Jane’s Doodles Challenge #9 - Animals

Hello everyone.  It’s time for a new challenge at Jane’s Doodles and the theme is Animals.


My sister recently sent a video of my 4-year old nephew dancing (it was super cute btw) and I had him in mind when I made this CAS card. 


Started by stamping the turtles from Jane’s Doodles Belated Birthday with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on a scrap of X-Press It cardstock.  Masked the front-facing turtle, then stamped the boy from Jane’s Doodles Read All About It.  Coloured with Copic markers, then fussy cut them out.


Next, used a blender brush to add Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn distress inks on a Bristol panel for the background.  White heat embossed the sentiment from Jane’s Doodles All Occasions on a black strip.  Adhered éléments to the panel, then for some interest, die cut the panel with a decorative rectangle die (no longer available as company closed).  Attached to tan coloured paper, then mounted everything onto a white card base to finish.



Now it’s your turn.  Don’t let not having any animal stamps stop you from entering.  Check out the clever take from my teammate Kevin HERE.  Hope you will join us.  Thank you for dropping by.  Stay home and craft on.

This is so cute - what little boy doesn't love frogs? I love the one peeking in from the side. A fun, happy card with beautiful coloring, Trina. I love that kids are so uninhibited when they do things like dance. It is so wonderful to see and I bet he's a cutie.

Just imaging a 4-year old boy dancing is cute, but if that's your nephew, your heart must have melted.
This is such an adorable CAS card. The boy in a cap and the turtles are super cute!
