Crafters Companion August Challenge Blog - Animals

Hello Everyone! Blimey, we are still getting this fabulous weather, even when it rains it's warm, absolutely loving it!

 

Animals is the theme for this months Challenge Blog.

I have chosen to go with Humphrey this month with his little friend. The stamp is from "A Year With Humphrey" range and is called Just Catching Up.

 

 I have used my So Mod Core'dinations card stock for matting and layering and embossed using my freebie embossing folder from Issue 2 of Crafter's Inspiration. The backing paper is from one of the Humphrey CD's.

 

I added gems, gold ric rak and some pearlescent thread which I found and not used before! Finished off with a Hello sentiment from the same stamp plate onto Die'sire Tags 1 and used a die from Ornamental Flower Frame to put Humphrey's little friend in!

I have coloured him using my Spectrum Noirs.
