If you decide to hop on and play along in the Gerda Steiner Designs Progressive Challenge, then you can purchase this digital by clicking HERE (or on the watermark above to head to its location in the store). This way you'll receive next month's digital stamp for free.

Here are my card and details...


General Info: 
  • This card has been created 100% digitally and then layered in a poster mockup (courtesy of Design Bolts).  I will print it out and assemble it a later date.

FRONT
Digital Image Details: 
  • Hang in There You can find this image in the store.  Details above.  
  • This image was coloured partially digitally and partially with patterns and with paper piecing.
    • Credits:  
      • Fur and branch were paper pieced with textures found on the internet
           
Digital Embellishments: 
  • The frame was part of a limited time freebie bundle picked up at Inky Deals.
  • The brads are from the Brads & Buttons section of my A Touch of Class kit.



INSIDE
Digital Sentiment Details:
  • Another great sentiment created by Paulette from Create with TLC.  For great freebies and inspiration be sure to click HERE to go to Paulette's blog and for awesome sets for purchase, click HERE to go to the home page of the store.
  • I coloured the sentiment to match my project.


OVERALL
Digital Embellishments:
 
  • I have used basic shapes in Photoshop Elements to create matting in behind the sentiment on the inside.
  • I have applied shadow layer styles to give certain elements some depth.  These styles were designed by Sheila Reid, Pixel Scrapper.

Digital Paper Products:
  • The paper used as the base for the front and inside is one I purchased from Marisa Lerin, Pixel Scrapper.
