I Dig You Cards Follow Up

Were you wanting a closer look and more details on the cards I featured on the blog hop? Well, here it is! These are such fun cards, and they look more complicated than they are.

I snuck a little Crushed Curry in on this card, I just really wanted a rich and vibrant yellow for this truck! I have to admit, I love this color now. I really did not like it at all the first time around, and was not thrilled to see it come back. But now that I have gotten to play with it again, I really love it!! Maybe I just like the coordinating color selections better this time around.
  • Stamps: I Dig You

 I am still trying to use up the Print Poetry DSP pack, and this one has a little of that paper going on. I am really trying to add DSP to my papercrafting. No more stashing!  I embossing the Bobcat in Tangerine Tango, and the wheels are a little sneak peek from the new annual catalog-the new Simply Pressed Silicone Molds and Clay. I made the buttons and then colored them Early Espresso with my marker.

  1. I didn't catch the embossed chevron pattern (on the first card) before. Looks like tire tracks - perfect for the truck :)
