Tawny Owl Paperie Inky Inspiration Sketch 24 ~ Incredibly Grateful ~ Unity Stamp Co.

 Hello there crafty friend!

Today I'm sharing inspiration for the Tawny Owl Paperie Inky Inspiration Sketch Challenge 24 in the Tawny Owl Paperie Inky Inspiration Facebook group. I'll be honest, not totally sure I'm loving how this card ended up. I love this stamp though and had to use it for my card! But not sure it's balanced or maybe it's just that I didn't ground the pumpkins. Not sure. 

Anywho, I really do love the Incredibly Grateful stamp that was just released over at Unity last week! This is the perfect stamp for Fall! I think I've mentioned before that I love to color pumpkins. They are one of my most favorite images to color. 

Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used to color this stamp up:

Oak Leaves: Y11, Y06, Y15, YR15, E55, R14

White Pumpkin: C00, C1, C3, E51, E55, E57

Orange Pumpkin: YR21, YR15, YR68, YR27, E51, E55, E57

Sunflower: Y11, Y06, Y15, Y38, E51, E55, E57, YG11, YG61, YG63

Berries: R20, R14, R35, R59

Branch: E51, E55, E57

Frond: YG11, E55

Here's a look at the fun sketch for Tawny Owl Paperie Inky Inspiration Sketch Challenge 24. The sketch, as always, is meant to inspire not require. So let the sketch lead in your design, but don't feel limited by it. I like to think my inspiration is usually a good example of this since I'm always adjusting the sketch. Today is no different since I turned the sketch for a landscape card and added the vellum layer to soften the background just a bit.

 My background layer is a beautiful piece of pattern paper from the Falling Leaves {paper pack}. I love the yellows and oranges in these papers! So perfect for Fall! I just used a scrap from my paper pack and adhered it to a Kraft A2 top fold card base turned on its side for a landscape card. The vellum was also a scrap that I trimmed down just a tad to make it a rectangle. Still using those scraps! 

I fussy cut the Incredibly Grateful stamp on the line and then I fussy cut the sentiment leaving a white border. I adhered them both to the vellum and then I added glue behind the pumpkins and sentiment and adhered the vellum to the card. I needed something on the left side to help adhere that side of the vellum so I added three enamel dots. Ugh... I was in a hurry to take the photos and get my blog post done so PLEASE ignore that the glue is visible around the enamel dots in my closeup photos. LOL! I know it'll dry clear and be just find. It is what it is. There's still time to play along with the TOPII Sketch 24! It ends on Monday, August 26th. I hope you can play along! Have an inktastic week!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Inky Hugs,

Crystal
