Step By Step Instructions:

• Die cut from Neenah Solar White paper all the elements you need, using the coordinating Farmyard Fun Dies and Heffy Doodle Mini Die Cutting Machine or Sizzix Big Shot Die Cutting machine. Save the negative parts of the dies.
• Stamp the outline illustration from Farmyard Fun Stamp Set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, using the negative parts of the dies as a guide for a perfect alignment inside the stamping positioning tool.
• Color the stamps with COPIC MARKERS. I used on this card:
  • skin E000-E00-E01-E11
  • yellow Y0000-Y00-Y13-Y18-Y21-Y23-YR24
  • blue B0000-B00-B91-B93-B95-B97-B99

  • grey C0-C1-C4-C5-C7
• Trim and score an extended A2 size card base (5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″) from Neenah Solar White paper.
• Secure Simple Sunburst Stencil with a low tack tape on the card front and ink it with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide inks, using the blending brushes.
• Lift up the stencil and keep inking the background with the leftover inks on the brushes to fill the white gaps.
• Die cut a hill from Neenah Solar White paper, using Slimline Scenery Dies.
• Ink the die cut element with Twisted Citron Distress ink, using again the blending brushes to achieve a smooth result.
• Pop the hill in place by attaching it with a foam tape.
• Stamp the sentiment from Udderly Fabulous Stamp Set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.
• Quickly mask the sentiment with a low tack tape  and splatter the whole background with some tiny droplets of a white gouache diluted with a small amount of water.
• Arrange and glue in place all the elements on the card front, using a foam tape and Glubert – Craft Glue.
• Finish with some highlights added with a white gel pen a couple of clear sparkling sequins.
