Hello all. For this card I started with the little chipmunk. I stamped him on some craft cardstock and then stamped him again on patterned paper (Unfortunately I used Teresa Collins Now & Then 6x6 paper pad and couldn't find a link ANYWHERE to it. I checked everywhere.) to get his tail and tummy. After I had him all paper pieced I used a leaf from a Hero Arts set and actually took the reverse side of the stamp to get a solid splotch of ink and then used it the right way with a darker colour of ink right on top. (Did that make any sense? haha. oh well.)
Then for the background I took a tiny leaf and acorn stamp and stamped them repeatedly across the whole card base in different colours. Then I stamped and cut the sentiment and adhered it flat and popped up the leaf and chipmunk. I also rounded the bottom corners!
I love the patterned paper I chose for the chipmunk. Besides the fact that it looks absolutely adorable. The words on it are also really suited towards the holiday. Like 'thankful'. It really is the little details! haha. Hope you enjoyed!
