We're the Perfect Mix Card by February Guest Designer Lori U'ren

Hello Crafty Friends!

It's Lori here today with my last post as NND February Guest Designer! 
I have really enjoyed myself this month with these adorable stamp sets, just so much fun!

Today I'm using the Love Quarry Stamp Set, which I created as a masculine card! Perfect for the man in your life and not just for Valentine's Day!

This is such a fun stamp and I got a kick out of this sentiment that went along with the cement truck!

I began my card by stamping the images on #80 Neenah Desert Storm cardstock using Hero Arts Intense Black ink. I love how Copic coloring looks on this cardstock. After coloring the images I outlined them with a W4 and W3 Copic marker.

I die cut my panel with a rectangle die and thought that adding layers would give the card some visual interest. So I die cut a larger navy blue panel and an even larger panel with more of the Neenah Desert Storm. I adhered the first two panels using liquid glue, one on top of the other onto a navy blue A2 sized card base. I popped up the Copic colored panel with foam tape and wrapped orange twine around the panel and tied a bow. This is the twine we receive in our orders from NND.

To finished my card I added white highlights with a Gelly Roll pen and a little shimmer with a Nuvo Shimmer pen. And I found matching enamel dots in my stash which made me so happy! 

I always try to decorate the inside of card, so I die cut another piece of the Neenah Desert Storm, stamped the three cone images, then adhered it on the inside of the card base. And now my card is complete, I love the way this card turned out!
