Knitting Anya ~ Preview Day 2 ~ The Greeting Farm

 Hello there crafty friend!

It's Day 2 of previews at The Greeting Farm for the amazing October release. KNITTING ANYA is up next and OMG! LOVE her!! You know I make cards, but I also knit and crochet... so this stamp set is perfect! I love the pup included too with the comfy sweater. Too cute!

I inked up Anya, the pup, and a couple of the yarn stamps. I stamped all the images with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored them up with Copic markers that coordinated with the colors in my papers {minus maybe the knitting, because I started coloring before picking the papers and then stopped, picked the papers and continued to color}. 

Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:

Skin: E000, E00, E11

Hair: E70, E71, E74

Clothes: YR21, YR15

Knitting: B000, B00, BG000, BG34, RV10, RV02, V000, V12

Knitting Needles: C1, C3

Pup: E31, E35, E37, C0, C1

Pup's Sweater: YR20, YR31, YR23

Yarn Basket: E21, E25

Yarn in Basket: BG000, BG34, YR20, YR21, YR31, YR15

Yarn on the Side: YR20, YR21, YR15, C1, C3, C5, R20, R14

I went with a very classic design for this card and used pattern papers to create a scene. I used the I'd Rather Be Crafting paper pad from Echo Park Paper Co. I also used a piece of the pattern paper to paper piece Anya's chair. And another piece to mat the sentiment so it looks like a framed piece on her wall.

I fussy cut all of the colored images and colored the edges with a Memento Tuxedo Black marker. I adhered the pup's nose to Anya's chair, and then the basket and yarn to the bottom of the chair. Next, I covered the back with foam tape and popped them all up on the card. I finished this one off with a few glittery enamel dots from my stash.

Such a fun card to make! Be sure to stop by the TGF blog to see all the makes from the design team. The release goes live in the store on the 15th at 12am EST.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Inky Hugs,
