Gopher A Coffee?

 

Hello and welcome. I hope everyone had a great Christmas.  Today I'd like to share a quick card made using images from Gerda Steiner Designs.  Now, if you're a last minute shopper for Holiday's, Birthday's or even Just Because, today's card makes a perfect gift card holder that you can personalize for any occasion.

 

I started out by stamping images from Gerda's Gopher It! (sold out at the moment) and Little Things in memento tuxedo black ink onto Copic© white card stock before coloring using my Ohuhu markers.  Once the coloring was finished, I lightly stippled some stormy sky distress ink, left over on my blending brush from another project, around the images then layered and added faux brads.  I then adhered the image panel to a dry embossed card base using glue dots.  The final touches were, faux stitches, bling, stickles, punched butterfly and a small gingham bow.  I then stamped the inside pocket, layered, and added a gift card.  I'm pretty happy with how this turned out.
