Tawny Owl Paperie Inky Inspiration Sketch 25 ~ Full of Happy Hugs ~ Unity Stamp Co.

 Hello there crafty friend!

Today I'm sharing inspiration for the Tawny Owl Paperie Inky Inspiration Sketch Challenge 25 in the Tawny Owl Paperie Inky Inspiration Facebook group. I made this sweet card for a dear friend who just said goodbye to her furry friend.

I was surprised to find that I don't have many pet sympathy stamps. Actually I went through a good majority of my Unity stamps and this adorable stamp was the only one that I felt was really fitting. It's called Full of Happy Hugs. The title doesn't seem fitting but the stamp sure does. I know Unity has some wonderful pet sympathy stamps though. I need to add one or two to my wishlist and then my collection.

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

Skin: E000, E00, E11

Hair: E21, E23, E25, R35

Shirt: BG70, BG72

Dog: N0, N2, N4, N6

Grass: YG11, YG61, YG63

Here's a look at the sketch for Tawny Owl Paperie Inky Inspiration Sketch Challenge 25. 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 almost always tweaking it here or there. Today's card is no different since my focal image is on the right side and the sentiment is moved to the bottom left.

I paired up the adorable stamp with the Timeworn Paws Anthology {paper pack}. I thought it was fitting for a pet sympathy card. I die cut the background layer using the largest die from the Scallops & Rectangles {nesting dies}. I had a strip of the bones paper in my paper pack already cut so I also die cut it using the same die.

I fussy cut the Full of Happy Hugs stamp on the line and then I trimmed the sentiment. I adhered them directly to the card. And I added a few enamel dots to finish off the card. I sure hope you've been inspired and can play along with the sketch! Have an inktastic week!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Inky Hugs,

Crystal
