My first post as a Design Team member of Oddball Art Stamps; wow, so surprised I got this gig with such a well known digital company. Well here goes - the January 2018 Blog Challenge Theme is "Feature a Creature", always optional of course. For this inspiration I checked out my Oddball collection and found "Sleeping Fox", what a cutie! Here is my photo of the image, I took a quote from Google and added it to the back of the fox, quite effective I think. From there I thought, now what sort of card will this be and the rest evolved. You will find the Blog challenge under current blog challenges over at Oddball Art Stamps.
This image is available in the Etsy shop and it is at a really good price too! I wasn't sure what to do with this image now it was mounted on the card and then I remembered some fox design paper I had in my stash. Then came the idea of using some pre-made stepper cards I bought ages ago, just the right colour - kraft; and from that I came up with a birthday card for a friend. The quote helped me come up with that. Here is another couple of photos to showcase the card. I have also used some Make It Crafty chipboard, my favourite chipboard for cards and a couple of embellishments from Rainbow Splendour, another Aussie business.
I hope you like Sleeping Fox just as much as I do and should you wish to purchase something from Oddball, feel free to use my special discount code DTGAIL10 to save a further 10% off your order.
