Big Panda Card with Nicky

Happy Friday everyone it's Nicky with you today on the blog where I'm sharing a fun and super summery card featuring the Big Panda stamp set.

I ink blended a soft focal point on an A2 panel of white cardstock using Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink and glued this to my card base. I took another A2 panel of white cardstock and die cut using the Comic Strip Everyday Dies and created a simple frame by snipping out and discarding the 'window openings'. I backed this with dimensional foam tape. Before applying it to the background I also created some grass using the Mini Grass Border Dies and I ink blended the piece I created using Peacock Feathers and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Inks. I then glue the grass to the background panel and then layered over the frame.

The Big Panda images were stamped with Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black and I coloured the images using the following Copic marker combinations:

Blushes - R22, R21, R20, R00, R000

The images were die cut using the coordinating Big Panda Dies. I gave each panda a cocktail to hold using dimensional foam tape to secure it within their paws and I also used foam tape to put their sunglasses on. I then backed each one with more foam tape and tucked them behind the grassy border with their heads sweetly tilted together.

Time for the finishing touches! I added a flower to the ear of the Panda on the left. I die cut yellow cardstock using the sun image from the Comic Strip Everyday Dies and used Copic markers to add a little gradient colouring and I tucked it up under the frame and secured it with foam tape.

Last but not least I stamped the sentiments with pink ink. I fussy cut the 'hello' and added both words with foam tape and finished by highlighting a few points with a white gel pen and adding a few sparkling clear sequins for accents.

I hope you can squeeze some cardmaking into your weekend and I will be back with you again next Friday with something new to share.
