Hello and welcome to the Stamp ‘n Hop blog hop where we are sharing projects inspired by a sketch. I have chosen to make a painted fox card using a stamp set available for free with a £45 order from the Sale-a-Bration Brochure.
Colours used in this project are:
To recreate the painted fox card, you will need:
Starry Sky card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Garden Green card – 5⅝” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Ringed With Love dsp – 3 ½” by 2”
Ringed With Love dsp – 3⅛” by 3⅛” x 2
Basic White card – 3¼” by 3¼”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Basic White card – ⅜” strip
I began by gluing the 3 panels of Ringed With Love designer series paper to the 5⅜” by 3⅝” panel of Basic White card using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. This panel was then embossed using the Painted Textures Embossing Folder, doesn’t it look great?
The embossed panel was then glued to the Garden Green layer and then to the Starry Sky layer using the same liquid glue.

The stitched circle was lying on my desk, left over from another project and had been die cut, using the Stylish Shapes Dies and a 3¼” by 3¼” piece of Basic White card. I placed the circle into my Stampartus, placed the fox, from the Stylish Sketches stamp set onto the circle and picked it up with the door.

I inked the grass using a Garden Green Stampin’ Write Marker and the fox using a Cajun Craze Stampin’ Write Marker. I huffed on the stamp to re-moisten the ink and stamped down on the circle. I repeated the re-inking to get a darker image. I used a water Painter to blend out the ink n the fox and set it to dry.

Using Blending Brushes, I added Balmy Blue ink to the sky and Garden Green ink to the ground. The circle was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the Art Gallery stamp set was stamped in Garden Green ink onto the strip of Basic White card. It was trimmed down and flagged using Scissors and added to the card front.

So lovely Mo. Loving your colours & not a fan of Cajun Craze but you have used it perfectly. I had to look twice to see what papers you had used too. Thank you for joining Stamp ‘n Hop this month.
Thank you Vicky, glad you liked it. Have to admit I rarely use Cajun Craze x
