Hey, Foxy!

Hello, fabulous friends!  Kim, of Kim Kreates back with you today. I have been dying to share this card with you!  As I mentioned, the other day, when I went shopping, I couldn't pick just one set to work with, so this is the second project that I created, this time using the Magical Enchanted Day Clear Stamp Set and the Fox and Wreath Die.

I had colored up the image with Copic markers (colors listed below) and die-cut it with the coordinating dies and set it aside.  I have always thought of the red fox as a somewhat mystical creature, as they are so elusive, so I wanted to create a card that was reminiscent of an enchanted forest.  I printed some gorgeous digital papers that I found on Etsy and I inked up the edges using Walnut Stain Distress Ink.
I die-cut the wreath 5 more times from white card stock, and I glued each layer together to allow the wreath to really stand out on the card and then I tucked the sweet little fox behind the wreath.  I heat embossed the sentiment in white on dark brown cardstock, die-cut it into a banner, and tucked it behind the wreath.  I adhered all of my elements on to my card base and finished it up by adding a dainty bow and some Pale Gold Nuvo Drops. 

Colors Used:

Wreath - G99, YG67, YG63, YG61

Mushrooms - E49, R59, R29, R24, Neutral Grays

Browns - E49, E47, E44, E43

Fox - YR18, YR27, YR24

When I first saw this beautiful stamp set, I imagined that I would create a shaker card with it, but after I started putting all of the elements together, I felt that it would be too much.  This has turned out to be one of my absolute most favorite cards!  I hope you love it too! 

Thank you so much for letting me share with you today!  I hope that you found something that inspires you!  

Xoxo, Kim
