Today's Challenge

Yeah - finally got my Coon Wishes from CDS. This was the stamp of the month the month before I made the design team, but I had to have it! Today's challenge was Real red, kraft and black. So, I stamped the little raccon and decided that he just must have a buddy, so I stamped again! I colored both of the little guys with copics and cut them out. I cut into the one on the right a little so his buddy could sling his arm around his shoulder. Then I started with a kraft card base, layered with black, real red, kraft and basic grey. I cut basic grey and black with my curved rectangle nesties. The black was more than I wanted, so I just cut around the basic grey freehand. Next I stamped Hi, Friend on kraft, punched it with the small oval, added the large oval in black and tied on a ribbon. I also added ribbon to the card and called it done. It felt to me like it was missing something, but I was running late and had to get ready for work.

Such cute raccoons, I just love them - and the card you made from them. Thought the black looked narrow - well done on the great job trimming it down.

Hi Frenchy...Maybe some bling/brads/eyelets in the top corners to balance it more...or one of those corner dies perhaps?
