Gordon Groundhog


Im diggin this gordon image! Hes too cute! I made this card for my husband. When I saw this image I knew I had to get it. Our anniversary is actually groundhog day!LOL! I colored Gordon using copics and added some texture to his fur and the dirt with my markers. I cut the image out and embossed using nesties. I also sponged a sky using versamagic chalk ink. This is the first time I've done this and I love how it looks!! After you emboss your image just leave it in the die and sponge away! The chalk ink wipes right off your nestie using a baby wipe. I used todays sketch challenge for my layout. I also used some DCWV animal crackers dp that Mama gave me.

e31, e33, e35, e37 (sand)
e55, e57, e59, (Gordon)

b00, b01, b02 (jeans)
yg11, yg17 (grass)
b21, b24, b29 (flower)
r20, r22(cheeks)
