paper for the backgrounds of each of them. Once those were cut, I used some Chipped Sapphire and Salty Ocean Distress Inks for the sky and Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn Distress Inks for the ground. I ink blended on all three pieces and once they were done, I added foam tape on the backs of the frames and adhered them to the backgrounds.

Next up, was to colour up my images. I stamped them all out on some white cardstock with some black ink and coloured them up using Copic Markers. I used lots of different shades of browns so all my critters would look different, as that's something I do find hard with woodland critters. Once they were coloured, I cut them out using the coordinating dies. Now, I added foam tape all along the backs of the critters and adhered them down onto each of my rectangle pieces, creating a mini scene in each of them. To adhere all these pieces onto my cardbase, I took a piece of grey cardstock and layered up all my frames. I did this by tucking each of the pieces under each other and then cutting off the excess of the frame going under any of the other pieces. Now that everything was adhered, I white heat embossed the 'Life With You Is An Adventure' sentiment onto a thin black strip. I then popped that up on foam tape and adhered it down onto my card as well. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I hope you feel inspired and you enjoyed my project today. I'll catch you all next time!
