A Sweet Little Fox

Happy Friday!  I hope everyone is ready for Christmas!  I'm almost there - but not quite.  For today's post I decided to switch things up a bit.  It's a little late for Christmas cards, so I thought I'd share a Valentine's card.  This card could also be altered for a birthday by simply changing the paper and sentiment.

I started with a piece of red card stock 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches that I scored and folded in half.  Then I cut a piece of patterned paper to 4 x 5 1/4.  I used the second largest stitched heart die to cut a heart from white card stock.

I cut the fox from Cajun Craze, the word "Love" from red and all other pieces from vanilla card stock.

I colored the bird, heart and fox nose and eyes using Copic markers.  I used B24, E99, Y18, R27 and black.  After gluing the tail tip and chest to the fox, I used a sponge dauber and Cajun Craze ink to shade him (or her).

I then assembled all the pieces for the final card.

This card goes together quickly and makes for a fun clean and simple card.
