Ben and Jerry

This adorable duo are a digi stamp from Sweet November Stamps and are called Puppy Love - Ben and Jerry.

I couldn't resist colouring them in some bright happy colours. I used the following copics:

Skin: E37, E35, E21

Hair: C9, C7, C5, C3, C1

Eyes: E59, E57

Top: Y17, Y15, Y06

Jeans: B97, B95, B93

Dog: E99, E33   E55, E53  C5 for his nose and RV02 in his ears

Lead: R59, R35 and Y08 for his tag

I have made the orange and yellow stripey background piece by ink blending mustard seed distress oxide ink all over and then using the new release stamp from Time for tea designs essential stripes to stamp the orange lines with carved pumpkin and touches of candied apple distress oxide over the blended background.

I had even more fun making the yellow and green strip. For that I played with some alcohol inks on yupo paper for the first time. I first put spots of limeade and dandelion alcohol ink on a felt pad and tapped it all over my piece of yupo. To add a bit more depth to it I put more ink spots of Botanical alcohol ink onto a new felt pad on my mini applicator and added a few more spots of this darker ink over the top.

The amazing thank you sentiment is also from the new Time for tea release. I have to say I am completely in love with it. Its big enough to make a focal point on a card and a nice clear font. You can expect to see it quite a bit on my cards and creations :)

I am entering this card for the following challenges:
