If Friends Were Flowers I'd Pick You Gnome Card

 Hi everyone!  Today I am sharing a card I created for Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes.  This gnome is so cute and I couldn't wait to color him!  He is larger stamp so next time I think I am going to try coloring him with my Zigs or Watercolors instead of Copics.  He uses a lot of ink!


This is a 5"x 7" card.  I used the largest stitched rectangle die in Waffle Flower's Lacy Layers 5x7 die set to cut a silver glitter cardbase.  I then used the largest scalloped die in that same set to cut a piece of Copic friendly white paper.  I stamped this super adorable Garden Gnome from Woodware Craft Collection, and colored him with Copic markers.  I cut teal cardstock to layer between my cardbase and colored panel.  I popped up the colored piece with foam tape for some dimension.  

I used a banner die from Newton's Nook Designs Frames and Flags die set to cut the banner for the sentiment.  I stamped the sentiment in black pigment ink, inked the edges of the banner in teal, and adhered it to my card with foam tape as well.
