Card Design: Pattie's Creations Challenge #168…Anything Goes

Hello there folks! I'm popping in today to announce the next challenge over at Pattie's Creations Design Challenge. This time around for Challenge #168, the theme is Anything Goes. Since the field is wide open, there is no excuse not to enter one of your cards!


General Project Info:

• This card has been created 100% digitally and then layered in a Mock Up (courtesy of Frisk Shop). I will print it out and assemble it a later date. 

FRONT

Digital Image Details:

• Mice with Presents is available for sale in Pattie's Etsy shop. You can find it by clicking on the image name. This image has been coloured digitally. Credits include:
• Fur created by using a texture courtesy of Myshun (via Pixabay) in the background and then adding details using a fur brush courtesy of Obsidian Dawn
• The bow was altered using a layer style from HG Designs
• The gift boxes were paper pieced using papers from Poppymoon Designs (details below).
  

Digital Embellishments:

• The stitches were created with a brush and an action from Graphic Spirit obtained as a freebie over at Free Design Resources.
• The bow is from the Funky Flowers Set courtesy of Jeanine Baechtold, available at {Computer} Scrapbook.com.
• Trim is from the Cool Spring Day Set courtesy of Coreen Silke (also of {Computer} Scrapbook.com).

INSIDE

Digital Image Details: 

• I cropped out the top mouse from the Mice with Presents image to use on the inside. 

Digital Embellishment Details:

• Swirls are from the These Friends Set also courtesy of Coreen Silke.

OVERALL
Digital Paper Products:

• The papers used on the front and inside (as well as for paper piecing in the image) are from the Rainbow Birthday Patterns pack by Poppymoon Design (via The Hungry JPEG).

Digital Sentiment Details: 

• The sentiments used on the front and inside are from From The Heart Stamps Mouse Balloon set. Sadly due to the death of the owner, this company has closed down.

Digital Embellishment Details:

• I have used basic shapes in Photoshop Elements to create matting in behind the image and accents (front) and sentiment (inside).
• I have applied shadow layer styles to give certain elements some depth. These styles were designed by Sheila Reid, Pixel Scrapper.
