Backyard Boss by Dana Warren

Hello AI fans!!

Have you seen the new Simon Says Stamp & Art Impressions exclusive Terrier Stacker stamp set??? If you haven't you might want to check it out and get it before it's gone!!! 

Today I have a card featuring the Backyard Boss stamp! Need a birthday card for your favorite guy? Just stamp a Happy Birthday or add a handwritten message to the inside of the card!!


The first thing I did was pick out some paper and then picked out Spectrum Noir markers that matched the paper. I used these markers to color the image, this way everything matches! I used BGR3, BGR4, BGR5, DR3, DR5, DR6, EB1, EB2, EB6, FS1, FS3, IG1, IG2, IG4, IG6, IG8, IG10, TN7, TN8, TN9. When I was done coloring I fussy cut the image out.


Next, I used two stitched rectangles to cut some pattern paper. I added the striped pattern to a white card base and the brown faux leather pattern to the middle of the card. From the same pad, I cut a strip of gray chevron pattern and added it across the card. This strip is what my image 'stands' on, I have a thing about my images floating around in space, I just don't like it!!! :D  



Anyway, along the bottom I stamped the Backyard Boss sentiment in black ink. I added the image to the card with foam tape and last added a few cork dots.

Thanks so much for stopping by!!
