happy trails

Although I am happy with this card, I am sad to say it is for a friend that is moving :( These are the materials I used:

• happy trails stamp set by Lawn Fawn
• acrylic stamping block
• happy trails die cuts by Lawn Fawn
• versafine ink- onyx black and toffee
• Tim Holtz distress ink- picked raspberry
• copic markers- B0000, B00, B01, G43, G46, G82, YG13, YG11, V01, V04, R24, R27, N-10, Y02, T-1, T-2, T-3
• scrap paper- light green, dark green, beige, and outdoor related paper
• tape runner
• 1/8" foam tape
• scotch tape
• red & white striped cord (thread-like ribbon)
• pre-made recycled paper card

Front:

Water colors would be easier with this background, but I don't have any so I used markers instead. Here are the copic marker breakdowns:

trees- G43, G46, G82 (G46 goes on the outside, then G82 and G43)

trailer- YG11, YG13, V01, V04, T-1, B0000

tires- T-2, T-3, N-10

car- R24, R27, B0000, Y02

road- T-1, T-2, T-3

These are the copics I used for the background: B0000, B00, B01. I took the B01 and ran it along the edges and just a little on the front of the card. Then I used just a little of B00 to fade to a lighter color. Lastly, I used B0000 to blend all the colors together and to keep the center a very light blue color.

This is the card that I was mimicking:

This example and many others can be found on the Lawn Fawn blog.

Thanks for stopping by! Happy crafting trails to you all!
